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
Image
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
Image
I don't regret anything. Everything happens for a reason-it's part of the healing process. Life is a healing process.
Richard Gere
Image
People don't understand what happiness is, so they have an idea of what will make them happy, but it never does.
Richard Gere
Image
I'm younger than I once was. Internally. Less self-conscious. Less insecure.
Richard Gere
Image
It was important for me to have a partner who was ballsy.
Richard Gere
Image
I think life is self-examination. Certainly the voyage that one takes.
Richard Gere
Image
A lot of making a movie is the comfort level of the people. It's just feeling open. We need to get along. We have to know something about each other.
Richard Gere
Image
Sometimes I'm kind of spacey. I'm like Ferdinand the bull, sniffing the daisy, not aware of time, of what's going on in the real world.
Richard Gere
Image
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
Image
I would rather be loved than have money and all that other stuff.
Richard Gere
Image
I've always said it's flattering to be desired, just as it's flattering that people accept the reality of the character you play. But it was always ridiculous to assume that because I could play a gigolo on screen I'd play anything like that role off screen.

Image
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.

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.

Image
When I am in Tibet, I am very happy. The Tibetans radiate. They literally send out light. The Dalai Lama's holiness generates love and compassion to every human being. He has committed himself to that. I haven't made that leap yet. I haven't given up self-aspiration. I still love making movies.

We've had too many World AIDS Days.
Richard Gere
Image
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
Image
Mindfulness is a quality that's always there. It's an illusion that there's a meditation and post-meditation period, which I always find amusing, because you're either mindful or you're not.
Richard Gere
Image
I think movies probably are a mirror in some way so we can see ourselves in them.
Richard Gere
Image
I don't know any of us who are in relationships that are totally honest - it doesn't exist.
Richard Gere
