More quotes by 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.

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
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
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
There is only one way to gain access to the truth and that is to not expect anything.
Robert De Niro
Better to be king for a night than a schmuck for a lifetime.
Robert De Niro
As an actor, you use the things from yourself that you can apply to the character.
Robert De Niro
I don't remember what made me want to be an actor. In fact, I'm always curious.
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've never been one of those actors who has touted myself as a fascinating human being. I had to decide early on whether I was to be an actor or a personality.
Robert De Niro
I have to be able to trust you with my life. Do you understand?
Robert De Niro
One regret I have: I didn't get as much of the family history as I could have for the kids.
