More quotes by Paul Newman
For some players, luck itself is an art
Paul Newman
I had no natural gift to be anything - not an athlete, not an actor, not a writer, not a director, a painter of garden porches - not anything. So I've worked really hard, because nothing ever came easily to me.
Paul Newman
I don't think there's anything exceptional or noble in being philanthropic. It's the other attitude that confuses me.
Paul Newman
An actor has to evaluate his own abilities and be honest with himself.
Paul Newman
I have taken roads that I wished I had not traveled on. And I'm traveling on some pretty exciting ones, too.
Paul Newman
I respect generosity in people, and I respect it in companies too, I don't look at it as philanthropy I see it as an investment in the community.
Paul Newman
How many honest men do you know? Take the sinners away from the saints, you're lucky to end up with Abraham Lincoln.
Paul Newman
It happens to everybody, horses, dogs, men. Nobody gets out of life alive.
Paul Newman
I'm like a good cheese. I'm just getting mouldy enough to be interesting.
Paul Newman
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.
Paul Newman
I wanted, I think, to acknowledge Luck: the chance of it, the benevolence of it in my life, and the brutality of it in the lives of others made especially savage for children because they may not be allowed the good fortune of a lifetime to correct it.
Paul Newman
Husbands and wives should have separate interests, cultivate different sets of friends and not impose on the other... You can't spend a lifetime breathing down each other's necks... We are very, very different people and yet somehow we fed off those varied differences and instead of separating us, it has made the whole bond a lot stronger.
Paul Newman
It's absolutely amazing that I survived all the booze and smoking and the cars and the career.
Paul Newman
It's been a privilege to be here.
Paul Newman
While progress should never come to a halt, there are many places it should never come to at all.
Paul Newman
I'm a very competitive person. I always have been. And it's hard to be competitive about something as amorphous as acting. But you can be competitive on the track, because the rules are very simple and the declaration of the winner is very concise.
Paul Newman
The Alexander Technique helped a long-standing back problem and to get a good night's sleep after many years of tossing and turning.
Paul Newman
I don't like gossip stories. Facts are okay. But when gossips begin making items, that's something else again.
Paul Newman
I was terrorized by the emotional requirements of being an actor. Acting is like letting your pants down you're exposed.
Paul Newman
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.
