Giovanni Ribisi’s 5 most popular quotes

  • I don’t think that many people today, understand the nature of what an improv does for an actor in a specific setting. What an improv does for an actor is help him find the life; it’s the life that an actor’s after.
  • Acting is ephemeral. It’s not like making a painting that lasts forever. You’re doing something, and the very action which comes and goes, is being demonstrated in front of you. Within that process, you’re trying to go against the grain.
  • If you do improvising, it can sometimes end up being a waste of time. And if you do that, it’s more or less based on a writing process.
  • A lot of writers, because they don’t understand actors, feel like, in order to be better at their performance, they have to change the words around a lot.
  • I’m really happy with where I am, the movies in my life. Not satisfied, necessarily. But I won’t put it on somebody else, blame anybody else for my position in the business. It’s the choices I have made.
