Is listening important? I can't think of a single walk of life where it wouldn't be.
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
I had gone to school to work on technique and found it wasn't something that was really worthwhile to me, although it probably was.
Morgan Freeman
How are we going to get rid of racism? Stop talking about it!
Morgan Freeman
Part of acting is having the security to turn yourself loose and let yourself go in order to reach whatever depths a character has. If your guts aren't hanging out there, you don't offer anything.
Morgan Freeman
But I was 22 before I took my first dance class. I had never been athletic, so I was very stiff I still am. I think what I got mostly from dance was carriage.
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
If you're playing somebody who is not you, then you can imagine that you are that person. You can feel like he feels, move like he moves, look like he looks - in your own mind.
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
I knew at an early age I wanted to act. Acting was always easy for me. I don't believe in predestination, but I do believe that once you get where ever it is you are going, that is where you were going to be.
Morgan Freeman
In my home, who is my boss? If you ask my wife she'll say certainly not her. She claims that she can't make me do anything and so she's not my boss. I am. I'm pretty sure, maybe.
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
You know, the ancient Egyptians had a beautiful belief about death. When their souls got to the entrance to heaven, the guards asked two questions. Their answers determined whether they were able to enter or not. 'Have you found joy in your life?' 'Has your life brought joy to others?'
Morgan Freeman
I think you take a job, you owe it as much passion as the job itself demands. And most jobs demand that you be totally committed.
Morgan Freeman
If you're going to play a brain surgeon, you just have to learn how to say the words. You don't have to go and learn how to cut open somebody's scalp. I think acting is acting. Being is something else.
Morgan Freeman
If you get called on to help somebody pull focus to some good cause, that's good use of your fame. I don't try to avoid that.
Morgan Freeman
I was raised in Mississippi, so heat and humidity is my bread and butter. It keeps me going. I can't stand cold weather.
Morgan Freeman
Ive got a lot of life left in me and I want to live it doing things I like to do.
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
Freeman denied the claim that he was a “man of God”, saying that “the question of faith is whatever you actually believe is. We take a lot of what we're talking about in science on faith we posit a theory, and until it's dis-proven we have faith that it's true. If the mathematics work out, then it's true, until it's proven to be untrue.
