More quotes by Will Smith
I consider myself an alchemist. An alchemist is basically a mystical chemist, right? And one of the great feats that alchemists used to do is they would take lead - just take a chunk of lead - and they could turn lead into gold.

It's better to be prepared than to get ready.

Tommy Lee Jones is hilarious. I would say, if you look at the body of his work, the character he is most like is the one in 'The Fugitive.' That's how he talks and jokes. That is the type of energy he has.
Will Smith
Well, all I know is what I read in the papers.
Will Smith
Why is life at this point in the twentieth century so focused upon the very beginning of life and the very end of life? What about the 80 years we have to live between those two inexorable bookends?
Will Smith
I'm motivated by fear. Fear of fear. I hate being scared to do something. And I think what developed in my early days was the attitude that I started attacking things that I was scared of.
Will Smith
Being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to mediocrity. Why would you be realistic? What's the point of being realistic? I'm going to do it. It's done. It's already done. The second I decide it's done, it's already done.
Will Smith
I am inspired beyond my ability to articulate... and now I know what and who I want to be... a soldier for peace.
Will Smith
I'm starting to be a lot more comfortable with allowing people to decide for themselves and almost creating a situation that forces people to decide for themselves whether they like it or don't like it or agree with the character or disagree with the character.
Will Smith
And where I excel is ridiculous, sickening, work ethic. You know, while the other guy's sleeping? I'm working.
Will Smith
I want to represent possibilities.
Will Smith
I think with movies I am really connecting to the Joseph Campbell idea of the collective unconscious.
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
The central idea of love is not even a relationship commitment, the first thing is a personal commitment to be the best version of yourself with or without that person that you're with. You have to every single day-mind, body, and spirit-wake up with a commitment to be better.
Will Smith
The separation of talent and skill is one of the greatest misunderstood concepts for people who are trying to excel, who have dreams, who want to do things. Talent you have naturally. Skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours of beating on your craft.
Will Smith
We didn't grow up with the sense that where we were was where we were gonna be. We grew up with the sense that where we were almost didn't matter, because we will be becoming something greater.
Will Smith
You have to create something in a way that has direction, that it has vision, and then your partner will take it and figure out whatever their expertise is.
Will Smith
When you create art, the world has to wait.
Will Smith
There are so many people who have lived and died before you. You will never have a new problem you're not going to ever have a new problem. Somebody wrote the answer down in a book somewhere.
Will Smith
The road to success is through commitment.
