Sean Penn Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Sean Penn:

I can always see light in any situation. It's just the way I'm made.

I think that I've still not been successful at playing the role of the retired actor, and I'd like to work on that.

Sean Penn

You try to do your best at what you're getting paid for.

Sean Penn

In my teens, I fell in love with the movies.

Sean Penn

Somewhere along the line, the actions of this government are the actions of me.

Sean Penn

Well, look at all of these summer blockbusters. You can't help but laugh a little, because you've already seen a lot of these movies 482 times.

Sean Penn

I don't have any particular excitement about working with any specific director or actor at this point.

Sean Penn

Love is a mess, at best, and I figure it can be very real in spite of all the things people try to attach to it.

Sean Penn

I think life's an irrational obsession.

Sean Penn

I had a house burn down once, and everything in life burned, except my family, and it was so liberating. I didn't have a bad moment about it. It sort of reinvigorated my interest in a lot of things.

Sean Penn

Child-rearing is my main interest now. I'm a hands-on father.

Sean Penn

There is no shame in my saying that we all want to be loved by someone. As I look back over my life in romance, I don't feel I've ever had that.

Sean Penn

Well, I think that when you direct a movie or write it. And in the case of the two movies I did, I wrote and directed, they occupy a special place for you.

Sean Penn

Sacrificing American soldiers or innocent civilians in an unprecedented preemptive attack on a separate sovereign nation may well prove itself a most temporary medicine.

Sean Penn

When I was growing up and somebody like Robert De Niro had a movie come out, it was a cultural event. Because he had such a confidence and a single mission that was so intimate.

Sean Penn

That on a romantic level, if you feel it about somebody and it's pure, it means that they do too.

Sean Penn

There's not a lot of good movies being made.

Sean Penn

There's a lot of mediocrity being celebrated, and a lot of wonderful stuff being ignored or discouraged.

Sean Penn

If you're willing to put two thoughts into a picture then you're already ahead of the game.

Sean Penn

At this stage, what would be rewarding would be for audiences to want to watch.

Sean Penn

There are a few directors around who I have some excitement about spending my $7 at the theatre watching their movies.

Sean Penn

There is no re-inventing the wheel.

Sean Penn

I've never really been one to get what they call stage fright so much.

Sean Penn

So if we have anything original to offer, it's to speak from our own life about the society we're in.

Sean Penn

When you act in a film, you're inevitably surrounded by people you didn't choose, right down to the set painter. I like being able to pick the family I'm waking up to in the morning that's going to make this group effort to tell a story that applies to what's interesting to me at that stage in my life.

Sean Penn

I love acting, truly my favorite people are actors.

Sean Penn

Yeah, I had actually tried to stop acting before I made Dead Man Walking.

Sean Penn

I think you start to prepare the minute you read something.

Sean Penn

'The Indian Runner' was easy. It had been incubating in me for eight years, and by the time I sat down to write the thing, I had all the pictures in my head.

Sean Penn

Oh, I'm a big-mouth. I said a lot of things.

Sean Penn

Yeah, I had a tremendous time shooting in Nebraska. I like that state a lot, all over it.

Sean Penn

What happens is things come to you - director, script - and if you respond to it, it's because it's tapping into some part of what's inside you, and different roles tap into different parts.

Sean Penn

The bottom line is, you love your wife, you do your best with that.

Sean Penn

My favorite thing to do is not act - it's that simple.

Sean Penn

I'm not a breakfast eater.

Sean Penn

I really love to make movies.

Sean Penn

I think we all have light and dark inside us.
