Bukowski said, I know I'm good, so I like that people think I'm bad, because it gives me a dimension, effortlessly.

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.

When you act in a film, you're inevitably surrounded by people you didn't choose, right down to the set painter.

I can always see light in any situation. It's just the way I'm made.
Sean Penn
Image
It's a foreground of my feeling. That place moves me. And I don't mean my country it's part of our shared natural world that happens to be particular to a sense of wherever my storytelling inclinations come from and my own history of kind of being a road rat and travelling.
Sean Penn
Image
The thing that's very close in the process is writing and acting, not directing. Directing's very different.
Sean Penn
Image
My greatest interest in it was certainly not to avoid those things that were going to be controversial about the family but the interest I had in the story was predominantly what he was pursuing and not as much what he was fleeing.
Sean Penn
Image
On any movie I'm involved with, I say what I think.
Sean Penn
Image
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.

Fulfilling what you start is why you start something.
Sean Penn
Image
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.

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.

I'd do anything to get a performance, short of malice.
