More quotes by Philip Seymour Hoffman
People actually live with their id exposed. They're not good at concealing what's going on inside.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I have so much empathy for these young actors that are 19 and all of a sudden they're beautiful and famous and rich. I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'd be dead.'
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Study, find all the good teachers and study with them, get involved in acting to act, not to be famous or for the money. Do plays. It's not worth it if you are just in it for the money. You have to love it.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I think I would have drank myself to death, literally, if I didn't just stop, once and for all when I did. I am not ever going to preach to anyone about drugs or drinking. But, for me, when they were around, I had no self control.

Philip Seymour Hoffman
I don't get nervous when I'm directing a play. It's not like acting.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
If all people are encouraged to actually see who they're coexisting with, or even if they're not coexisting with other people.It's like to look at the world you're in.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I feel like I made a little bit of difference.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
The weight comes off, you know? If you stop with the bread and the pie, it really does. It really works.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
There's things that you don't want to do and they keep haunting you and following you. Bennett Miller directed this project [Capote], who is a friend of mine since I was 16, and Danny Futterman wrote it, and he's also been a friend of mine since I was 16.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
In life, do you ever really know if you're missing an opportunity? No, you really don't.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
My soul is in good shape.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I think you ultimately have to love who you're playing. You have to have that kind of feeling. You have to have passion for the person.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
