More quotes by Sean Penn
I'd do anything to get a performance, short of malice.
Sean Penn
I'm not going to recommend recklessness but somewhere just short of it - testing yourself and proactively pursuing a rite of passage has become necessary because in western developed countries we've become very comfort-addicted.
Sean Penn
Haiti, like any place, has its security problems it has a great challenge in terms of establishing a kind of globally acceptable rule of law.
Sean Penn
There's the old notion that where there's choice, there's chaos, and where there's no choice, there's clarity. If you've got no choice, you've gotta be there, and you've gotta have your heart in it. It leads to a much less self-conscious life.
Sean Penn
You need governance, but you also need a middle class, you need agriculture, they need to be able to export. I think that's probably the biggest issue, the job creation that could come with the kinds of things that Haiti has all the potential in the world to export.
Sean Penn
I think you start to prepare the minute you read something.
Sean Penn
I can always see light in any situation. It's just the way I'm made.
Sean Penn
There is no shame in my saying that we all want to be loved.
Sean Penn
There is a kind of sense of truth and reconciliation that is non-formalized, but it's understood and accepted. Haitians are Haitians and there is an inherent loyalty that forgives an awful lot.
Sean Penn
I think that I've still not been successful at playing the role of the retired actor, and I'd like to work on that.
Sean Penn
I've never really been one to get what they call stage fright so much.
Sean Penn
When everything gets answered, it's fake.
Sean Penn
If you can't count on your heart having some kind of unified response, you can't count on anything. You use your heart as a barometer for your movie's completeness.
Sean Penn
The thing that's very close in the process is writing and acting, not directing. Directing's very different.
Sean Penn
I think that it is a good time for those who voted for the ban against gay marriage to sit and reflect and anticipate their great shame and the shame in their grandchildren's eyes if they continue that way of support. We've got to have equal rights for everyone.
Sean Penn
Yeah, I had a tremendous time shooting in Nebraska. I like that state a lot, all over it.
Sean Penn
When you act in a film, you're inevitably surrounded by people you didn't choose, right down to the set painter. I like being able to pick the family I'm waking up to in the morning that's going to make this group effort to tell a story that applies to what's interesting to me at that stage in my life.
Sean Penn
One of the reasons people sell out so quickly is because even the talented think they're frauds. It's a culture that doesn't encourage people to believe in the work they do. You're told to second-guess yourself all the time. That's where I think a little hostility and arrogance can save you. And I've never been lacking for either.
Sean Penn
I can make a better living as an actor than I can as a director. Though I certainly would prefer to be directing movies.
Sean Penn
On any movie I'm involved with, I say what I think.
Sean Penn
