More quotes by Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman
I think the best thing somebody ever did to me was my mother opening her legs and squirting me out.
Morgan Freeman
Doing comedy is as easy as doing anything else. You're dependent totally on the material.
Morgan Freeman
Was I always going to be here? No I was not. I was going to be homeless at one time, a taxi driver, truck driver, or any kind of job that would get me a crust of bread. You never know what's going to happen.
Morgan Freeman
I can only be so long without work before I start getting antsy.
Morgan Freeman
I think one of the things when you're casting children is you're also casting their parents.
Morgan Freeman
Write something insightful. Say Morgan Freeman said it. Win at internet.
Morgan Freeman
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.
Morgan Freeman
Growing up in Mississippi, I realized that it was separate and unequal and all that, but it was still a safe place.
Morgan Freeman
If you sat down and you wrote a script, you may write something that's way beyond what you've ever seen me do, but if you thought of me to do it, I would be flattered to be asked to do something other than be wise.
Morgan Freeman
I've always been a fan of or desired to or responded to variety. I like variety in life, so variety in work is a must.
