Jeff Bridges Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Jeff Bridges:

There's a bit of the kid in me.

Like most kids, you don't want to do what your folks want you to do. You've got your own thing.

Jeff Bridges

Well, there are all kinds of gutters. Life will supply you with gutters.

Jeff Bridges

Making films is sort of like you're pulling off a magic trick. It's sort of like an illusion. It's not real but you want it to appear real, and all kinds of things go into that, from the clothes you're wearing to the make-up, to the light.

Jeff Bridges

As far as Beau is concerned, we're on the same team, we root for each other. If my parts are slightly more attractive, or are perceived that way by others, he's very content.

Jeff Bridges

If you change partners every time it gets tough or you get a little dissatisfied, then I don't think you get the richness that's available in a long-term relationship.

Jeff Bridges

Nowadays it seems more and more like the 'business' in 'show business' is underlined, and there are campaigns, and it's all part of getting people in to see the movies.

Jeff Bridges

It's easy to point out the evil in other people, but that can be found in all of us. That selfishness, that is something we all have in us. Sometimes you are successful at dealing with it, and sometimes you are not.

Jeff Bridges

One in four kids in the U.S. faces hunger.

Jeff Bridges

Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child isn't.

Jeff Bridges

I have hesitation making any kind of decision, really in my life. I'm really slow at it.

Jeff Bridges

My approach to working in movies is to empower the director to have power over me and to really support his vision because he's the guy, at the end of the day, who's going to put it all together.

Jeff Bridges

Technology is such a broad kind of term, it really applies to so many things, from the electric light to running cars on oil. All of these different things can be called technology. I have kind of a love-hate relationship with it, as I expect most people do. With the computer, I spend so many hours sitting in front of a computer.

Jeff Bridges

You know, ballet might be too formal of a title for the type of dance I do, but I love to dance.

Jeff Bridges

I consider myself a lazy guy, but I do a bunch of stuff, and I'm so busy that in my downtime, I like to be with my wife, who I'm just madly in love with.

Jeff Bridges

Working with my dad was such a gas. We approached the work in a similar way. We only made two films together when I was an adult, Tucker, and Blown Away, but it was so much fun to play with your parent like that.

Jeff Bridges

Words fall short sometimes.

Jeff Bridges

Yeah, I'd been around horses most of my life.

Jeff Bridges

I've had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I've been very lucky that way.

Jeff Bridges

For me, growing up, the downside of it was that as a kid you don't want to stand out. You don't want to have a famous father let alone get a job because of your famous father, you know? But I'm a product of nepotism. That's how I got my foot in the door, through my dad.

Jeff Bridges

What I learned most from my father wasn't anything he said; it was just the way he behaved. He loved his work so much that, whenever he came on set, he brought that with him, and other people rose to it.

Jeff Bridges

I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film, we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.

Jeff Bridges

As filmmakers, we're constantly always looking for something to bring the audience deeper into the reality of the story we're telling.

Jeff Bridges

Whenever I work on a part, I look at the world through the filter of the character and I pick things they might use through my observations of real life.

Jeff Bridges

Nowadays, in the contract that actors sign, you have to agree that you're going to do a certain amount of publicity-the hard part they don't pay you for.

Jeff Bridges

My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life.

Jeff Bridges

My website's kind of fun for me. I get to do drawings on that. It's kind of fun.

Jeff Bridges

I think there's a real joy in going to see movies when you discover them yourself.

Jeff Bridges

The Widelux is a fickle mistress; its viewfinder isn't accurate, and there's no manual focus, so it has an arbitrariness to it, a capricious quality. I like that.

Jeff Bridges

Yeah I loved, as a kid growing up, I loved science-fiction.

Jeff Bridges

I've gone out of my way to not take baggage with me from film to film.

Jeff Bridges

Work takes me away from my wife, Sue, and my life in Santa Barbara.

Jeff Bridges

I resist life.

Jeff Bridges

My m.o. as far as choosing projects is I really try not to work. I try to not do the scripts that are offered me.

Jeff Bridges

In my career, I really set out not to develop too strong a persona so that you wouldn't have a hard time imagining me in any given role. I wanted to pleasantly confuse the audience on who I was.

Jeff Bridges

I kind of quit surfing when I got out of high school, but then a few years ago I started to take it up again. I'm not an expert by any means, but it's so wonderful to get out in the ocean and get a different perspective on things.

Jeff Bridges

Myths are wonderful tools that we've had, oh, for eons now that help us navigate the situations we find ourselves in.
