The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Philip Seymour Hoffman
- The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you’re uncool.
- Don’t let people treat you like a cigarette, they only use you when they’re bored and step on you when they’re done. Be like drugs, let them die for you.
- If you’re a human being walking the earth, you’re weird, you’re strange, you’re psychologically challenged.
- Study, find all the good teachers and study with them, get involved in acting to act, not to be famous or for the money. Do plays. It’s not worth it if you are just in it for the money. You have to love it.
- I didn’t go out looking for negative characters; I went out looking for people who have a struggle and a fight to tackle. That’s what interests me.
- I think you should be serious about what you do because this is it. This is the only life you’ve got.
- There’s something in the very small minutia of life that tells us something about the big, big picture that we see every day all over the place, and so I think the more specific and creative and revelatory you are in the micro, the more powerful the macro will be.
- Life is short. Time is short. As we get older, time does quicken. It’s long, and it’s long pertaining to that thought, that the past is not done with you because you can’t rid of it.
- I’m probably more personal when I’m acting than at any other time. More open, more direct. Because it allows me to be something that I can’t always feel comfortable with when I’m living my own life, you know? Because it’s make-believe.
- Actors are responsible to the people we play. I don’t label or judge. I just play them as honestly and expressively and creatively as I can.
