Keanu Reeves quotes about
teaching mean self
I mean really wonderful. In teaching. Personal epiphanies. About life. About different perspectives-help with different perspectives that you have. You know what I mean? Relationships to nature. Relationships with the self. With other people. With events.
suits mickey mice
I'm Mickey Mouse. They don't know who's inside the suit.
different mortality
Mortality is very different when you're 20 to when you're 50.
grief people gone
Grief changes shape, but it never ends. People have a misconception that you can deal with it and say, 'It's gone, and I'm better.' They're wrong.
goes-on demon muse
I attempt to connect with my muse and go on demon rides.
stories actors cameras
I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more.
jobs mean cameras
I was always interested - I mean, it's kind of part of your job - I was always interested in the camera.
experience about-yourself knows
I'm older and older. With any experience you have, you know more about yourself.
morning acting muse
It's hard to act in the morning. The muse isn't even awake.
live-your-life going-away months
Sometimes when you make a film you can go away for three months and then come back and live your life. But this struck a much deeper chord. I don't have the ability yet to speak about it in an objective.
zero thinking space
Oftentimes, when we think of 3D, we think of things coming out of the screen, but actually, you've got this zero, this negative space, what they call the negative space, which is the scene, what's being filmed in the positive space of the audience. As you can have things come out, you can have all of this depth.
beautiful dream scripts
And of course to work with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton, and work with a wonderful, beautiful script directed by Nancy Meyers, it was really for me a dream come true.
stress mean giving
Money doesn't mean anything to me. I've made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account. I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is much more important.
opportunity hands creative
I've had the opportunity to work with so many great directors. Different styles, as well, like Gus Van Sant. He just does the casting and the milieu and let's you do your thing, quietly. Bertolucci, who can talk to you about your internal world in quite a creative way or just say, 'Well, put your hand over here.'
