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.

More quotes by Will Smith
I've always been a jokester. The things I got in trouble for, when I was little, was always about making a joke or setting up a prank or being silly when I should be paying attention.
Will Smith
You can't win enough, you can't have enough money, you can't succeed enough. There is not enough. The only thing that will ever satiate that existential thirst is love. And I just remember that day I made the shift from wanting to be a winner to wanting to have the most powerful, deep, and beautiful relationships I could possibly have.
Will Smith
Money and success don't change people they merely amplify what is already there.
Will Smith
I believe you need to be educated about what you want to do in life, but I don't believe you actually need college to get you there.
Will Smith
For me, the greater purpose of the story is just to illuminate some pattern of human truth.
Will Smith
Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me danger is very real but fear is a choice.
Will Smith
Give me a problem, I'll give you a solution. I just love living. That's a feeling you can't fake. I'm glad every single day. I think that even the camera can feel that I'm a happy man.
Will Smith
I read a Bruce Lee quote that shifted how I'm trying to live my life right now. He said, Some targets are only meant to be aimed at. Right? And I took that to mean a shift for myself from goal orientation to path orientation.
Will Smith
Adolf Hitler was a vile, heinous, vicious killer responsible for one of the greatest acts of evil committed on this planet.
Will Smith
Ninety percent of what youre saying isnt coming out of your mouth.
Will Smith
I think with movies I am really connecting to the Joseph Campbell idea of the collective unconscious.
Will Smith
I have a great time with my life, and I wanna share it.
Will Smith
Don't ever let someone tell you that you can't do something. You got a dream, you gotta protect it. When people can't do something themselves, they are going to tell you that you can't do it. You want something, go get it. Period.
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
If you look at somebody like 50 Cent, ain't nobody telling 50 what to do and how to do what he does. He has a vision of who he wants to be, and he instructs everybody along those lines.
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
Greatness is not this, wonderful, esoteric, elusive, god-like feature that only the special among us will ever taste. You know? It's something that truly exists, in, all of us. It's very simple, this is what I believe, and, I'm willing to die for it. Period. It's that simple.
Will Smith
I think that when I make a film, I'm terrified that people will come to work and work on something that they're not proud of.
Will Smith
I was raised in a Baptist household, went to a Catholic church, lived in a Jewish neighborhood, and had the biggest crush on the Muslim girls from one neighborhood over.
Will Smith
The thing I wanted to focus on first was that I wanted to graduate, and (with me) coming back, I knew that I wanted another national championship. Another national championship is everyone's main goal, but we have to take it one game at a time. We can't get ahead of ourselves. We've got Washington first, then we'll see what happens.
