More quotes by Richard Gere
I do my work as an actor, but another part of my work goes to the piece as a whole. I can be fairly detached looking at my work and be brutal on myself.
Richard Gere
Shooting in New York can be a problem... I had to walk through a crowd, come in the front door, and play the scene.
Richard Gere
Why is it when we have 10 million people in this country who say 'No', we still have a president who says 'Yes.' In a democracy, something's wrong here.
Richard Gere
I've had an interesting life.
Richard Gere
The idea of fixing of healing is an important part of any genuine spiritual approach. Kabbalah is very much about this idea of fixing of things that have been damaged. From a Buddhist point of view, things have been damaged because ignorance has intoxicated the mind.
Richard Gere
I don't think that bravery is about skin. Bravery is about a willingness to show emotional need.
Richard Gere
Maybe the Dalai Lama is the only person who is totally honest, and even with him, he's skillful not to hurt anybody. He's skillful.
Richard Gere
I think that as human beings we tend to compartmentalize, and we have a selective morality based on the situation we're in.
Richard Gere
If the United States marches into Iraq without the backing of the United Nations, that will be done entirely without the backing of the American people.
Richard Gere
I've lived in New York when I've had nothing, and I've lived in New York when I had money, and New York changes radically depending on how much money you have. It's the texture of life.
Richard Gere
Tibetan Buddhism had an enormous impact on me.
Richard Gere
I do think that good actors can do any part. It doesn't mean that they are the best ones to do it.
Richard Gere
I'm rarely in a situation where, if you have a good idea, it's not embraced. That's stupid. And I don't work with stupid people.
Richard Gere
I've always maintained that all characters and all personalities are in all of us. The whole thing is available. You're not this or that, no one is.
Richard Gere
Everyone seems to think they know what acting techniques are. Techniques just help you get to a certain place, but if the thing is happening just by itself you don't need those techniques.
Richard Gere
I can't say I have control over my emotions I don't know my mind. I'm lost like everyone else. I'm certainly not a leader.
Richard Gere
I haven't worked with people who are jealous or competitive. That's a particularly deadly attitude to have when you're working on a film.
Richard Gere
When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.
Richard Gere
Sometimes it's an external approach where one can learn the skills required, let's say, learn to play the trumpet and in that process other things happen. It's magical: through the process of practicing four hours a day you start focusing on emotion and when you pick up the trumpet it's filled with feeling.
Richard Gere
I tend to be a bit of a dreamer.
Richard Gere
