The best movies are simple.
Shia LaBeouf
If people perceive you as a good actor then they'll wish for you to be a good actor and they'll root for you when they watch you, but if you come out and you're going to clubs every night people don't root for you anymore.
Shia LaBeouf
You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.

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.
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 turned down a scholarship to Yale. The problem with college is that there's a tendency to mistake preparation for productivity. You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.
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
A relationship to me is never about the romance.
Shia LaBeouf
I am trying to impress myself. I have yet to do it.
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'm not a strikingly handsome guy, but I'm in movies.
Shia LaBeouf
Now my dad is with me, traveling with me and a big part of this whole thing is I like to mix it up a little bit, you know. Who gets to take their father on a private jet across the country and stay in first class hotels? So we're enjoying it, but I'd stop if it's not possible.
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
