More quotes by Russell Crowe
I want to make movies that pierce people's hearts and touch them in some way, even if it's just for the night while they're in the cinema in that moment, I want to bring actual tears to their eyes and goosebumps to their skin.
Russell Crowe
Like everyone else, I've had moments when I've felt that I've been losing my grip.
Russell Crowe
When I was a young fellow, I used to learn the dialogue backwards. The point is that in a conversation between two people, you can't have already made the decisions about what you're gonna do. You gotta be very light on your feet. That leads you into areas where conversations can have a much bigger, grander meaning.
Russell Crowe
Imagine what you will be, and it will be so.
Russell Crowe
I read the bible often, not just to prepare for Noah. I believe it is a very important book.
Russell Crowe
You don't want to be starting a film not knowing what you want to do.
Russell Crowe
Nobody wants zealotry in a police force, you know? You do want to know that the guy who's got that badge, is confident enough to judge a certain level of benign corruption. Like a man steals some food to feed his starving children.
Russell Crowe
If I don't get the goose-bump factor when I'm reading it than I can't do it.
Russell Crowe
I can rely on me [being a director], unlike some actors. I never got anything less than what I needed from the lead actor.
Russell Crowe
Even though Noah is in the Koran as well. But we knew going into this project that you can't make stories or render images about the Prophet. But I do believe people are missing out if they don't have the choice to see this film.
Russell Crowe
I do occasionally wonder, if you were to bring to life one of those young men who sacrificed themselves in what was advertised to them as the Great War, and the war to end all war, and show them that we're still engaged in armed conflict in the same area, I'm not sure that they would be pleased about what their sacrifices amounted to.
Russell Crowe
I'd like to play passionate women, but no one will let me.
Russell Crowe
A lot of the things that other people from outside the business would see as crazy or strange are just a natural part of the working process. Preparation is key, and detail and collaboration are the rule, but no matter how many hours you spend preparing, there's always something.
Russell Crowe
Brothers, what we do in life........echoes in eternity.
Russell Crowe
I respond in the moment which is what makes me a good actor.
Russell Crowe
This is possibly the most shameful situation I've ever gotten myself in in my life, and I've done some pretty dumb things in my life. So to actually make a new No. 1 is spectacularly stupid.
Russell Crowe
There's nothing like sitting back and talking to your cows.
Russell Crowe
I have to believe I got some kind of say over our lives.
Russell Crowe
I'd move to Los Angeles if New Zealand and Australia were swallowed up by a tidal wave, if there was a bubonic plague in England and if the continent of Africa disappeared from some Martian attack.
Russell Crowe
I hate having long hair. It's like walking around with a dead koala on your back!
