I look at Bill Clinton, the way I look at Bill Gates. As long as my Microsoft stock is going up, I don't care what Bill Gates does in the privacy of his own home.

More quotes by Will Smith
Begging for acknowledgment, or even asking, diminishes dignity and diminishes power.
Will Smith
The guy who's willing to hustle the most is gonna be the guy that just gets that loose ball.
Will Smith
Black people playing tennis, next white people will be tap dancing!
Will Smith
My God, my higher power. It's mine and mine alone. I create my connection and I decide how my connection is going to be.
Will Smith
The first step is you have to say that you can.
Will Smith
I think with movies I am really connecting to the Joseph Campbell idea of the collective unconscious.
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
The desire to be a good father is really innate. There aren't a lot of movies that depict that relationship because men, we have to pretend that we're not that emotional about it.
Will Smith
The big thing I tell my kids is you have to control how you label things. It's very important to me they understand the power they have to create the lives that they want.
Will Smith
There's a certain delusional quality that all successful people have to have.
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.
Will Smith
I want to take care of people. I want to help people. The maximum joy that I have is when I can create something that makes someone else's life lighter, brighter, or better.
Will Smith
Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away.
Will Smith
Being realistic is the most commonly travelled road to mediocrity. What's the point of being realistic? It's unrealistic to walk into a room, flip a switch, and have light come on, but fortunately Edison didn't think so.
Will Smith
Part of being an actor is almost self-hypnosis during those brief moments when the cameras are rolling. You want to actually believe you're Chris Gardner or Muhammad Ali.
Will Smith
Sorry, I'm allergic to bullshit.
Will Smith
Can I say something? Um, I'm the type of person that if you ask me a question and I don't know the answer, I'm gonna tell you that I don't know. But I bet you what, I know how to find the answer and I will find the answer.
Will Smith
You'd be surprised how much you don't understand what other people see your actions as how other people view the things you say and the things that you do. And a lot of times just clarifying what your intentions are with people makes a huge difference.
Will Smith
I've always been attracted to characters with insurmountable odds and obstacles, because innately, however inarticulately I've always believed that my dreams and my desires can command and bend time and space to be the things that I want them to be.
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.
