More quotes by 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
That's your job as the actor, to understand the human part of the character, to make it real.
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
If your life turns out to be good and you have a tremendous amount of luck in your life, it's a good thing to turn around and make it work for others.
Morgan Freeman
I don't need any more press. I get enough when I work, but environmental causes is one place where you can get me to open my mouth. And put my foot in it if necessary. I think the only thing I do that gives me any bragging rights in terms of energy conservation is sailing. Just using wind power.
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
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.
Morgan Freeman
In my career? Me. I'm the boss. I'm the end all and be all. I'm the alpha and omega in that.
Morgan Freeman
The accident was a horrible thing - but that horrible thing made Chris, at the end of his life, Superman. It's a happy irony if there is such a thing. I'm proud to have known him.
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 once heard a wise man say there are no perfect men. Only perfect intentions.
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
There's an exercise we do where someone is sat behind you and you're asked to close your eyes and fall backwards. That's acting.
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
My roots were pretty far removed from high income. It's interesting to be back there at the level of income I have now, at this stage in my life.
Morgan Freeman
I try to keep my mind active. I'm a solitaire and puzzle addict. I exercise religiously. I don't do many things religiously and I've taken up golf to have something to do when I have nothing to do.
Morgan Freeman
Working on stage is really a great voice developer.
Morgan Freeman
But I can say that life is good to me. Has been and is good. So I think my task is to be good to it. So how do you be good to life? You live it.
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
I have four children and nine grandchildren. I'm presently wearing out my second wife.
