More quotes by Richard Gere
(Sometimes when) someone's directing for the first time, they're afraid to include everyone - they have to prove they're the director.
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 have a lot of beautiful friends.
Richard Gere
I've had an interesting life.
Richard Gere
Julia [Roberts]. She's got two kids and animals, and I think she's a night nibbler. There'd be crumbs everywhere.
Richard Gere
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.
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 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
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
America has never paid any attention to other people, so it's absurd for Bush to say that it's all in the best interests of the Iraqi people.
Richard Gere
People don't understand what happiness is, so they have an idea of what will make them happy, but it never does.
Richard Gere
I think life is self-examination. Certainly the voyage that one takes.
Richard Gere
It's human nature - we want to believe our children, our families, our President!
Richard Gere
Food is the only beautiful thing that truly nourishes.
Richard Gere
I tend to be a bit of a dreamer.
Richard Gere
Well I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level.
Richard Gere
It's rare that a good writer will sit down and write a good script. Writers are greedy too, and they don't want to work without getting paid. But quality will find its way out.
Richard Gere
There are some problems on this planet that seem to be intractable.
Richard Gere
Meditation is such a more substantial reality than what we normally take to be reality.
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.
