More quotes by Matt Damon
It's intuitive in terms of when I read a piece of material or I hear about a project. I'm a writer, so I've written movies. I've read at this point thousands and thousands and thousands of screenplays. So if something gets me, then I don't ignore that.

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.

Part of the American ethos is that you want to leave something better for your kids than you had and I know that my parents felt that way and I know that my grandparents felt that way and everybody worked hard so that their kids had a better chance. I just don't want to be the first generation that doesn't do that.
Matt Damon
I've passed on a lot of huge-money jobs. Money doesn't enter into the decision-making. If I do a big blockbuster, it's about how big an audience you'll get and where you can take them.
Matt Damon
I should have done it years ago. It's amazing I didn't even want cigarettes anymore.
Matt Damon

Still, the change is nearly indescribable - going from total obscurity to walking down a street in New York and having everybody turn and look to feel the temperature of a room change when I walked in.
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.
