"Every actor I think has got their own number of takes that they like, you know. Some actors like to go all day, you know on the one scene and some actors want to take two takes. I personally like four."

"Being unemployed is not good for an actor. No, it isn't, no matter how unsuccessful you are. Because you always remember getting fired from all the restaurants. You remember that stuff very, very strongly."

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."

Ideas

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"This idea of how everything is interconnected, and the impermanence of things. It sums up the human condition to me, and it helps me on my path."

Idea

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"A large part of acting is just pretending. You get to work with these other great make-believers, all making believe as hard as they can."

Work

Quote_1.png
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. I'm in this wonderful position to be able to do that. The reason I do that is because I know what it takes once I engage, what that means for me personally and for my wife."

Work

Jeff Bridges
"I had a great '70s. I survived it, and that's always good news."

News

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"Most cynics are really crushed romantics: they've been hurt, they're sensitive, and their cynicism is a shell that's protecting this tiny, dear part in them that's still alive."

Cynicism

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"I had years of partying, and I was kind of surprised and happy I survived it all. Now, being a parent, I look back on it thinking, Oh God, the things you did!"

God

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"Sure, I get the blues. But what I try to do, is apply joy to the blues, you know? I don't know if it's a technique, or just being bent that way, being raised by the folks I was raised by."

Being

Quote_1.png
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."

Father

Quote_1.png
Jeff Bridges
"One of the things I want to do that's outside the realm of acting and the arts - although both have their place in this - is ending childhood hunger here in America."
