More quotes by Mark Wahlberg
The only thing I don't like about acting is that it takes so much time away from my family. Otherwise, I don't have any complaints.
Mark Wahlberg
Every time I do a movie, I'm reading the script, or if it's something I have coming up, I'm reading the script, and I just spend hours and hours and days and weeks and months going over the script and just writing a lot of different ideas down, finding a little dialogue or just coming up with ideas for scenes and moments and all that kind of stuff.
Mark Wahlberg
Well, I would love it if they could take all the guns away. Unfortunately, you can't do that so you hope that good people in the world have them to protect the people who can't protect themselves.
Mark Wahlberg
If I am awarded a pardon for my philanthropic work, great if not, I will continue to be involved in the community and to work just as hard, if not harder, to prevent kids from going down the same road and making the same mistakes.
Mark Wahlberg
When you think about the person responsible for creating the character and the dialogue, Bill Monahan, who's a Boston guy, obviously, his words roll off my tongue quite nicely.
Mark Wahlberg
You know, there's nothing like seeing the smile on my kids' faces. Laughing together. Playing. It's the best.
Mark Wahlberg
I would definitely like to direct at some point. I've been very fortunate to work with some amazing talent and study them. But when the right time and the right story arrives, and I feel like I'm compelled to tell it, then I'll do that.
Mark Wahlberg
I just want to do the best possible job with everything that I do. But I'm far more concerned with being a good father as opposed to being a good actor because that's what's really going to matter.
Mark Wahlberg
I love being on sets with very seasoned directors as well as very new directors. Every time is a discovery process. You learn something new every time.
Mark Wahlberg
But no, I'm not political. My obligation is to pull the lever and elect somebody who's going to make life a little better for everybody, especially those who don't have as much good fortune as others.
Mark Wahlberg
If I'm not training then, gosh, anything: donuts... Kentucky Fried Chicken 20-piece hot wings... corned beef hash and eggs... But because I'm training, I'm eating very healthily: almond milk... Ezekiel bread... chicken... fish... I'm on a strict diet.
Mark Wahlberg
I approach everything the same. I try to make it as real as possible, whether you gotta make people laugh or make people cry, it's always the same approach for me. But if I start doing pratfalls, somebody please pull the plug on me.
Mark Wahlberg
Movies have kind of become a tad bit uninspired, in that the big studio movies are spending more money to chase the big money with all these franchises and superhero movies. Some of them have been great, but some of them are a little tiresome.
Mark Wahlberg
I've always been into working out and eating healthy. That's just who I am.
Mark Wahlberg
I don't want to let my guard down and feel too comfortable. If you become complacent, you start feeling entitled. I'm ready to go dig ditches if I have to. Whatever I gotta do to provide for my family. Whatever I gotta do to make sure that I do the best possible job at whatever wonderful opportunities I've been handed.
Mark Wahlberg
I grew up in predominantly black neighborhoods and went to predominantly black schools. And hip-hop is what I grew up listening to in my teenage years. Basically I'm just being myself.
Mark Wahlberg
I've always looked at my career as an athlete would look at his: I won't play forever. Some don't know when to walk away, but the smart ones do.
Mark Wahlberg
Hockey is probably one of the most expensive sports. You have to have a place to play. You have to have the proper equipment. You have to have the transportation to get there.
Mark Wahlberg
I never lie. I believe everything I say, so its not a lie.
Mark Wahlberg
If you're producing a movie you're involved in every aspect of the movie and that can be daunting and then going and doing a movie where you're just an actor for hire, and you can kind of sit back and giggle where you can see somebody sitting over there wasting time and wasting money.
Mark Wahlberg
