More quotes by 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
As an actor, the minute you start getting real in interviews, you lose mystery.
Shia LaBeouf
I'm constantly jumping off cliffs and developing my wings on the way down. ... It's a gamble, a ... spiritual gamble. You are who you choose to be.
Shia LaBeouf
Every time you make a movie it's an adventure.
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 kicked out of every school I ever went to.
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
My neighborhood was rough, but I live a great life now. I don't fight that much now. I don't look for it anyway, but if someone hits your mother, whether you're a star, an accountant, or an astronaut or anything... I mean it's your mother, so I lost my mind.
Shia LaBeouf
The best movies are simple.
Shia LaBeouf
No, I was an unknown when I walked in that room. He didn't know who I was from a fly on the wall.
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 have a hard time with free time.
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've spent more on my Dodger tickets that I did on my car.
Shia LaBeouf
You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.
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
My family, my parents are hippies.
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
I think envy motivates a lot of people.
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.
