Copying isn’t particularly creative work. Being inspired by someone else’s idea to produce something new and different IS creative work.

More quotes by 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
I have a hard time with free time.
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
People were going to geometry class and I was swimming through vats of chili on 'Even Stevens.' It was like a dream!
Shia LaBeouf
If you're trying to learn how to act from a class, you're analyzing the teachers' movements and their intricacies, and it becomes like a pantomime of you wanting to be them, and that's wrong. Literature is an easier way to study acting, because then you can take any kind of spin. It's your own imagination, and your own version of it.
Shia LaBeouf
I just wish the crowd I was associated with was more passionate about what they were doing and less consumed with the commerce of the art form.
Shia LaBeouf
A relationship to me is never about the romance.
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
To be able to sit in Donald Trump's apartment and talk about the future of corporate real estate was amazing.
Shia LaBeouf
I would like to be George Clooney - diplomatic. I just don't have the wherewithal yet or the inner serenity.
Shia LaBeouf
I turned down twelve films last year... Huge money films, but I had no respect for the writer or the work.
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
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
I'm a video game fan, and I always thought it would be cool to be able to control a character.
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
My mom is at my house every day, and she nags me about everything, especially hygiene.
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
A lot of people like to think that golf is a lazy man's sport. Or it's a rich man's sport, or it's a sport that they can't be involved in.
Shia LaBeouf
I've had to deal with all different types of situations - positive and negative and extremes of both.
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
