The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Matthew Modine
- We should all aspire in life to do a multitude of things well – to be a great father, to be a good husband, to be a good lover, you know, to try to do things the best you can is very important to me.
- Photography is about light and what it does and how it is captured on a piece of negative.
- Stanley didn’t shy away from true humanity or from the ugliness that all people are capable of.
- I never set out to be rich and famous. I wanted to follow my own path.
- I don’t think that digital photography is romantic yet. It’s not sympathetic the way that film is.
- Imagine if somebody were to really sit down with Osama bin Ladin and say, ‘Listen man, what is it that you’re so angry at me about that you’re willing to have people strap bombs to themselves, or get inside of airplanes and fly them into buildings?’ That would be the miracle if we can get, sit down and talk to our enemies and find a way for them to hear us.
- My father taught me to paint when I was young with watercolors and so I learned at a very young age the essential elements of the value of light and composition.
- Real spiritual journey in life is the discovery of self. I think once you take all the religious bullshit away from Jesus Christ, it’s saying it’s about this journey of discovering who you are, and what’s really important in life is simply love. That the journey of civilization, the journey of understanding, is forgiveness, is empathy. And that’s what humanity is striving for.
- When you’re young, you get by on charm and good looks, not that I miss being charming or good-looking, but then you start to understand things about life, about the craft of acting. You approach it a different way. It’s much more fun now than it was, because you take more chances and risks. I enjoy acting now more than when I was young.
- The experience of using a Rolleiflex camera is very different than using a SLR.
