More quotes by Marlon Brando
Like a large number of men, I, too, have had homosexual experiences and I am not ashamed. But if there is someone who is convinced that Jack Nicholson and I are lovers, may they continue to do so. I find it amusing.
Marlon Brando
If there's anything unsettling to the stomach, it's watching actors on television talk about their personal lives.
Marlon Brando
An actor's a guy who, if you ain't talking about him, ain't listening.
Marlon Brando
Too much success can ruin you as surely as too much failure.
Marlon Brando
It's the hardest thing in the world to accept a 'little' success and leave it that way.
Marlon Brando
In a close-up, the audience is only inches away, and your face becomes the stage.
Marlon Brando
The military mind has one aim, and that is to make soldiers react as mechanically as possible. They want the same predictability in a man as they do in a telephone or a machine gun, and they train their soldiers to act as a unit, not as individuals.
Marlon Brando
There's a line in the picture where he snarls, 'Nobody tells me what to do.' That's exactly how I've felt all my life.
Marlon Brando
Hey, you wanna hear my philosophy of life? Do it to him before he does it to you.
Marlon Brando
I think awards in this country at this time are inappropriate to be received or given until the condition of the American Indian is drastically altered. If we are not our brother's keeper, at least let us not be his executioner.
Marlon Brando
It is a simple fact that all of us use the techniques of acting to achieve whatever ends we seek.
Marlon Brando
People around me never say anything. They just seem to want to hear what I have to say. That's why I do all the talking.
Marlon Brando
The more sensitive you are, the more certain you are to be brutalized, develop scabs, never evolve. Never allow yourself to feel anything, because you always feel to much.
Marlon Brando
Never surrender to the momentum of mediocrity.
Marlon Brando
I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture.
Marlon Brando
Acting, in general, is something most people think they're incapable of, but they do it from morning to night. The subtlest acting I've ever seen is by ordinary people trying to show they feel something they don't, or trying to hide something. It's something everyone learns at an early age.
Marlon Brando
We make up any excuse to preserve myths about people we love, but the reverse is also true if we dislike an individual we adamantly resist changing our opinion, even when somebody offers proof of his decency, because it's vital to have myths about both the gods and devils in our lives.
Marlon Brando
Even today I meet people who think of me automatically as a tough, insensitive, coarse guy named Stanley Kowalski. They can't help it, but, it is troubling.
Marlon Brando
The most repulsive thing you could ever imagine is the inside of a camel's mouth. That and watching a girl eat octopus or squid.
Marlon Brando
Regret is useless in life. It's in the past. All we have is now.
Marlon Brando
