What I'm doing is making an action-adventure film of mythic proportions.
Mel Gibson
Image
It's great that after 700 years William Wallace has finally had a proper burial. He did so much for the country. You should be proud of what you have achieved through devolution.
Mel Gibson
Image
My family means more to me than the artificial trappings of my career. If ever I had to choose between my career and my family, the wife and kids would definitely come out on top.
Mel Gibson
Image
I don't care if I don't act anymore.
Mel Gibson
Image
Writing is a hard gig, and it's hard to convey a lot. That's why scripts tend to be a little bit overwritten.
Mel Gibson
Image
There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark. I want to apologise specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested.
Mel Gibson
Image
I walked away from acting for eight years and tried to make the choice that I should have made when I was 21. But, it doesn't make any difference. Nothing changed. You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.
Mel Gibson
Image
Women in my family are the center of things. All good things emanate from them. The guys usually mess up.
Mel Gibson
Image
Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live…at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing' to trade all the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take…OUR FREEDOM?!
Mel Gibson

Women are just different. Their sensibilities are different.
Mel Gibson
Image
I've never treated anyone badly or in a discriminatory way based on their gender, race, religion or sexuality - period.
Mel Gibson
Image
It's said that I went into a rant, but I think it went on for about five words. I was drunk. It just turned into a big thing. I apologized profusely - not once but three times. So what's the problem? It's four years ago. Do I need to apologize again?
Mel Gibson
Image
Feminists don't like me, and I don't like them.
Mel Gibson
Image
I do what I can to sort of just stave off the clock - walk, swim, try and smoke an electric cigarette. I mean it's all bad for you. Life is bad. We're all dying. We're all in the process of oxidizing. Everyone of us is in the process of oxidizing so to sort of interrupt one aspect of that while everything else goes on, it's a freak show.

If you just read Joseph Campbell, who has written amazing books on mythology and religion, they all do come together at some point. There are some of the greatest stories that there have ever been in the Bible. All you have to do is read the book of Maccabi, it's like a film script.

Image
I'll get kicked around for saying it, but men and women are just different. They're not equal. The same way that you and I are not equal.
Mel Gibson
Image
I'm not a preacher and I'm not a pastor. But I really feel my career was leading me to make this. The Holy Ghost was working through me on this film, and I was just directing traffic. I hope the film has the power to evangelize.
Mel Gibson
Image
I love women. They're the best thing ever created. If they want to be like men and come down to our level, that's fine.
Mel Gibson
Image
I think any kind of hiatus one takes in an artistic journey is going to make a huge difference. The pause will inform the choices that you make.

You know what happens when you don't take a risk? Nothing.
