More quotes by Matthew McConaughey
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
When I see grace in a woman, that's very sexy. You can tell by how someone moves or their rhythm.
Matthew McConaughey
There's a difference in thinking you are a champion and knowing that you are.

If you can be mentally stimulated by the workout and find out how to get through it, it's more fun.
Matthew McConaughey
Yes, it is the Big Easy, home of the shortest hangover on the planet, where libation can greet you on Monday morning with the same smile as it did on Saturday night.
Matthew McConaughey
If happiness is what you’re after, then you are going to be let down frequently and be unhappy much of your time. Joy, though, is something else. It’s not a choice, not a response to some result, it is a constant. Joy is “the feeling we have from doing what we are fashioned to do,” no matter the outcome.
Matthew McConaughey
I do believe in God, but I think it's very healthy for a believer to spend time in the pragmatism of agnosticism, and I think God appreciates agnostics trying to make a science of it and going, I will not believe any further than that. I enjoy that kind of engineering mind. In no way did it ever feel blasphemous to me as a man of faith.
Matthew McConaughey
I don’t dabble and spend much mind or time dealing with, I don’t know, people’s perceptions of me. I truly don’t.
Matthew McConaughey
Absolutely not. I have no problem with commitment. In fact, I love having someone in my life.
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.
Matthew McConaughey
For me, one of the toughest things about Valentine's Day is that it gets geared up as the day to profess your love. See, T-E-S-T - that's a bad word that doesn't go with L-O-V-E.
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.
Matthew McConaughey
Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
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
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.
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 don't know how to work a room. It's a real skill.
Matthew McConaughey
When you've got God, you got a friend. And that friend is you.
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 keep a diary - one for each film and foreign land I travel to.
