More quotes by Shia LaBeouf
I am trying to impress myself. I have yet to do it.
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
And I'm not a personality otherwise I'd be coming out with an album, performing on MTV. All that stuff is possible and I can do that tomorrow. I just have no need.
Shia LaBeouf
You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.
Shia LaBeouf
I was planning on going to Yale to theater school.
Shia LaBeouf
I think envy motivates a lot of people.
Shia LaBeouf
The big thing for actors is the level of commitment. So, if you know something's already happened, there's not a whole lot of whys and hows that go down. You just innately commit 'cause it happened. It does help with commitment.

I have a hard time with free time.
Shia LaBeouf
They're very, uh, you know, I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly, Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different. And they're cool and bare minimum so it's not always a money issue for me.
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
My family, my parents are hippies.
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
My first car, I got it in an auction at my temple. It was an '86 Volvo that I got for 500 bucks, and then wound up throwing $10,000 into the stereo system and put TVs in the foot rests. It was the most ridiculous Volvo you'd ever seen, but I had never had money before and I was out of my mind.
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 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 got to grow up in a situation where drugs were demonic. To watch your dad go through heroin withdrawal is something that would keep you from doing any of that yourself.
Shia LaBeouf
My humor came from seeing my parents have sex, smoke weed, my mom being naked - just weird hippie stuff, twisted R-rated humor.
Shia LaBeouf
I've spent more on my Dodger tickets that I did on my car.
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.
