More quotes by Marlon Brando
I only mean forty per cent of what I say.
Marlon Brando
Ask most kids about details about Auschwitz or about how the American Indians were assassinated as a people and they don't know anything about it. They don't want to know anything. Most people just want their beer or their soap opera or their lullaby.
Marlon Brando
The close-up says everything, it's then that an actor's learned, rehearsed behavior becomes most obvious to an audience and chips away, unconsciously, at its experience of reality. In a close-up, the audience is only inches away, and your face becomes the stage.
Marlon Brando
Would people applaud me if I was a good plumber?
Marlon Brando
Too much success can ruin you as surely as too much failure.
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
The close-up says everything.
Marlon Brando
It's the hardest thing in the world to accept a 'little' success and leave it that way.
Marlon Brando
An actor's a guy who, if you ain't talking about him, ain't listening.
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
Never confuse the size of your paycheck with the size of your talent.
Marlon Brando
Horror and moral terror are your friends.
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
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
In a close-up, the audience is only inches away, and your face becomes the stage.
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
Hey, you wanna hear my philosophy of life? Do it to him before he does it to you.
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
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
If there's anything unsettling to the stomach, it's watching actors on television talk about their personal lives.
