It took me a good decade of hiding in my house and not going outside to even, like, get my arms around this idea of celebrity, where suddenly people are looking for you to pick your nose or get a shot of you kissing some woman. It's a very discombobulating thing.

Most of the time is with the ...

Most of the time is with the family. Most of the time, is all the time. When we work it's a very intensive chunk of time. We work for 12 hours a day, 14 hours a day is common. And we'll do that for a few months and then we get to relax a little bit.

I don't want to die without scars.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I'm not a big proponent of ha...

I'm not a big proponent of happiness. I think it's highly overrated. I think misery is underrated. There's so much value in that. You can't have one without the other.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I think happiness is overrate...

I think happiness is overrated. Satisfied, at peace-those would be more realistic goals.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

Get into something that's rea...

Get into something that's really personal that means something to you, where you have something to say and is something really individualized. I wish I was more aware of that when I started my career instead of doing a few things I was told would be good for me. And they weren't, because it left me empty, so I didn't do a good job anyways. I think that's what's key to what we do: It's got to be personal.

So much of making movies is about discovery on the day, what you're figuring out. If you know everything going in, then it's not worth doing - it's already done. I'm interested in finding people who I think have a voice - and a very specific voice.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

The gods envy us. They envy u...

The gods envy us. They envy us because we’re mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we’re doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I didn't realize how interest...

I didn't realize how interesting the place I come from is until I left home and saw how other cultures handled things differently.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I grew up on particular movie...

I grew up on particular movies that said something to me as a kid from Missouri, movies that showed me places I'd yet traveled, or different cultures, or explained something, or said something in a better way than I could ever say. I wanted to find the movies like that. It was less about a career than finding the films I wanted to see.

I'm actually very snobbish about directors. I have to say 'no' all the time. 'No' is the most powerful word in our business. You've got to protect yourself.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

My father came from a very po...

My father came from a very poor background, but I was very fortunate in the sense that we were never in need. My dad was determined to make sure that we didn't want for things. He wanted to give us more opportunity than he had, a better shot at a better life.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I have a hard time with morals. All I know is what feels right, what's more important to me is being honest about who you are. Morals I get a little hung up on.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

My affliction has been... I c...

My affliction has been... I can make something or draw something or design something better than I can explain it.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

I look and there's our boy from Vietnam and our daughter from Ethiopia, and our girl was born in Namibia, and our son is from Cambodia, and they're brothers and sisters, man. They're brothers and sisters and it's a sight for elation.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

If I'm gonna spend however lo...

If I'm gonna spend however long it takes to make a movie, give up 14 hours a day for however many weeks or months, then it's very important for me to know that I'm working with people who I respect and enjoy and that we're going for something together.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

Listen, I've been pretty fort...

Listen, I've been pretty fortunate. And if I've been underrated, it's actually been something I've been able to work with; I can surprise people. It sets me up to exceed expectations, so I don't mind.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

It might be a very human thin...

It might be a very human thing across the board, but we, in America, love a story - we need a story to get involved in. But then everything becomes more about how the story protects a certain perception as we pick sides.

Brad Pitt 284 quotes

This idea of perpetual happin...

This idea of perpetual happiness is crazy and overrated, because those dark moments fuel you for the next bright moments; each one helps you appreciate the other.

I'm an Obama supporter, no question. But it doesn't mean there's nothing to learn from the other side.
