More quotes by Shia LaBeouf
You can't have bank holding companies acting as hedge funds. You can't have them taking a million-dollar pension plan for Joe Schmo the bus driver and treat it with the same risk appetite that you treat George Soros' pocket money. It's fundamentally ridiculous.
Shia LaBeouf
The big thing for actors is the level of commitment.
Shia LaBeouf
I think every young actor in Los Angeles went up for that role. It was between Frankie Muniz and me, and he pulled out, so I got the role.
Shia LaBeouf
I love doing stuff that I haven't done before. That's the goal: To keep reinventing myself.
Shia LaBeouf
I am a season ticket holder to Dodger games. I go to every Dodger game I can go to. Every single one.
Shia LaBeouf
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
There is no grand strategy. My sensibilities push me in a certain direction. Other actors have different sensibilities. That's all. I think it really is that simple. There's no grand strategy. There are so many variables that I have no control over. I sign on to movies I want to watch, as a fan.
Shia LaBeouf
A relationship to me is never about the romance.
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
I've learned to be more reserved, watch what I'm saying I got in a little bit of trouble. People tell me 'Never lose that, never lose that,' but then I get in trouble so I have to lose it. I'm trying to keep a little bit I'm never going to lose who I am, I just gotta tone it down a little bit.
Shia LaBeouf
I've been in fights, but that doesn't make me cool or like a tough guy or more interesting actor, I'm not proud of it.
Shia LaBeouf
I'm not a strikingly handsome guy, but I'm in movies.

Any time you're a type, your career's over.
Shia LaBeouf
I hated golf when we first started, but a big part of the training process was falling in love with this sport, so I went on tour with the UCLA Team.
Shia LaBeouf
If you're trying to learn how to act from a class, you're analyzing the teachers' movements and their intricacies, and it becomes like a pantomime of you wanting to be them, and that's wrong. Literature is an easier way to study acting, because then you can take any kind of spin. It's your own imagination, and your own version of it.
Shia LaBeouf
I would like to be George Clooney - diplomatic. I just don't have the wherewithal yet or the inner serenity.
Shia LaBeouf
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
Clubs are so lame. Nobody even dances at these clubs. They stand around and get drunk and they schmooze. There is no enjoyment factor.
Shia LaBeouf
I used to dirt bike a lot. I can't do that anymore. Can't eat a whole lot of chocolate anymore, either. I can't be in 'Indiana Jones' and be a fatso!
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.
