More quotes by Will Smith
Goofy was the word that was used most often by my sisters because I've been this tall ever since I was 12 years old.
Will Smith
I believe that I can create whatever I want to create. If I can put my head on it right, study it, learn the patterns, and - it's hard to put into words, it's real metaphysical, esoteric nonsense, but I feel very strongly that we are who we choose to be.
Will Smith
Here I stand before you - brown. Color of the mountains Colossal as the earth Wrapped so deliciously within my own joy and misery Feathers of my wings paralyzed by the distance of my mind Here I stand before you, the color of the night Frozen by the potential of me.
Will Smith
I don't know what my calling is, but I want to be here for a bigger reason. I strive to be like the greatest people who have ever lived.

The Bible talks about your spirit being immortal, that you were created for existence beyond your physical body. Well, that's no different from Scientology! I don't think that because the word someone uses for spirit is thetan that the definition becomes any different.
Will Smith
There's so much negative imagery of black fatherhood. I've got tons of friends that are doing the right thing by their kids, and doing the right thing as a father - and how come that's not as newsworthy?
Will Smith
You play a part in every aspect of your life going the way you want or not going the way that you want. It has very little to do with other people.
Will Smith
Begging for acknowledgment, or even asking, diminishes dignity and diminishes power.
Will Smith
If you learn how to defeat that person when you're running. You will know how to not quit when things get hard in your life.
Will Smith
My biggest emotional defeat and the greatest emotional pain I've had as an actor was when Wild Wild West opened up to $52 million. The movie wasn't good. And it hurt so bad to be the No. 1 movie - to open at $52 million - and to know the movie wasn't good.

Ninety percent of what youre saying isnt coming out of your mouth.
Will Smith
In my mind, I've always been an A-list Hollywood superstar. Y'all just didn't know yet.
Will Smith
I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill.
Will Smith
I want to represent the idea that you really can make what you want I believe I can create whatever I want to create.

A human being having a full emotional conversation with a dog is funny, innately. It's one of those things where you get in a scene and you always go for what is the best joke, and a talking dog for some reason, whatever he says, is hilarious. (about his role wiht a talking dog in the forthcoming MEN IN BLACK sequel.
