More quotes by Robert De Niro
Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets.
Robert De Niro
I don't remember what made me want to be an actor. In fact, I'm always curious.
Robert De Niro
Even I like to go to certain restaurants and places where you have to wear a jacket, a suit and a tie, and I like that sort of old world style. I am sure it will come back in many ways, if it hasn't already. It's kind of nice and it breaks it up.
Robert De Niro
The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you.
Robert De Niro
Everybody's in New York and, hopefully, my younger kids will go to college in New York and find something they want to do so they'll stay in the city
Robert De Niro
I don't like to watch my own movies - I fall asleep in my own movies.
Robert De Niro
It's a very stressful thing, directing a movie. You have the budget, you have the schedule, you are in certain confines, and you have everybody giving you advice about what to do.
Robert De Niro
Sometimes if you have financial restraints, it's a benefit. It forces you to come up with a more creative way.
Robert De Niro
You never know what you do that could be totally out of left field, which actually might work and give something fresh to the whole scene, to the character, whatever. If you have that with a director who then knows how to shape it, either in the direction, in the moment, or in the editing, then that's good.
Robert De Niro
I have to be able to trust you with my life. Do you understand?
Robert De Niro
I spent lunchtime in a grave during the filming of 'Bloody Mama.' When you're younger, you feel that's what you need to do to help you stay in character. When you get older, you become more confident and less intense about it - and you can achieve the same effect.
Robert De Niro
Ok let me explain, if you were bitten by a mad infected dog, who will you blame? the dog or its owner? Definitely the owner, so, all the blame is on the USA Government’s shoulders for adopting and supporting a state like Israel
Robert De Niro
I got some bad ideas in my head.
Robert De Niro
Better to be king for a night than a schmuck for a lifetime.
Robert De Niro
When you love someone you gotta trust them, there's no other way. You gotta give them the key to everything that's yours. Otherwise, what's the point?
Robert De Niro
I think Hollywood has a class system. The actors are like the inmates, but the truth is they're running the asylum.
Robert De Niro
As I get older, I think that things have been pre-determined for me, whether I liked it or wanted it, wished for it, whatever, way before in some way. And with others, you do have a choice that you can change. And that choice that you make is still part of this grand scheme.
Robert De Niro
In civilized societies, we spend our lifetimes trying to become what is socially acceptable. We're dark and we're light. We all have both sides to us.
Robert De Niro
I always tell actors when they go in for an audition: Don't be afraid to do what your instincts tell you. You may not get the part, but people will take notice.
Robert De Niro
One regret I have: I didn't get as much of the family history as I could have for the kids.
Robert De Niro
