I can rely on me [being a director], unlike some actors. I never got anything less than what I needed from the lead actor.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

I do occasionally wonder, if y...

I do occasionally wonder, if you were to bring to life one of those young men who sacrificed themselves in what was advertised to them as the Great War, and the war to end all war, and show them that we're still engaged in armed conflict in the same area, I'm not sure that they would be pleased about what their sacrifices amounted to.

It's such an intimate experience, being a director, artistically. It's deep and it's satisfying and it's wonderful, on so many levels, but it's also really scary.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

Nobody wants zealotry in a pol...

Nobody wants zealotry in a police force, you know? You do want to know that the guy who's got that badge, is confident enough to judge a certain level of benign corruption. Like a man steals some food to feed his starving children.

I have to believe I got some kind of say over our lives.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

Some of the things you read you get an immediate reaction to so I've stopped reading things now. I do worry about my family though. Some people do try some nasty things to get at them and try and get a reaction from them.

From an over-arching point-of-...

From an over-arching point-of-view, in war there is heroism on both sides. Obviously, the victor gets the spoils, the victor gets to write history, but there's heroism and compassion on both sides, and to me that's very important.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

Once you're a parent, male or ...

Once you're a parent, male or female, every single thing that happens in your life is seen through the prism of being a parent.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

When you're heading into Anzac...

When you're heading into Anzac cove you are going into this battle situation staring into the sun. So, any movement in that water, any glint is going to be seen for miles away. Even in the first rays of dawn, there's nowhere to hide.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

Australians and New Zealanders...

Australians and New Zealanders don't talk about Gallipoli in terms of invasion. I started talking about it and using that word and at first there were a few people who were getting upset in the same way that in any country, if you work for a newspaper you know exactly the dude you can go and talk to get a knee-jerk reaction when it comes to something to do with the military.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

I think that if there are prob...

I think that if there are problems in journalism they're created by journalists... the trivialisation of the news and the sort of snyed, cynical allowance of untruth to be in a newspaper because it might be titillating.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

I think if there's some kind o...

I think if there's some kind of crisis in news journalism... a crisis of credibility, then it's been created by journalists. I'm empathetic, I understand it and I see it, but I'm not sympathetic about it. If you want people to think of journalism with higher regard then do better work.

My bottom line is that I think...

My bottom line is that I think Ridley Scott is one of the greatest visual artists of our time and I feel very privileged that he wants to work with me, so I go with that flow.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

Anyway, I'm doing my rave and ...

Anyway, I'm doing my rave and this spittle comes out of my mouth and it winds its way very delicately through the wire fence that separates us and lands clear and bright on Denzel's lip. And we're at the beginning of the scene and I've got to do the rest of the scene, and the camera isn't on him, it's on me - and I'm fully aware that I've just spat on Denzel Washington!

Do I think Cate Blanchett is the most spectacular creature that ever walked the planet? Yes, I do.

I don't know if I was ever looking for this kind of success- it came along as a by-product of concentrating on what I was doing.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

There has to be a mathematical explanation for how bad that tie is.

My definition [of genius] woul...

My definition [of genius] would be about being completely involved in your art form. So that's outside of sciences. Within the arts it's about taking people on a journey, being able to involve me completely-whether you're singing a song, whether it's in the theater, whether you're dancing-if you can make me forget I'm sitting in a seat, that's my definition of genius.

I'm not one of those fellows that is just going to have a psuedo-middling relationship.

Russell Crowe 179 quotes

I want to make movies that pie...

I want to make movies that pierce people's hearts and touch them in some way, even if it's just for the night while they're in the cinema; in that moment, I want to bring actual tears to their eyes and goosebumps to their skin.
