More quotes by Richard Gere
When someone has a strong intuitive connection, Buddhism suggests that it's because of karma, some past connection.
Richard Gere
Sometimes it's an external approach where one can learn the skills required, let's say, learn to play the trumpet and in that process other things happen. It's magical: through the process of practicing four hours a day you start focusing on emotion and when you pick up the trumpet it's filled with feeling.
Richard Gere
I'm not that tough I'm not that smart. I need life telling me who I am, showing me my mind constantly. I wouldn't see it in a cave.
Richard Gere
I'm rarely in a situation where, if you have a good idea, it's not embraced. That's stupid. And I don't work with stupid people.
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
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
People have a different idea of how movies are made than they really are.
Richard Gere
It was important for me to have a partner who was ballsy.
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
I have no sense of time, and I'm a dreamer.
Richard Gere
When His Holiness won the Nobel Peace Prize, there was a quantum leap. He is not seen as solely a Tibetan anymore he belongs to the world.
Richard Gere
Things come out of nowhere, and you start evaluating the director, the cast, and all those other things going into it.
Richard Gere
I have a lot of beautiful friends.
Richard Gere
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
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
I don't regret anything. Everything happens for a reason-it's part of the healing process. Life is a healing process.
Richard Gere
His Holiness [the Dalai Lama] has told me, urgently and repeatedly, that he thinks my photographs are crap. His exact words were, 'These photos are of poor quality. Why is there no sharp focus? There is no clarity!' I said, 'But your Holiness, it's Goyaesque.' And he said, 'No! It's out of focus!'
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 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.
Richard Gere
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.
Richard Gere
