There are some problems on this planet that seem to be intractable.
Richard Gere
Image
I have made plenty of mistakes. The key to life is to learn from them. I have been a little too introspective, but I think that stemmed from insecurity or shyness. I took a long time to grow up.

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.

I can’t remember that I was ever looking for anything. I was waiting for something to touch me. It’s like, I’ll be open to it, and see if it moves me. There has to be a falling in love moment.
Richard Gere
Image
It's nice to have money, but the first thing I did with money was buy my father a snow-blower, because my job was to shovel snow, and I wasn't there to do it any more, so I was able to buy him a blower.

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
Tibetan Buddhism had an enormous impact on me.
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 honestly do not think about celebrity or image or sexual expectations on me. It only comes up when people have a list of questions. But what I am told is that there is a quality that I have onscreen, where it's a little bit of everything.
Richard Gere
Image
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
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.

When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.
