More quotes by Samuel L. Jackson
I'm actually very ordinary, except people get to pay their money to come watch me work. The same way that we go to McDonald's.. we don't care about the guy behind the counter, but if he was doing something special, we'd pay our money to go watch him cook that hamburger.
Samuel L. Jackson
I just always knew that I lived in two worlds. There was the world of my house and community, but to make my way in that white world I had to modify the way I spoke and acted. I had to sometimes not make direct eye contact.
Samuel L. Jackson
Sometimes one of my ways of choosing movies that I want to do is if it's the kind of movie I would have gone to see when I was a kid, and this is a movie I actually did go see, as a kid. And I think it will be exciting for audiences to see now.
Samuel L. Jackson
But Medicine is a demonstrative Science, and all its processes should be proved by established principles, and be based on positive inductions. That the proceedings of Medicine are not of this character, in to be attributed to the manner of its cultivation, and not to the nature of the Science itself.
Samuel L. Jackson
We [me and Eugene Levy] both try to play the reality of a moment and don't try to impose humor on something where it doesn't belong. Contrary to what other people seem to think sometimes.

Girl, don't make me put my foot in your ass.
Samuel L. Jackson
I never did one thing right in my life, you know that? Not one. That takes skill.
Samuel L. Jackson
When I saw the script [of The Man], I saw the character and knew I could do the character. It's a relationship movie, which is also what I love to do. That's what attracts me to projects.
Samuel L. Jackson
I don't understand how people live without creating.
Samuel L. Jackson
Lifelong readers continue to read, finding in books the means to enjoy life or endure it
Samuel L. Jackson
You ain't got but one life. You ought to live it the way you want.
Samuel L. Jackson
My ass may be dumb, but I ain't no dumbass.
Samuel L. Jackson
I trust most people. Not producers.
Samuel L. Jackson
Sam [L.Jackson] never asks for another take because he knows what he's doing. He gives you what he thinks is the best take, and he does it on the first take.
Samuel L. Jackson
I actually think I have an audience member's sensibility about going to the movies.
Samuel L. Jackson
If there's an interesting role that comes up as a great support role in a decent picture, then I'll do that.
Samuel L. Jackson
When I'm not working, I like to play golf.
Samuel L. Jackson
Those are the rules. To improvise in a movie with other people, when they're following a script, everybody has to know what's going on. I think a line or two we might change. Certainly, I do. But I wouldn't call it improvising. I'd call it fudging the lines.
Samuel L. Jackson
The certainty that life cannot be long, and the probability that it will be much shorter than nature allows, ought to awaken every man to the active prosecution of whatever he is desirous to perform.
Samuel L. Jackson
When people want me to sign an autograph in a restaurant, and I'm eating. I don't even have to say no, I just kind of stop and look at them ... Oh, okay. I'll ... I'll come back.
Samuel L. Jackson
