I like to customize things. I customized the back of old Lincoln to be my mobile office. I had one of those little laptop desks like in a police car, and I had a cooler in there, so that was my mobile office.
Matthew McConaughey
I’m a fan of the word selfish. Self. Ish. When I say I have gotten a lot more self-ish, I mean I am less concerned with what people think of me. I’m not worried about how I’m perceived. Selfish has always gotten a bad rap. You should do for you.
Matthew McConaughey
Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you get good at.

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
My favorite dish is cleaning out the fridge on Sunday night and improvising a great medley.

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.

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
The one thing that will be the bane of my existence with my kid will probably be the way he or she is most like me in some ways.
Matthew McConaughey
Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Matthew McConaughey
I know who I am. And after all these years, there's a victory in that.
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
Good ideas are free - or at least they should be.
Matthew McConaughey
There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew McConaughey
By their fruits ye shall know them.
Matthew McConaughey
We dissect failure a lot more than we dissect success.
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
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 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
Music is a really great creative tool for me, for different roles.
