More quotes by Tom Hanks
I've been doing a pale imitation of Bill Murray for most of my career.
Tom Hanks
Reading a script is usually as exciting as reading a boilerplate legal document, so when you read one that makes you feel as if you're seeing the movie, you know it's something different.
Tom Hanks
I am who I am, and I think I have a good nature, by and large. But if someone takes advantage of that good nature, well then, you know, I'm not that nice a guy.
Tom Hanks
There's such an advantage to being involved in the day-to-day details of each other's lives. It's a marvelous fabric to exist in.
Tom Hanks
The prejudice surrounding AIDS exacts a social death which precedes the actual physical one.
Tom Hanks
But actors with political views are a dime a dozen.
Tom Hanks
I have high blood sugars, and Type 2 diabetes is not going to kill me. But I just have to eat right, and exercise, and lose weight, and watch what I eat, and I will be fine for the rest of my life.
Tom Hanks
I was never intimidated by change. I was like an army brat who had lived all around the world.
Tom Hanks
I'm not looking for anything. If you start looking for something specific, then you take providence right out of it. You can't completely control it. Otherwise you'd make the same kind of movie over and over again, which some people say I've done.
Tom Hanks
Never give up because you never know what the tide will bring in the next day.
Tom Hanks
I will entertain anything it doesn't matter. You know, it's not obviously about the price, it's not about who, it's kind of about when and what. It's material, that's all.
Tom Hanks
I'm not interested in doing something edgy with a capital E just so everyone knows, 'Oh, OK, now he's showing us he can do edgy.'
Tom Hanks
Believing is seeing and seeing is believing.
Tom Hanks
There isn't any great mystery about me. What I do is glamorous and has an awful lot of white-hot attention placed on it. But the actual work requires the same discipline and passion as any job you love doing, be it as a very good pipe fitter or a highly creative artist.
Tom Hanks
I know the Pope is opposed to the use of condoms. All I can say is, I am a spiritual man and I've been happily married for 21 years. I don't even know what a condom is anymore.
Tom Hanks
In the early days you have a tendency to intellectualize, but you're really just trying to sound smart and score with the chicks.
Tom Hanks
You have to adhere to a philosophy that the life unexamined is not worth living, because otherwise you're just living from day to day and you don't have any real sense of yourself or where you are.
Tom Hanks
For some people, I will be Forrest Gump for the rest of my life. But that's OK that's a good thing.
Tom Hanks
It's difficult to say no sometimes. I often hear, They'll really take care of you, or Someone else is going to take the role if you don't play it. Some of the best advice I ever received was to always ask myself: Am I going to kill myself if somebody else takes this role? The answer is almost always no.
Tom Hanks
There was nothing to react to except wind and trees [in Cast Away]. It was like making a silent movie.
Tom Hanks
