More quotes by Morgan Freeman
I had gone to school to work on technique and found it wasn't something that was really worthwhile to me, although it probably was.
Morgan Freeman
I always knew that someone was going to come at me with a script to play God. It's just one of those things, the way your career is unfolding and all the talk about gravitas etc etc, so I had a strong feeling that someone was going to offer me the part of God. I was totally prepared to say, 'Thanks but no thanks,' unless it was a comedy.
Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman
So we say, oh, my goodness we think we've found another Earth-like planet. We will start trying to figure out how to get there. And I have this strong belief that whatever we think we can do, whatever we can dream, we can do.
Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman
Insanity is coasting through life.
Morgan Freeman
Nobody is trying to save energy. We're trying to shift our use of fuel. Forget saving energy if we get the right kind of energy, there are endless amounts.
Morgan Freeman
Never give up the ganja.
Morgan Freeman
If you look back on your life and where you started from it's like looking back down a mountain back to the desert floor. It's like now I can't believe I had whatever it takes or perceived whatever it took to get here.
Morgan Freeman
Life doesn't offer you promises whatsoever so it's very easy to become, 'Whatever happened to... ?' It's great to be wanted. I spent a few years not being wanted and this is better.
Morgan Freeman
I grew up in the South but I started dancing in my twenties when I got out of the Air Force, and studying dance, you're surrounded by gay guys all the time. You get to know them and you have to shift gears!
Morgan Freeman
If I wasn't acting, I have no clue what I'd be doing 'cause I have no other talent.
Morgan Freeman
In my career? Me. I'm the boss. I'm the end all and be all. I'm the alpha and omega in that.
Morgan Freeman
Very often, you know, you stop walking because you say, 'Well, I'm tired of climbing this hill. I'm never going to get to the top.' And you're only two steps from the top.
Morgan Freeman
Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'.
Morgan Freeman
I just wanted to be an actor. It's better to be well-rounded.
