Guy Pearce Quotes

There’s a sense of humor within the Australian culture that prevails when one is in a rather difficult situation Picture Quote #1

I feel I do my best work when it’s all there on the page, and I feel that the character is very vivid as I read the script and I’m not having to create stuff and trying to cobble together something. If I have to do that, then I don’t entirely trust what I’m doing Picture Quote #1

I wish I had the ability to crack wise, generally. You know, without getting punched. There’s no way I could do it while getting beaten up. Definitely Picture Quote #1

Just because there are things I don’t remember, doesn’t mean my actions are meaningless. The whole world doesn’t just disappear when you close your eyes, does it? Picture Quote #1

I really enjoy doing things that are more subtle and close to home - and literally close to home Picture Quote #1

I don’t understand the actor who plays the same role from movie to movie. Maybe it’s because I worked on long-running television when I was in my teens, and so the idea of playing the same role just bores me intensely. I’d rather not do it at all Picture Quote #1

I used to work out in the gym a lot when I was younger. I was a competition body builder when I was 16 or something crazy like that for a short period of time. So, the gym is quite familiar and I know what I’m doing there Picture Quote #1

I always think the really unfortunate thing about the Australian film industry is its lack of momentum. And I don’t mean this in a derogatory way. I’m always wanting it to pick up momentum, and I’m wondering if that’s even possible Picture Quote #1

The reality is that we have all these awards and all these festivals that give out awards, so you sort of go, ‘okay, well, people liked the film, and I think it’s a good film, and it’s up for an award - well, I guess it should win the award then.’ Picture Quote #1

A movie that gets a PG-13 rating can show someone running down a street killing 27 people. And there are no repercussions Picture Quote #1

Funny enough, if you are looking at people these days who are putting Botox in their face and getting all sorts of plastic surgery, we look at them and go, I can tell you’ve had Botox. I can tell you’ve had plastic surgery. You look really strange to me. But no one’s saying anything. We’re just accepting the fact that they’re strange-looking Picture Quote #1

I always look at films as real stories with real people in real situations. That’s why I struggle with the whole notion of calling someone the ‘good guy’ or the ‘bad guy,’ because I think we all have potential to do good things and all have the potential to do bad things Picture Quote #1

I grew up with such an affinity to cats. I adore the way that they think and operate Picture Quote #1

I grew up doing musicals. I’ve done so many musicals in my life, I kind of got them out of my system. But, I certainly would be open to them. Rocky Horror Show is a big favorite of mine Picture Quote #1
