More quotes by Marlon Brando
Never surrender to the momentum of mediocrity.
Marlon Brando
Regret is useless in life. It's in the past. All we have is now.
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
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 you're successful, acting is about as soft a job as anybody could ever wish for. But if you're unsuccessful it's worse than having a skin disease.
Marlon Brando
(...the non-conformist, how do you keep from getting scarred?)/i don’t! i got a scar here…and uh i got a scar on my knee…and uh a few scars on my soul.
Marlon Brando
I put on an act sometimes, and people think I’m insensitive. Really, it’s like a kind of armor because I’m too sensitive. If there are two hundred people in a room and one of them doesn’t like me, I’ve got to get out.
Marlon Brando
Acting is an empty and useless profession.
Marlon Brando
It's a long climb up Fools' Hill.
Marlon Brando
I only mean forty per cent of what I say.
Marlon Brando
An actor's a guy who, if you ain't talking about him, ain't listening.
Marlon Brando
We only have so many faces in our pockets
Marlon Brando
Most of the successful people in Hollywood are failures as human beings.
Marlon Brando
Sometimes you just get the feeling that here it is 11o'clock in the morning and you're not in school.
Marlon Brando
All I want to be is normally insane.
Marlon Brando
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse.
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
Horror and moral terror are your friends.
Marlon Brando
Too much success can ruin you as surely as too much failure.
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.
