Famous quotes by Sean Penn:

"You tolerate me, you really tolerate me. [Accepting his Independent Spirit Award]"

"There are some cigarette burns in some funny places."

"It's a tough story, but I think it has a lot more than grimness to offer...it's what we are experiencing in our lifetime."

"These are the rare directors who come along, and you're lucky if you stumble across one as an actor."

"tearing oneself apart for the amusement of the audience."

"It's human to want to get your hands in it."

"Family makes me feel there's a reason I'm alive... I'm feeling my life, which I didn't always do partly because I'd be drunk a lot."

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

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

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

"There is no re-inventing the wheel."

"I'm not a breakfast eater."

"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."

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

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

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

"I think life's an irrational obsession."

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

"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."

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