More quotes by Matthew McConaughey
I know who I am. And after all these years, there's a victory in that.
Matthew McConaughey
I tell myself I bear witness. The real answer is that it's obviously my programming. And I lack the constitution for suicide.
Matthew McConaughey
Life is not a popularity contest. Take the hill, but first answer the question: What is my hill?.
Matthew McConaughey
I like to be directed, but when I'm flying and I'm on fire, I don't want someone coming and getting in my way just because they feel like they need to.
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
By their fruits ye shall know them.
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
I do believe in God, but I think it's very healthy for a believer to spend time in the pragmatism of agnosticism, and I think God appreciates agnostics trying to make a science of it and going, I will not believe any further than that. I enjoy that kind of engineering mind. In no way did it ever feel blasphemous to me as a man of faith.
Matthew McConaughey
Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Matthew McConaughey
Vanity is great motivation, to be fair.
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
I want to thank God because that's who I look up. He's graced my life with opportunities. He's shown me that it's a scientific fact that gratitude reciprocates.
Matthew McConaughey
A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Matthew McConaughey
Give thanks. Appreciate what you DO have ... the more we give thanks, the more we receive to be thankful for. Gratitude is the gift that always gives back.
Matthew McConaughey
Life is a series of commas, not periods.
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 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
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
I don’t dabble and spend much mind or time dealing with, I don’t know, people’s perceptions of me. I truly don’t.
Matthew McConaughey
