More quotes by Sean Penn
It has nothing to do with the emotional demands of a role I've done comedies that are as draining to me as any drama.
Sean Penn
I've never really been one to get what they call stage fright so much.
Sean Penn
If you don’t vote, you don’t matter.
Sean Penn
My favorite thing to do is not act - it's that simple.
Sean Penn
Rebel is just as bad a word as maturity.
Sean Penn
I have a regret that the entire discussion [with El Chapo]... ignores its purpose, which was to try to contribute to this discussion about the policy in the War on Drugs.
Sean Penn
When you get divorced, all the truths that come out, you sit there and go, 'What the f**k was I doing? What was I doing believing that this person was invested in this way?' Which is a fantastically strong humiliation in the best sense. It can make somebody very bitter and very hard and closed off, but I find it does the opposite to me.
Sean Penn
Oh, I'm a big-mouth. I said a lot of things.
Sean Penn
At this stage, what would be rewarding would be for audiences to want to watch.
Sean Penn
If there's anything disgusting about the movie business, it's the whoredom of my peers.
Sean Penn
On a movie, it's always better to stay invisible as much as you can to keep things calm. I like to whisper to my cameraman, I like to whisper to my actors, and whoever else I've gotten to whisper to.
Sean Penn
It's only in innocence you find any kind of magic, any kind of courage.
Sean Penn
I like to believe that love is a reciprocal thing, that it can't really be felt, truly, by one.
Sean Penn
The advice you give to young directors for sure is to go out and become some version of a successful movie actor. Do that first and say yes to people like Terrence Malick and Clint Eastwood and Woody Allen when they come and offer you movies. It's a great front row seat to filmmaking.
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
That difference do you think you can make, one man in all this madness?
Sean Penn
Fulfilling what you start is why you start something.
Sean Penn
I'd do anything to get a performance, short of malice.
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
On any movie I'm involved with, I say what I think.
