I was lucky in that when the opportunity came, I was prepared to meet it.
Morgan Freeman
Hey, if I don't have a job, I don't know why I bother to get up. Any time the phone rings, I'm ready to go. What else am I going to do? See, I've never retired. I don't even know what it means.
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.

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.

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
I just wanted to be an actor. It's better to be well-rounded.
Morgan Freeman
Playing is no challenge every time that you get a role you get to go play with other people in the sandbox and so there is no challenge, real challenge. The challenge, the major challenge is getting the work, finding the sandbox.
Morgan Freeman
And some places you been before are so great that you don't ever mind going back. Some places you been before you don't ever want to go back, you know, like Montreal in the Winter.
Morgan Freeman
I think one of the things when you're casting children is you're also casting their parents.
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
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
The surest way to lose at any endeavor is to quit.
Morgan Freeman
I was very lucky once I got started with a career. I happened to get some really good parts to play with some really good people to play with.
Morgan Freeman
I don't do comedy. I think if a situation is funny you just play it for real and if it's funny, it's funny.
Morgan Freeman
The odds are lousy that I actually said something attributed to me.
