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
Image
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
Image
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.

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
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.

On a movie set that works, you have your father figure, the director, you have your siblings, your other actors.

Julia [Roberts]. She's got two kids and animals, and I think she's a night nibbler. There'd be crumbs everywhere.

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.

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

People have a different idea of how movies are made than they really are.

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.

It's human nature - we want to believe our children, our families, our President!

Food is the only beautiful thing that truly nourishes.

The drive for happiness is vital it's what keeps us in motion.

Any political situation has many sides... We intellectualize the whole situation any way... We make our intellectual decisions based on our cultural background and how we live.
Richard Gere
Image
Always walk towards open doors. And if they slam shut in your face, kick that sucker in and keep going.

Image
In the process of developing a character, you do, in fact, start to take him on as a personality. It's part of my job.
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.

As custodians of the planet it is our responsibility to deal with all species with kindness, love, and compassion. That these animals suffer through human cruelty is beyond understanding. Please help to stop this madness.

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.
