Warren Beatty
I grew up in this Southern Baptist atmosphere, and my mother and father were both, I guess you would say, academics. They were both teachers.
Warren Beatty
Being here allows me to make the case that not all aging, narcissistic movie actors whose children could be mistaken for their grandchildren necessarily act with the same motivation.
Warren Beatty
I believe if a private citizen is able to affect public opinion in a constructive way, he doesn't have to be an elected public servant to perform a public service.
Warren Beatty
How can anybody hate nurses? Nobody hates nurses. The only time you hate a nurse is when they're giving you an enema.
Warren Beatty
I don't want to run for governor, but I don't think anyone should put public service out of the question because that's not what a good citizen does.
Warren Beatty
Just because you need a quart of milk doesn't mean you have to go out and buy a whole cow.
Warren Beatty
That's all gone, now, the old, Hollywood.
Warren Beatty
I always feel that I'm sort of co-directing with my fellow actors. And you can tell when something's going on that really interests them and they approve of. And then you can sort of tell when there's not.
Warren Beatty
Charity is taking an ugly girl to lunch.
