Once I started taking drama classes, I asked myself why I had ever wasted so much time on a football team.

I think Hollywood is in love with sequels. If it's successful once, just jazz it up and shoot it out there again. I think it's unfortunate.

You discover a lot of things on your feet and if you don't have any rehearsal, then anything that happens on the screen is by accident.

I believe there can be dignity in the acting profession. And I think there ought to be more dignity in the publicity an actor gets.

I would like it if people would think that beyond Newman, there's a spirit that takes action, a heart, and a talent that doesn't come from my blue eyes.

The characters I have the least in common with are the ones I have the greatest success with. The further a role is from my own experience, the more I try to deepen it.
Paul Newman
Image
The big difference between people is not between the rich and the poor, the good and the evil. The biggest of all differences between people is between those who have had pleasure in love and those who haven't.
