More quotes by Tom Hanks
Mama always said, dying was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn't.
Tom Hanks
When I was 21 years old, I had a job playing Santa Claus in a shopping centre in Sacramento. I was rail thin, so it's not like I was a traditional Santa Claus even then. I had a square stomach that was the shape of the sofa cushion that I had stuffed into my pants.
Tom Hanks
My work is really a blast. When it stops being a blast, then it ain't no fun no more!
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
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
E-mail is far more convenient than the telephone, as far as I'm concerned. I would throw my phone away if I could get away with it.

Saying no to something is actually much more powerful than saying yes.
Tom Hanks
I've worked with people who are much further to the left than I am and much further to the right than I am. At the end of the day, who gives a ... . Good for you. This is America. Vote your conscience.
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
Help, and you will make a huge impact in the life of the street, the town, the country and our planet. If only one out of four of each one hundred of you choose to help on any given day, in any given cause, incredible things will happen in the world you live in.
Tom Hanks
I don't ask for much. I don't ask to be rich, and I don't ask to be famous, and I don't ask to play center field for the New York Yankees. I just want to get married and have a wife, and a house, and I want to have a kid, and I want to go see him be a tooth in the school play!
Tom Hanks
It was incredibly cheesy set with torches [TV's Survivor] - it looked like the lobby of the Enchanted Tiki Room at Disneyland. And here as some guy pulling names out of a coconut, and I said, 'This is the thing that has made American mass media stop in their tracks?
Tom Hanks
Audiences crave something they've never seen before. That's what they want. They want to be dazzled. They want to go in either to have their expectations blown out of the water, or have no expectations and are dazzled by the decisions that we filmmakers made.
Tom Hanks
If you have to have a job in this world, a high-priced movie star is a pretty good gig.
Tom Hanks
Shake it off and move on.
Tom Hanks
I don't parade my family out for display, which is the way it will stay. Yet I have a reputation for being cooperative with the press. That's because when I do give an interview, I'm willing to tell the truth about what I do for a living and how goofy it is sometimes - and how volatile it can also be.
Tom Hanks
Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me wanna buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address. On the other hand, this not knowing has its charms.
Tom Hanks
My job has always been to hold a mirror up to nature.
Tom Hanks
If you look at romantic comedies as pieces of commerce, the audience is looking for wish fulfillment.
Tom Hanks
From now on we live in a world where man has walked on the Moon. It's not a miracle we just decided to go.
