More quotes by Susan Sarandon
I believe in using words, not fists.
Susan Sarandon
It's not enough just to be in a panic. We don't have the luxury to be depressed about Trump. We have to look at issues like health care and the price of pharmaceuticals, the $15 minimum wage and things that actually make a huge difference in a lot of people's lives. That's feminist.
Susan Sarandon
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
I hope they're present in their lives and feel some kind of empathy. I think a lot of the mistakes that have been made in the world have been through a lack of empathy. If you can identify with someone else and empathise with someone else, then activism is a short step away, she explained in an interview with Parade.

If you're upset with how you look at 25, life's going to be tough.
Susan Sarandon
We have more families at risk with the death penalty. It targets the voiceless, the poor, people of color. And so it's important just to understand what your government is doing and how much they are spending.
Susan Sarandon
One night I looked down and my rosary beads were glowing. And I realized that I did not want to see the blessed Virgin - I was terrified.
Susan Sarandon
I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the Church of Baseball.
Susan Sarandon
On parochial school I was told I had an overabundance of original sin.
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've just come back from Vegas, and I was in on the caucus process. It's insane. What a mess. And also with these particular candidates who are running, so many times I said, I just wish Kurt Vonnegut were alive. This is like something he would be writing. This is just crazy stuff. I would love to hear his take on it.
Susan Sarandon
At a time when everything seems so out of control and the people you've elected are bogus and there's so much random violence and hatred, it fills you with such hope and admiration to even be part for a short time in a community where people have connected to strangers to try to put out a hand.
Susan Sarandon
I always had a problem with original sin I always had a problem with the exclusivity of the church and a lot of the things that the nuns taught me.
Susan Sarandon
How will the bombing of Baghdad, a city of five million, accomplish a regime change?
Susan Sarandon
I got married to Chris Sarandon, who was a graduate student, and he knew everything at that point, I thought, because he was older. He introduced me to poetry and black-and-white movies.
Susan Sarandon
We were friends with Jonathan Demme. We were all down on the West Side of New York, and I think I met Kurt Vonnegut through Edith Demme. And then I was lucky to do Who Am I This Time? 1982, which was an adaptation of his short story that Jonathan Demme directed with Chris Walken and I, and that really cemented the friendship.
Susan Sarandon
I'm a native New Yorker. Everything to do with New York feels like my family.
Susan Sarandon
If you always have to be watching yourself and judging, I don't think you're as free.
Susan Sarandon
The trouble with being an activist is you end up like Eve and you get kicked out of the Garden of Eden. You know, Eve was the first person who thought for herself. And she still gets a bad rap. I named my daughter after her.
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
