More quotes by Matthew McConaughey
Life is a series of commas, not periods.
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
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
There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
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
Maybe the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction, one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.
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
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
Every hero doesn't do this great big hero thing. They do the simple thing over and over... and they stick to it.
Matthew McConaughey
I know who I am. And after all these years, there's a victory in that.
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
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
Try not to make a straight line crooked.
Matthew McConaughey
Man who invented the hamburger was smart man who invented the cheeseburger was a genius.
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
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
I like quips. I like whiffs of cynicism and I think they can be witty. But I don't really know where wittiness is constructive.
Matthew McConaughey
A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
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
