Robert Downey, Jr.
Sometimes you're not supposed to enjoy it [acting]. You're supposed to cooperate with misery and proceed anyway. But what I do enjoy is a sense of well-being and just participating in life and life's turns.
Robert Downey, Jr.
People never change because they are under threat or under duress. Never. They change because they see something that makes their life seem valuable enough to start moving toward a life worth living.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I thought that the grounded-ish nature of the first Iron Man and where I think the success of it was based was I think people got excited that this was a technologically possible occurrence and didn't Obama order an Iron Man?
Robert Downey, Jr.
There's somewhere you're supposed to go, and if you get quiet enough, you'll make it.
