Romantic comedies are built to be light. They're built for a certain buoyancy.
Matthew McConaughey
I know who I am. And after all these years, there's a victory in that.

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.

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
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
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
Life is not a popularity contest. Take the hill, but first answer the question: What is my hill?.
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
I think I can keep a rhythm to a beat, but there are quite a few people who would argue with me.
Matthew McConaughey
There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
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
Cameras aren't guns. They can't really hurt you.
