More quotes by 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.'

I don't remember what made me want to be an actor. In fact, I'm always curious.
Robert De Niro

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
If it's the right chair, it doesn't take too long to get comfortable in it.
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
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 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
As a kid I didn't root for the bad guys.
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
You'll have time to rest when you're dead.
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.
