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.

More quotes by Matthew McConaughey
I don't know how to work a room. It's a real skill.
Matthew McConaughey
Now, you lose something in your life, or you come into a conflict, and there's gonna come a time that you're gonna know: There was a reason for that. And at the end of your life, all the things you thought were periods, they turn out to be commas. There was never a full stop in any of it.
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’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
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
I keep a diary - one for each film and foreign land I travel to.
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.

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
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 say to the paparazzi, 'Fellas, take your shot and go.' It's just they usually find me on a beach.
Matthew McConaughey
Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Matthew McConaughey
Sure, I can get a little bit jealous. The good part about jealousy is that it comes from passion. It's also the dangerous part and it's an ugly emotion that hurts.
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
We dissect failure a lot more than we dissect success.
Matthew McConaughey
It's one of the things I love about making films: the places I've got to travel that I would never have gone to before.
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
By their fruits ye shall know them.
Matthew McConaughey
I like the 'Alive' part. Now I've made it. Wait until you see the roles I could take after this. You're going to see my gut hanging over, plus 22lbs. It'll be a whole new kind of sexy!
Matthew McConaughey
