More quotes by 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
You'll have time to rest when you're dead.
Robert De Niro
If you don't co-operate you're gonna suffer from fistophobia.
Robert De Niro
Write down everything you want to do with your life and then spend the next 25 years doing them.
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
As a kid I didn't root for the bad guys.
Robert De Niro
I will not hesitate. Not for a second.
Robert De Niro
Passion should always trump common sense.
Robert De Niro
As an actor who's starting out, you can't say, Hey, I'm too good for this. You gotta do it, because people see you, your name gets around, and it has a cumulative effect.
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
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 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
As an actor, you use the things from yourself that you can apply to the character.
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
Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets.
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
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
The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you.
Robert De Niro
If you don't go, you'll never know.
Robert De Niro
I don't like to watch my own movies - I fall asleep in my own movies.
Robert De Niro
