More quotes by Matthew McConaughey
I know who I am. And after all these years, there's a victory in that.
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
The law says you cannot touch, but I see a lot of lawbreakers up in this house.
Matthew McConaughey
When I'm surfing, I'm sure not thinking about the paparazzi. I guess if they start getting on floaties and coming out there in the water, then I might be a little upset.
Matthew McConaughey
My favorite dish is cleaning out the fridge on Sunday night and improvising a great medley.
Matthew McConaughey

Matthew McConaughey
Vanity is great motivation, to be fair.
Matthew McConaughey
I hated repeating myself. The last films I've done - not once did I ever have the feeling that I was dialing it in.
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
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
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
Romantic comedies are built to be light. They're built for a certain buoyancy.
Matthew McConaughey
One of the great pleasures of going to see a Daniel Day-Lewis film: you haven’t seen him in five years. Where have you been? So, it’s a special event, right? Well, if you want to go see a movie that I’m in, it still may be a special event for you, but, you don’t feel like you don’t know where I’ve been.
Matthew McConaughey
Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you get good at.
Matthew McConaughey
A foolish man... built his house upon the sand.
Matthew McConaughey
I love Los Angeles, and it's been very good to me, but if everyone is running around telling the stories, who's living them? You don't play characters that are celebrities - you play guys who know what to do when their septic tank's blocked.
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
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Matthew McConaughey
We dissect failure a lot more than we dissect success.
Matthew McConaughey
Life is a series of commas, not periods.
