More quotes by Will Smith
Anything can go away. There's no such thing as safety and security. You can do things that give you the illusion of safety and security, but there's really no such thing.
Will Smith
I know who I am, I know what I believe, that's all I need to know. From there, you do what you need to do.
Will Smith
Being realistic is the quickest path to mediocrity
Will Smith
I refuse to accept anything less than 100% of what I can achieve.
Will Smith
Coming from sitcom television and coming from music you burn up every single second. You don't leave anything there. You burn it up and you pass out when you walk off stage, so I took that concept into acting.
Will Smith
You might be [outshining me in many ways]. But if we get on a treadmill, there are two things: you're getting off first or I'm going to die. It's that simple, right?
Will Smith
I have fun. I enjoy my life. And I was hardwired for a deep connection between service, God, and happiness. You kind of need all of those things to be in play for one to have the others.
Will Smith
I was trying so hard. I would memorize the entire script, then I'd be lipping everybody's lines while they were talking. When I watch those episodes, it's disgusting. My performances were horrible.
Will Smith
I love being black in America, and especially being black in Hollywood.
Will Smith
Life is lived on the edge.
Will Smith
The greatest experience I've ever had in a movie theater was watching Star Wars. It shaped how I look at the world. My imagination was so small before I went in that theater and there was an explosion in my head. I just couldn't figure out how someone came up with it.
Will Smith
There is no pain worse than not achieving a dream when it is your fault. If God did not want you to have it, that is one thing. But if you do not get what you desire because you are lazy, there is no pain worse than that.
Will Smith
Everybody need a partner to stand right by their side. Not only down for the good times. But also down through the bad times.
Will Smith
I'm a student of world religion, so to me, it's hugely important to have knowledge and to understand what people are doing.
Will Smith
Something hurts, lean in. You just lean into that point until it loses its power over you. There's a certain amount of suffering that you have to be willing to sustain if you want to have a good life. And the real trick is to be able to sustain it with your heart open and still be loving.
Will Smith
Just as a person, just in my life, the way I was raised, my grandmother made it very clear that God will make a way.
Will Smith
I want to represent possibilities.
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
Before 2010, I had a vision. I saw a family in my mind that I wanted to have. And I was pushing and driving hard for my picture, and then I realized everyone has their own journey. I have to support what they want to do. I have to support the vision that they have for themselves, not my vision. That was excruciating for me.
Will Smith
When you create art, the world has to wait.
