More quotes by Matt Damon
Generally, the bigger the budget, the less interesting the characters become.
Matt Damon
If there's an idea I think is really good and I feel like I can write it, then I'll do it.
Matt Damon
I'm always cautious about overstepping any boundaries. At the end of the day, it's a director's medium, and if they don't want to hear from me I just step back.
Matt Damon
History is change happening one person at a time.
Matt Damon
Most films and directors lose their nerve and want to indicate [emotions] a bit more, to show that their story is clear. I'm not saying that's a good thing as an actor its anathema to good acting, but to have someone with the confidence to say that should I be utterly natural and minimalist is great.
Matt Damon
For a lot of actors, our biggest fear is that we're going to start talking about things we don't fully understand and sound like idiots.
Matt Damon
I started really young, like 12 or 13, and then I started doing school plays. We had a really good drama department, so the kind of drama-geek stigma wasn't really there in my high school.
Matt Damon
Paranoid is what people who are trying to take advantage call you in an effort to get you to drop your guard.
Matt Damon
I was never that much a focus of interest that I became a 'thing' at an earlier point in my career. I'm aware of having become a 'thing' now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.
Matt Damon
I think what makes a good actor's director is somebody who understands what I'm doing and is respectful of it, but who also has a vision and is directing me toward their vision in a way that feels productive.
Matt Damon
Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you ARE the sucker.
Matt Damon
I've been really lucky. I'll completely forget that I'm a celebrity. And then something will happen, and I'll go, 'Oh, right.'
Matt Damon
The ideal life is you don't sell a single magazine, nobody's interested, but they want to come see your movie. Because that gives you true freedom.
Matt Damon
Clint Eastwood enables and allows things to happen. You walk on some sets and it's like walking into an emergency room. It's like, Come on guys, we're just making a movie here. That tension runs into the performances and into the movie.
Matt Damon
You know, a one-term president with some balls who actually got stuff done would have been, in the long run of the country, much better.
Matt Damon
It was shameful and embarrassing that there were two years in a row without a single actor of color nominated. That's insane.
Matt Damon
If Brad Pitt walked down the street, cars would crash into each other. I'm really lucky not to have to deal with that.
Matt Damon
The values that I have are the values I was raised with, from where I'm from, which is a middle-class place. So that informs everything about me, my politics and all that stuff. I mean, politically, I vote against my own self-interest at every election. I actively ask these people to raise my taxes.
Matt Damon
If anybody wanted to photograph my life, they'd get bored in a day.
Matt Damon
There are a lot of things that I really question - the legality of the drone strikes, these NSA revelations. Jimmy Carter came out and said we don’t live in a democracy. That’s a little intense when an ex-president says that. So you know, he’s got some explaining to do, particularly for a constitutional law professor.
