Leonardo DiCaprio Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Leonardo DiCaprio:

I get a friend to travel with me... I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It's hard to be alone.

If a studio is going to offer me the opportunity to invite my mother and grandmother and all my friends to visit me free of charge in Thailand, I'm going to take that opportunity.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I've always been spontaneous and outgoing... I've tried lots of things so I've got some good life experiences, which is great 'cause it means I've got lots of material to work with as an actor.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I like to be able to play a character and act out a lot of things which I can't or don't do in my normal everyday life.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I've managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I didn't know what types of movies I wanted to do. I want to do things that are different. I want to take my time with each role.

Leonardo DiCaprio

The bottom line is, when it comes to an actor and his performance, whether nominated or not, it simply has to do with whether that character had enough resonance with the audience. You know, to the filmgoers. And that something that you can't control.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I don't think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of.

Leonardo DiCaprio

When a role for a young guy is being offered to me, I think of River Phoenix. It feels like a loss.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I've never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately. It's been a much slower process for me each time I've gone into a relationship.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I get unhappy doing things that I'm not passionate about. Because I feel like I'm squandering this incredible gift I've been given to finance films. As soon as my name alone was enough to make this happen, I vowed to myself that I was going to work with directors who were changing cinema, doing something important, you know?

Leonardo DiCaprio

Don't think for a moment that I'm really like any of the characters I've played. I'm not. That's why it's called 'acting'.

Leonardo DiCaprio

My mother is a walking miracle.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Everywhere I go, somebody is staring at me, I don't know if people are staring because they recognize me or because they think I'm a weirdo.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without wild rumors being circulated. It's crazy.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I realise that I do not change the course of history. I am an actor, I do a movie, that's the end of it. You have to realise we are just clowns for hire. After I had success it was great, at first, not to worry about money. It was on my mind when I was growing up.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I want to be a jerk like the rest of my friends, and have fun, and not care about the consequences, but I just can't now.

Leonardo DiCaprio

School, I never truly got the knack of. I could never focus on things I didn't want to learn.

Leonardo DiCaprio

To believe in love, to be ready to give up anything for it, to be willing to risk your life for it, is the ultimate tragedy.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I've been a pretty lucky man.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I have a production company,; I have a foundation. I have a lot of responsibilities. Not family - just a lot of responsibilities.

Leonardo DiCaprio

My father, George, has also affected the choices in my life regarding films. I like films that take chances or say something different or experiment. Growing up with him, I was surrounded by different artists - not just actors or film-makers but cartoonists, poets, writers.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Raising awareness on the most pressing environmental issues of our time is more important than ever.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I had a period when I was sixteen where I started to get a big head. I was going through puberty, and I was nominated for an Academy Award. My head got inflated. My friends were the real ones who said, 'You're acting different.' But the truth is that I don't need that, because I don't get out of hand.

Leonardo DiCaprio

You do need parental guidance and I was in a great position with both my mum and dad. They split when I was a baby but even though I stayed with my mom they were both very much involved in my upbringing.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Drugs? Every one has a choice and I choose not to do drugs.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Brothers don't necessarily have to say anything to each other - they can sit in a room and be together and just be completely comfortable with each other.

Leonardo DiCaprio

It's easy to fall into the trap of believing all the hype that's written about you... Who knows? In a couple of years, you might find me in the loony bin!

Leonardo DiCaprio

The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it... It's a great outlet. I'm not really sure who I am - it seems I change every day.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I have to say that whatever decisions I make, I really do think that movie making is a director's medium. They are the people that ultimately shape the film, and a director can take great material and turn it into garbage if they are not capable of making a good movie.

Leonardo DiCaprio

If you have the ability to convince somebody of something that you don't necessarily think is the case, it's a valuable asset. Not that I'm, like, a pathological liar, but we spend most of the day not fully being honest, you know?

Leonardo DiCaprio

I am not of the vein of actors - and I will not pretend to be one - that takes my character home with me. I don't.

Leonardo DiCaprio

People are always like, 'It must be so hard for you, not to be able to leave your house. I'm like, 'No, I go where I want and do whatever I want all the time.' 'No, you walk down the street?' 'Yeah, I do all the time.' 'Really?' 'Yeah, all the time.'

Leonardo DiCaprio

I get a friend to travel with me... I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It's hard to be alone.

Leonardo DiCaprio

With Romeo and Juliet, you're talking about two people who meet one night, and get married the same night. I believe in love at first sight-but it hasn't happened to me yet.

Leonardo DiCaprio

If you can do what you do best and be happy, you're further along in life than most people.
