More quotes by Shia LaBeouf
My mom is the backbone not just of my family but of many families.
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
I've had to deal with all different types of situations - positive and negative and extremes of both.
Shia LaBeouf
Most actors on most days don't think they're worthy.
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
I was planning on going to Yale to theater school.
Shia LaBeouf
The best movies are simple.
Shia LaBeouf
My mom is at my house every day, and she nags me about everything, especially hygiene.
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.
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
I'd love to go to school and have a normal life, but I don't see any professor at Yale being able to teach me more than Steven Spielberg.
Shia LaBeouf
Have you ever noticed how most critics disagree with the public? That should tell you a lot about critics.
Shia LaBeouf
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!
Shia LaBeouf
There's a way to do an acid trip like Harold & Kumar, and there's a way to be on acid. What I know of acting, Sean Penn actually strapped up to that electric chair in Dead Man Walking. These are the guys that I look up to.
Shia LaBeouf
I enjoy what I'm able to give my family.
Shia LaBeouf
I'm an individual, and I have opinions.
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 life is okay, my life is pretty good.
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
There's a form of selling out. It's necessary. You have to become edible for people in Texas. You have to become edible for the Christian right, for mass audiences.
