Insanity is being shit on, beat down, coasting through life in a miserable existence when you have a caged lion locked inside and a key to release it.

I'm not a comedian. I don't make things funny if they're not funny. I don't invent funny stuff.
Morgan Freeman
I don't think that anyone learns anything. Well, I mean, you do always learn something if you have your eyes and ears open. You do learn something from every outing, every time that you go for it. But for me what actors do is interact and that's why you have to do that.
Morgan Freeman
Flip on the news and watch how we treat the Batman theater shooter and the Oregon mall shooter like celebrities. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris are household names, but do you know the name of a single ‘victim’ of Columbine?
Morgan Freeman
I remember saying to my agent, Listen, everybody's going out to Hollywood and making movies. I think I ought to go out there. And his advice to me was, I wouldn't do that if I were you. If they want you in Hollywood, they'll send you. And sure enough, they did.
Morgan Freeman
I like the character roles. Somewhere back there I really came to the conclusion in my mind that the difference between acting and stardom was major. And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they're going to go and see the story you're in.
Morgan Freeman
Marijuana prohibition is just the stupidest law possible....Jus t legalize it and tax it like we do liquor.
Morgan Freeman
Let me be the first to tell you, drinking alcohol is the worst thing to do in cold weather. Hot soup is the best because the process of digesting food helps to warm you up.
Morgan Freeman
Never give up the ganja.

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
In the harshest place on Earth, ... love finds a way.
Morgan Freeman
And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they're going to go and see the story you're in.
Morgan Freeman
I'm easy going for the most part but sometimes in the morning if I didn't sleep well I can be kind of grumpy. But my grumpiness doesn't have that much to do with my dissatisfaction with my station in life.
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 hate the word homophobia. It's not a phobia. You are not scared. You are an asshole.
Morgan Freeman
One day very soon, we'll be asked: what did we do. And we will say: we did everything we could... we have to... because if we don't there won't be anyone left to ask. We have never faced a crisis this big, that we have never had better ideas to solve. This is our only home. We can choose today to make a world of difference.
Morgan Freeman
Doing comedy is as easy as doing anything else. You're dependent totally on the material.
Morgan Freeman
I think you have to be left-brained, to a certain extent, to understand science. I can talk about it, but I can't do it.
Morgan Freeman
Never let pride be your guiding principle. Let your accomplishments speak for you.
Morgan Freeman
Working on stage is really a great voice developer.
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.
