The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Richard Jenkins
- But I loved making ‘Eat Pray Love,’ and I loved working with Julia Roberts.
- We all have movies for times in our lives when we really need something.
- When there is tension, arguments and money problems, it’s tough to do your work. Some people thrive on that. I don’t.
- I love it when a director says, ‘I don’t know.’
- I like not knowing what’s around the corner. It’s always been that way, and maybe that’s one of the reasons why I’m an actor.
- I like relaxed sets. I like to feel that I can make a mistake without feeling like I’m costing somebody money. I like a sense of freedom. I like it when people are open and are willing to let you do your work.
- I was an only child, and I spent a lot of time alone. My dad was an only child, too, so we didn’t have a big family, and I was really close with both of my parents. Like any kid, I thought I knew more than they did.
- ‘My character wouldn’t do that.’ That was always my favorite thing people say: ‘My character wouldn’t do that.’ I said, ‘Well, it says right here in this script your character does that.’
- There’s a lot of jobs that you can do that you can be miserable at. Making movies should not be one of them.
- When I go to the movies, I want to see a human being dealing with their lives. That’s all I ask.
