Matthew McConaughey
Cameras aren't guns. They can't really hurt you.
Matthew McConaughey
I'm a golfer, and what are the two sports you can do till you drop? Golf and surfing. They're great for you limber-wise, they're great for you health-wise, and they put you in sweet locations.
Matthew McConaughey
Each of the films, whether it’s Magic Mike or Dallas Buyers Club, was a challenge for me. I had to dig deeper. Also, my decision to shake things up came after my first child was born. I had taken nearly two years off and I thought that I would enjoy my time as a dad and wait until something interesting came along.

Traveling is a great love of mine. I love South America and Africa. I'm your ultimate backpacker when I'm away. It's just me and my backpack. It's good for getting away from the industry.

My father – who I know is up there right now, with a big pot of gumbo, he’s got a lemon meringue pie, he’s probably in his underwear, and he’s got a cold can of Miller Lite – and he’s dancing.
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 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
See, 'A Time to Kill' was the one I got famous off of. Big ka-boom, over one weekend. After that, I did films that I really wanted to do.
Matthew McConaughey
Romantic comedies are built to be light. They're built for a certain buoyancy.
Matthew McConaughey
When I see grace in a woman, that's very sexy. You can tell by how someone moves or their rhythm.
Matthew McConaughey
It's one of the things I love about making films: the places I've got to travel that I would never have gone to before.
Matthew McConaughey
I want to thank God because that's who I look up. He's graced my life with opportunities. He's shown me that it's a scientific fact that gratitude reciprocates.
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
If you can be mentally stimulated by the workout and find out how to get through it, it's more fun.
Matthew McConaughey
Now, you lose something in your life, or you come into a conflict, and there's gonna come a time that you're gonna know: There was a reason for that. And at the end of your life, all the things you thought were periods, they turn out to be commas. There was never a full stop in any of it.
Matthew McConaughey
Life is a series of commas, not periods.
