I think looking at your own life, on- and offscreen, you can motivate anything, or you can delude yourself into anything.
Susan Sarandon
Really, for me, it's important to know who's pitching and who's catching - just what that scene is supposed to accomplish in terms of storytelling. That being said, on the day, basically what you're trying to get yourself into an open place. And if the character is in a state of anxiety or vulnerability, you try to find some touchstone.
Susan Sarandon
I don't like to plan. Very often, for me, acting is like loving it's using the muscle that you use in loving, in that your heart feels open. Physically, you feel open. And so therefore your job is to enter, open, and listen. And see what happens.

What is fabulous about gay marriage is that it redefines the gender designated jobs, then you throw in transgender and you don't just have the five primary colors of the crayons. We have to really look at what it means to be a man or a woman in a much more generous and creative way.

My aunt had given me these rosary beads that were glow-in-the-dark. So all of a sudden I look down and they're glowing, and I'm looking toward the door and thinking, Oh, my God, I don't want anything to come though here. I'm not worthy, I'm not ready. I didn't want to be one of those kids who sees Our Lady of Fatima.

When I tell people I'm a comedian they say, 'Oh, are you funny?' I say, 'No, it's not that kind of comedy.'
Susan Sarandon
My intent is to speak on behalf of those whose voices are less readily heard - children and women at risk
Susan Sarandon
I hesitate to direct even though I feel I contribute a lot on a set.
Susan Sarandon
How will the bombing of Baghdad, a city of five million, accomplish a regime change?
Susan Sarandon
It's still not easy to find roles that offer more complex images of women.
Susan Sarandon
The only thing I can talk about is just forgiving yourself, because I do not have everything together. And so I tell people: No, you should see my house, it's a mess.
Susan Sarandon
Somebody can be the captain of the ship, which allows you to make big mistakes.
Susan Sarandon
By the time I went to the Catholic University of America, which was the time the priests were all leaving with the nuns, the more I studied about the Bible and how it came about, the more I lost my faith.
Susan Sarandon
Making love is like hitting a baseball. You just gotta relax and concentrate.
Susan Sarandon
I don't think there's a petty system of heaven and hell. The love of God is much more forgiving. I'm not a believer in a wrathful God at all.
Susan Sarandon
If sexuality means saying yes to life, then you should be able to remain sexual until the day you die.
Susan Sarandon
To know that once you decide to look at life outside of the narrow limits of just your world and start to understand that you can make a difference in very simple ways - in volunteering and all the way up to bigger world problems.
Susan Sarandon
Acting is kind of a forced compassion, where you learn that given certain circumstances, you can feel and do things that you never thought yourself capable of. And so it stops you from being super-judgmental.
Susan Sarandon
It's a miracle when something actually turns out well because there are so many ways for it to go wrong.
