Richard Gere
We've had too many World AIDS Days.
Richard Gere
I would rather be loved than have money and all that other stuff.
Richard Gere

Richard Gere
Always walk towards open doors. And if they slam shut in your face, kick that sucker in and keep going.
Richard Gere
I think movies probably are a mirror in some way so we can see ourselves in them.
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
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
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 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
Tibetan Buddhism had an enormous impact on me.
Richard Gere
I don't know any of us who are in relationships that are totally honest - it doesn't exist.
Richard Gere
Food is the only beautiful thing that truly nourishes.
Richard Gere
I think life is self-examination. Certainly the voyage that one takes.
