More quotes by Martin Sheen
I just think that the only way we come to ourselves is through each other.
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.
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
I was a celebrity. This is not what I do for a living - politics. I play politicians, as well as working class or clergy or whatever, and you mustn't be confused by what you're seeing on television because that's not who I am. So I always ended it.
Martin Sheen
I think he [President Clinton] was probably the brightest President of the 20th century.
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
Oh you only fight the fights you can win? You fight the fights that need fighting!
Martin Sheen
There is no greater virtue than honesty.
Martin Sheen
This supposed idyllic society we have is the most confused, warped, addicted society in the history of the world. We are addicted to power, we're addicted to our own image of ourselves, to violence, divorce, abortion, and sex.
Martin Sheen
My first civil disobedience arrest for social justice was in 1986 for protesting the SDI.
Martin Sheen
The most satisfying thing in my life and my career is to work with my children.
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
I don't like scary films. I watched Psycho for the first time recently, alone in the house at night. That was a mistake. I had to call my friend to come over.
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
Stop going for the easy buck and start producing something with your life. Create, instead of living off the buying and selling of others.
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
Theres no way that I could be the president. You cant have a pacifist in the White House... Im an actor. This is what I do for a living.
Martin Sheen
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
Find something in your life worth fighting for
Martin Sheen
While acting is what I do for a living, activism is what I do to stay alive.
