More quotes by Shia LaBeouf
Having emotional connections to things that don't really exist, like looking at a green ball and really loving that green ball, and being sad whether it's around or not. Stuff like that. I've never done acting at this level before so it was a huge challenge for me. It was a hurdle to overcome just to survive.
Shia LaBeouf
The best movies are simple.

I'm not an Adonis, that's for damn sure. I've never really thought of myself that way, and it doesn't matter to me. My favorite actors aren't Adonises. Dustin Hoffman is a flawed-looking man he's amazing to me. Tom Hanks is flawed-looking people love him. Same with Gene Hackman.
Shia LaBeouf
I enjoy what I'm able to give my family.

I think, my generation, it's hard to have hope when you got a $700-trillion derivatives debt to pay and a bubble about to explode and $500 trillion worth of GDP.

If I had more recreation time I would be able to step back and reflect on how life has changed. But it has been like a constant... boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

I drink protein shakes nonstop - three or four a day - and I run a lot, so you get rid of the bad carbs and keep the rest so you have the energy to make it through.
Shia LaBeouf
You can't buy back your respect you can't buy back your career. You only get one, so I don't want to mess that up.
Shia LaBeouf
There's no room for being a visionary in the studio system. It literally cannot exist. You give Terrence Malick a movie like Transformers, and he's f***ed. There's no way for him to exist in that world... Lars Von Trier's dangerous. He scares me. And I'm only going to work now when I'm terrified.
Shia LaBeouf
As an actor, the minute you start getting real in interviews, you lose mystery.
Shia LaBeouf
I am trying to impress myself. I have yet to do it.
Shia LaBeouf
Sometimes I feel I'm living a meaningless life, and I get frightened.
Shia LaBeouf
I didn't jump onto anyone else's coattail and ride their wave.
Shia LaBeouf
People were going to geometry class and I was swimming through vats of chili on 'Even Stevens.' It was like a dream!
Shia LaBeouf
I'm an individual, and I have opinions.
Shia LaBeouf
Copying isn’t particularly creative work. Being inspired by someone else’s idea to produce something new and different IS creative work.
Shia LaBeouf
When you're working with the best of the best, I'm not gonna put that on hold so I can work with people who studied the best of the best.
Shia LaBeouf
Talent is to actors what luck is to card players. Its not really anything its just a fictitious word that people have created and labeled things. Talent is like, you know, I never really believed in talent, I believed in drive and determination and preparation, but talent is sort of like luck.
Shia LaBeouf
I didn't know my dad for a long time. My dad was on drugs and my dad was at the VA Hospital, my dad was off in his own world selling drugs or using them or there would be crack heads in the house or whatever it would be.
Shia LaBeouf
My generation will actually be the first generation that is tamer than the one that came before it, and it will probably be poorer less fun and less money. It's ridiculous. In my parents' generation, rebellion was pop culture. It's not anymore.
