Your job is always the same if it's a juggernaut or if it's just one of these little jewels of a film that's gonna wind up at the Laemmle or something, so your job doesn't change whatsoever... give it your best shot.

More quotes by Morgan Freeman
I don't have anybody telling me what to say. I have people who would suggest, maybe, that I shouldn't do this, that or the other, but that's strictly up to me.
Morgan Freeman
There are things that I would like to do, but I make a big distinction between liking to do something and wanting to do something. If there's something that I want to do I've done it. If there's something that comes up that I want to do I will do it.
Morgan Freeman
I can only be so long without work before I start getting antsy.
Morgan Freeman
Working on stage is really a great voice developer.
Morgan Freeman
Is listening important? I can't think of a single walk of life where it wouldn't be.
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
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 was lucky in that when the opportunity came, I was prepared to meet it.
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 always wanted to be a fireman, a cop, an Indian chief, a doctor, a lawyer. I always wanted to be all these things, so I am drawn to these kinds of characters.
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
My parents were working in a hospital in Memphis. But I didn't live there for any length of time that I remember. The first thing I remember is the town in Mississippi that I live in now, Charleston.
Morgan Freeman
Never give up the ganja.
Morgan Freeman
Just that working with Clint again is like coming home.
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
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.
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
I like producing but acting is the quintessential me, and I'm probably better at that than I am at anything. My heart has always been in the movies.
Morgan Freeman
Let me tell you what justice is. Justice is the law. And that man's feeble attempt to lay down the principles of deceny.
Morgan Freeman
I like the character roles. Somewhere back there I really came to the conclusion in my mind that the difference between acting and stardom was major. And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they're going to go and see the story you're in.
