Morgan Freeman
Donald Trump is the Honey Boo Boo of rich people.
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!

I always tell my kids if you lay down, people will step over you. But if you keep scrambling, if you keep going, someone will always, always give you a hand. Always. But you gotta keep dancing, you gotta keep your feet moving.

When I was getting close to being accepted for pilot training, I was allowed to get in a jet airplane.

Morgan Freeman
My job, personally, is to do as much as I can to spread the warning that if we're not careful, it will end. The problem is, we don't think beyond our immediate needs.
Morgan Freeman
I think the educational value is what comes first. I've always thought that the most effective tools we have for disseminating information, i.e. education, is television and film.
Morgan Freeman
Somebody once said to me after I'd done Deep Impact, What is it like to play a Black president, and I said, I didn't play a Black president. I played a president. I just happened to be Black. There's a difference.
Morgan Freeman
It seems to me that I never grow unless I'm actually working with other actors who have shed whatever shell it is that keeps them insulated from each other.
Morgan Freeman
I'm making a great effort because sometimes life is not enjoyable. Sometimes it's painful and sometimes it's stressful, sometimes it's agonizing even, so I think once you get around those humps: strive for pleasure and peace.
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
I can only be so long without work before I start getting antsy.
Morgan Freeman
Marijuana prohibition is just the stupidest law possible....Jus t legalize it and tax it like we do liquor.
