Cameras aren't guns. They can't really hurt you.
Matthew McConaughey
I say to the paparazzi, 'Fellas, take your shot and go.' It's just they usually find me on a beach.
Matthew McConaughey
My experience in work, even going to work with Scorsese, is that people always think there's some magic trick. There's no magic trick. The people who are really good at what they do do simple things really, really well.
Matthew McConaughey
They eat, they crap, they sleep, and if they're crying they need to do one of the three and they're having trouble doing it. Real simple.
Matthew McConaughey
A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Matthew McConaughey
I only pick one thing North, South, East or West. I just get on the road and go. That's the point. The only governor I give myself is what's the time limit.
Matthew McConaughey
I'm a football fan, a sports fan, a fan of competition.

As an actor for hire, my job is to do some pre-production work for myself. Then my job is to show up and give the best performance I can.

I like to customize things. I customized the back of old Lincoln to be my mobile office. I had one of those little laptop desks like in a police car, and I had a cooler in there, so that was my mobile office.

Having children has helped me become a better actor because they remind you to play make believe. It's the ease and naturalness of their beings. They just play and it's completely real for them at the time. As an actor, if we do it well, we make you believe.
Matthew McConaughey
I love good film, whether it's an independent or studio film. The independent films, I think the good ones aren't necessarily eccentric ones but they're the more specific ones.
Matthew McConaughey
I never go online on my iPhone. Sometimes I'm tempted but I remind myself and the kids - it's a tool. Use it as a tool. You're not the tool. My iPhone, 85% of the time I'm writing down ideas.
Matthew McConaughey
A foolish man... built his house upon the sand.
Matthew McConaughey
Bringing a baby into the world is something I've always wanted, and now I'm completely ready for my life to start revolving around another human being.

My rule is to break one sweat a day.
Matthew McConaughey
Life is not fair, it never was and it is now and it won't ever be. Do not fall into the trap. The entitlement trap, of feeling like you're a victim. You are not.
Matthew McConaughey
I’m a fan of the word selfish. Self. Ish. When I say I have gotten a lot more self-ish, I mean I am less concerned with what people think of me. I’m not worried about how I’m perceived. Selfish has always gotten a bad rap. You should do for you.

I don't know how to work a room. It's a real skill.
