More quotes by 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
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
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
Passion should always trump common sense.
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
Better to be king for a night than a schmuck for a lifetime.
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
I don't like to watch my own movies - I fall asleep in my own movies.
Robert De Niro
I always enjoy coming to Israel. Israelis are warm, they're energetic people. Forthright. Very smart. I always like smart people. They're nice people, you know. Aggressive, and I respect that aggressiveness because you need it in their situation.
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
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
I think it's important to have had at least a few years of obscurity, where people treat you like everybody else.
Robert De Niro
You'll have time to rest when you're dead.
Robert De Niro
You don't need words to express feelings.
Robert De Niro
One of the things about acting is it allows you to live other people's lives without having to pay the price.
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
In the casino, the cardinal rule is to keep them playing and to keep them coming back. The longer they play, the more they lose, and in the end, we get it all.
Robert De Niro
I didn't have a problem with rejection, because when you go into an audition, you're rejected already. There are hundreds of other actors. You're behind the eight ball when you go in there.
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
If you don't co-operate you're gonna suffer from fistophobia.
Robert De Niro
