If you're making a movie about the effects of time, you kind of have to engage time as the main character.

Cars can have a hypnotic effect. You can get in a car and get out and not really remember the trip.
Ryan Gosling

I grew up in a family of strong women and I owe any capacity I have to understand women to my mother and big sister. They taught me to respect women in a way where I've always felt a strong emotional connection to women, which has also helped me in the way I approach my work as an actor.

I try to play characters who are different from myself, so I feel like this character is someone who is really different. I actually think that if I did what he did in this movie, I would get a restraining order put against me.

I've been doing this since I was 12... I don't want to act much longer I can't do one thing my whole life.
Ryan Gosling

I think about death a lot, like I think we all do. I don't think of suicide as an option, but as fun. It's an interesting idea that you can control how you go. It's this thing that's looming, and you can control it.

I feel like everything has happened naturally.
Ryan Gosling
Image
It's sad, because he just doesn't have any ambition outside of loving his wife and his daughter — which should be enough but doesn't seem to be enough in this case.
Ryan Gosling

I’ve been lucky, so lucky, working with [...] Rachel (McAdams) on The Notebook. A big draw for me, when I do a film, is who am I going to be opposite, because there’s only so much I can do on my own.

I feel there is something nice about not talking. Like you can say more by actually saying less.
Ryan Gosling
Image
It's misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman's sexual presentation of self. I consider this an issue that is bigger than (one) film.
Ryan Gosling
Image
I know there are only so many characters I'll be able to play.
Ryan Gosling
Image
I love being Canadian. I think growing up in Canada gives you a world perspective that I certainly enjoy.
Ryan Gosling
Image
I like working with actresses, and I like women a lot, not for obvious reasons, but just in that that theres so much about what they bring to the scene that keeps it so interesting. Their instincts are so different, and they never explain them to you.
Ryan Gosling
Image
If I eat a huge meal and I can get the girl to rub my belly, I think that's about as romantic as I can think of.
Ryan Gosling
Image
I don't like to be entertaining. I don't like the feeling of being entertaining. If there was a musical or a comedy that was not just for entertainment but was rooted in something I could relate to on a real level, then I think I would do it.

Im glad I have an outlet. I dont think I would put my aggression elsewhere, but working on the projects I have worked on, you tend to benefit personally from trying to wrap your head around the way other people look at the world.

I never was that boy who loved gangster films, but when I was growing up, I was obsessed with the detective Dick Tracy. It was one of my favourite movies as a kid, and he really inspired me. I would have loved to be part of that golden age of Hollywood in the 1940s. It made me want to become an actor.

Freedom is such a gift.

Hollywood usually doesn't have strong woman in films like that, and it's stupid, so for the most part they're usually being directed and written by men.
Ryan Gosling

I don't even think of myself as particularly good looking, and not at all a typical kind of Hollywood leading man sort of actor.
