More quotes by Morgan Freeman
I just wanted to be an actor. It's better to be well-rounded.
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
I have four children and nine grandchildren. I'm presently wearing out my second wife.
Morgan Freeman
A scientist sounds like a scientist because the things that come out of their mouth don't stumble, that's all. If they [said], And the, um, a microwave, uh, you know, then you don't sound right, but if you can just get it out without stumbling then you're going to sound fine.
Morgan Freeman
When I was getting close to being accepted for pilot training, I was allowed to get in a jet airplane. I sat there looking at all those switches and dials and I got the distinct feeling that I was sitting in the nose of bomb. I realized my fantasies of flying and fighting were just that - fantasies.
Morgan Freeman
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.
Morgan Freeman
I'm not a comedian. I don't make things funny if they're not funny. I don't invent funny stuff.
Morgan Freeman
The surest way to lose at any endeavor is to quit.
Morgan Freeman
Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.
Morgan Freeman
I find it difficult to watch myself... I find it boring.
Morgan Freeman
Is listening important? I can't think of a single walk of life where it wouldn't be.
Morgan Freeman
These walls are funny. First you hate 'em, then you get used to 'em. Enough time passes, you get so you depend on them. That's institutionalized.
Morgan Freeman
Nelson Mandela was a man of incomparable honor, unconquerable strength, and unyielding resolve---a saint to many, a hero to all who treasure liberty, freedom and the dignity of humankind.
Morgan Freeman
How are we going to get rid of racism? Stop talking about it!
Morgan Freeman
Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'.
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
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
Being blind is as simple as closing your eyes. The blind don't act any different than you or I. You never see a blind person going around saying, 'I'm blind.' So if you want to play blind just close your eyes and keep them closed and fare thee well.
Morgan Freeman
We humans are more concerned with having than with being.
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
