More quotes by Martin Sheen
The most satisfying thing in my life and my career is to work with my children.
Martin Sheen
I don't think abortion is a good idea. I personally am opposed to abortion, but I will not judge anybody else's right in that regard because I am not a woman and I could never face the actual reality of it.
Martin Sheen
Jim Dean and Elvis were the spokesmen for an entire generation. When I was in acting school in New York, years ago, there was a saying that if Marlon Brando changed the way people acted, then James Dean changed the way people lived. He was the greatest actor who ever lived. He was simply a genius.
Martin Sheen
I am not a politician or a public servant. I am still a journeyman actor and a peace and justice activist. I'm a pilgrim trying to win my freedom and serve as best I can in the time I have, with this gift I've been given.
Martin Sheen
We have to fight for something. It has to cost us. Our lives, our faith, have to cost us something otherwise we're left to question its value.
Martin Sheen
I have been accused of being a traitor, and I have been accused of not supporting the military. Nothing could be further from the truth. The leaders are the ones who make the decisions. The soldiers do not have the choice. I support the soldiers as human beings.

George W Bush is like a bad comic working the crowd, a moron, if youll pardon the expression.
Martin Sheen
I am a very conscientious golfer. I count every stroke. I learned to play that way. That is the only way I can play. It taught me to be honest. There is no greater virtue than honesty.
Martin Sheen
If you are on an honest journey to find yourself, you'll find God.
Martin Sheen
It doesn't really matter how much of the rules or the dogma we accepted and lived by if we're not really living by the fundamental creed of the Catholic Church, which is service to others and finding God in ourselves and then seeing God in everyone - including our enemies.
Martin Sheen
I think [Bush] would like to hand his father Saddam Hussein's head and win his approval for what happened after the Gulf War.
Martin Sheen
If all of the issues that I have worked on were depending on some measure of success, it would be a total failure. I don't anticipate success. We're not asked to be successful, we are only asked to be faithful. I couldn't even tell you what success is.
Martin Sheen
No matter what is going on, everything is grace.
Martin Sheen
I have been accused of being a traitor, and I have been accused of not supporting the military. Nothing could be further from the truth.
