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 drive for happiness is vital it's what keeps us in motion.
Richard Gere
When I started acting, it was really the way for me to be able to communicate.
Richard Gere
Relationships are like sharks. They've got to keep going into deeper, colder water, sometimes scarier, darker territories ... to stay alive.
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
One of the joys of being an actor is that you're always learning new things. And I've been doing this since I was 19, so there's been a lot of new things I have learned for each part. I always assume that I can do it.
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
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
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
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
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 do think that good actors can do any part. It doesn't mean that they are the best ones to do it.
Richard Gere
I'm younger than I once was. Internally. Less self-conscious. Less insecure.
Richard Gere
I'm a 50 year-old guy and I'm not in shape like I was when I was 30.
Richard Gere
I have no sense of time, and I'm a dreamer.
Richard Gere
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
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'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
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
