More quotes by 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
I have no sense of time, and I'm a dreamer.
Richard Gere
I just had a device made that fits in your mouth and juts your jaw out like you have an underbite. It locks in that position to keep your throat passage open when you sleep. This is the sacrifice I make for my wife. It was either this device or me sleeping in the other room.
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
I tend to be a bit of a dreamer.
Richard Gere
I think movies probably are a mirror in some way so we can see ourselves in them.

I think most of our religious institutions are pretty corrupt, so they're not reliable. I think the Christian religion that I was brought up with has very little to do with Christ, really, and more an institutions that have built up around the church.
Richard Gere
I don't regret anything. Everything happens for a reason-it's part of the healing process. Life is a healing process.
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
I would say that the West is very young, it's very corrupt. We're not very wise. And I think we're hopeful that there is a place that is ancient and wise and open and filled with light.
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
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
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.
Richard Gere
On a movie set that works, you have your father figure, the director, you have your siblings, your other actors.
Richard Gere
I can see the character in a photograph, in the way a guy stands or holds his hands, the way he buckles his belt. I fantasize a lot looking at photographs. I'm sure that doesn't work for many people.
Richard Gere
I think life is self-examination. Certainly the voyage that one takes.
Richard Gere
I've got a lot of opportunities, a lot of love in my life, a lot of things going for me. Still, it's not complete. I know this is not the whole thing. There's much more.
Richard Gere
Always walk towards open doors. And if they slam shut in your face, kick that sucker in and keep going.
Richard Gere
