The saddest thing in life is wasted talent
Robert De Niro
I love to find new people. It's not for the sake of their being new it's because if you find someone who perfectly fits a part, that's such a great thing.
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
Money makes your life easier. If you're lucky to have it, you're lucky.
Robert De Niro
If De Niro wants to spend the twilight of his career as the McDonald's of master thespians, we can't stop him.
Robert De Niro
If you don't co-operate you're gonna suffer from fistophobia.
Robert De Niro
I don’t get into these long-winded heavy discussions about character - do we do this or that or what. At the end of the day, what you gotta do is just go out there and do it.
Robert De Niro
Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets.
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
My mother worked for a woman, Maria Ley-Piscator, who with her husband founded the Dramatic Workshop, which was connected to the New School. My mother did proofreading and typing and stuff or her, and as part of her payment, I was able to take acting classes there on Saturdays when I was 10.
Robert De Niro
I will not hesitate. Not for a second.
Robert De Niro
I got some bad ideas in my head.
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
I don't like to watch my own movies - I fall asleep in my own movies.
Robert De Niro
The one thing I always talk about in terms of restaurants is consistency. I think that's what we love about the vodka, is that it's consistent. It's consistent in its pureness and that's how I tie it to restaurants. When I think of a good restaurant, it's where the food has been consistent there's always a consistency.
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'll have time to rest when you're dead.
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
Time goes on. So whatever you're going to do, do it. Do it now. Don't wait.
Robert De Niro
The bottom line is if the movie does well, everybody is happy and they forget about what they went through. And if it doesn't, it's 'I told you.' There's one director who I won't mention, who said, 'it's all blood under the bridge.'
Robert De Niro
