We've let the blade of our innocence dull over time, and it's only in innocence that you find any kind of magic, any kind of courage.

I cannot tell you that I ever...

I cannot tell you that I ever fell in love with the theater as an audience. I fell in love with the theater as an actor for a period of time, but I have struggled as an audience, and I struggle more now than then. I was always a movie guy.

When I buy a Nikon camera, I have no tolerance for the instructions. I'm ready to make some mistakes using it and get some bad pictures back until I've figured it out for myself.

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

I love stories about people who are smart enough to know that what they're doing is destroying them, but that knowing that doesn't help them.

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.

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

I'm a huge Woody Allen fan. Good movie, bad movie, it doesn't matter - I just like his movies.

I've always operated under the notion that audiences don't always know when they're being lied to, but that they always know when they're being told the truth.

Sean Penn 104 quotes

Selling a movie feels like a hustle to every bone in my body. Many actors have careers dominated by modeling. They're all over the place. It turns me off. People who are good at what they do ought to practice something bigger.

I don't consider myself speci...

I don't consider myself specifically political, you know? I think of working as an actor as being a human thing. The concerns I have that fall into politics are human concerns.

Sean Penn 104 quotes

You're always having to live ...

You're always having to live more to fuel something new. It's an obligation to yourself and to the audience. The personal baggage that comes with being a known actor just adds to that struggle.

A child gets a fever in the United States and it's high enough and sustainable enough, all of us can bring a child to an emergency room. Most Haitians never had that opportunity. They didn't have the emergency room to bring them to. Virtually every time your child has 102 fever, you wait for it to die and you have no clean water to give it.

I still think photographers should be lashed out at. They should be put in a cage where you can poke them with a stick for a quarter. But not in a hostile way, just for giggles. They really are on the attack against mankind; it's a disease. They should be helped somewhere. But I'd still like to poke them with a stick.

I don't see life as an opportunity to see how far you can go in the pursuit of pain, although I think I've challenged it a bit.

I can make a better living as an actor than I can as a director. Though I certainly would prefer to be directing movies.

Turning one's back on stardom...

Turning one's back on stardom might be the highest form of common sense. One that I would aspire to be more complete with.

Sean Penn 104 quotes

Putting something in a movie ...

Putting something in a movie because it's in the news doesn't make it political to me. If you're not going outside the same old, same old, if you're not pushing the envelope, then you're not doing anything. A good movie is a political thing.

Sean Penn 104 quotes

I've been a road-rat since I got my driver's licence at 16, so I've probably gone across America 20 times.

Hal Holbrook was in one of my first television movies when I was about 18 or 19. He'd made such a strong impression on me and a lasting one in terms of what being an actor was.
