Hey, if I don't have a job, I don't know why I bother to get up. Any time the phone rings, I'm ready to go. What else am I going to do? See, I've never retired. I don't even know what it means.
Morgan Freeman

It's seldom that you get to work with one director more than once. I've worked with Clint Eastwood three times, but that's the only one that's happened with, simply because I adore his work.
Morgan Freeman
Image
I feel fine, I don't care who the director is. All you have to do is know what your doing - all of us - everybody in the business - that's all you ask anyone - you know your job, I know mine, let's go do it.

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.
Morgan Freeman
Image
I like producing but acting is the quintessential me, and I'm probably better at that than I am at anything. My heart has always been in the movies.
