More quotes by 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.
Shia LaBeouf
I would like to be George Clooney - diplomatic. I just don't have the wherewithal yet or the inner serenity.
Shia LaBeouf
This is hands down the biggest, most exciting thing I've ever been involved with in my life. I can only compare it to my Bar Mitzvah.
Shia LaBeouf
But this is a little different. This is the adult acting. This is a different crowd. It's more work and more good work. That's it. People will have their opinion regardless.
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
My life is okay, my life is pretty good.
Shia LaBeouf

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
I'm trying to find a way to eat up time without being destructive, 'cause that's my go-to, it seems.
Shia LaBeouf
I have a hard time with free time.
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 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
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 enjoy what I'm able to give my family.
Shia LaBeouf
I got kicked out of every school I ever went to.
Shia LaBeouf
By studying psychology i want to be a better actor. There's something about studying body language and non-spoken emotion - I know the innate response. But to really study it like a science would be fun.
Shia LaBeouf
Comics, for me, is being able to sing alone in the shower. I find it freeing. You just pick up a pen and get to it.
