You always hear people say that having kids changes everything, but you can't fully realize it until you have children yourself.
Jeff Bridges -
Do we really need to arm our citizens with machine guns or semiautomatic weapons? And don't we need to make sure that people who do own guns are qualified to own them?

For me and my wife, it was love at first sight.
Jeff Bridges -
Life is having its way with me now. And I'm really pleased.
Jeff Bridges -
I'm drawn to the path of least resistance.
Jeff Bridges -
It's wrong to rob banks, yeah, but is it right for banks to loan people money, knowing full well they can't pay it back?
Jeff Bridges -
I don't think I ever went down that movie star path. I always enjoy taking a 90-degree turn from the last thing I did.
Jeff Bridges -
I first got involved with ending world hunger, and I got hip to the facts about it - what a huge problem it was and how it wasn't a matter of not having food or not knowing how to end it, but it was a matter of creating the political will.

I haven't been to Comic-Con.
Jeff Bridges -
As filmmakers, we're constantly always looking for something to bring the audience deeper into the reality of the story we're telling.
Jeff Bridges -
Ballet might be too formal of a title for the type of dance I do, but I love to dance. I love to draw and paint; I do ceramics and photography. I'm interested in a lot of creative stuff.
Jeff Bridges -
I think we're all hooked, I feel my own hook-ness on immediate gratification you know. I want what I want.
Jeff Bridges -
It's the same assignment on every part: you want to create a real world, and the tone of it is a little different on each movie. You have to find your tone and work within that to make it as real so the audience can really engage in the story you're telling.
Jeff Bridges -
You have these big $200 and $300 million movies with special effects, and I've always thought, 'Gee, why don't we make 30 movies instead of one $300 million movie?' Let's shake it up a bit; wouldn't that be a better bet? Evidently not.

Loving movies myself, I know when I see a film with someone with a strong persona, it's hard to overlay another character on top of that.
Jeff Bridges -
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life. I really had a cool foundation.
Jeff Bridges -
Often when I finish a film I'll have that feeling inside me: 'I never want to do this ever again. I don't want to pretend anymore. I want to be myself and do that.' And then, thank God, that feeling goes away after a month or so and I'm raring to go again.
Jeff Bridges -
I've had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I've been very lucky that way.
Jeff Bridges -
Just getting something in the books that makes sure people with mental illness and terrorists can't get guns would be a good idea.
Jeff Bridges -
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.

Women are so - maybe this is just a male perspective, but for my money, they're so connected to life in a way that men aren't. They're able to give birth, have children, and it's literally a part of them. They perhaps have a stronger capacity for caring than males.
Jeff Bridges -
Like most kids, you don't want to do what your folks want you to do. You've got your own thing.
Jeff Bridges -
Sometimes I think about retiring but not stopping work. Just 're-tiring' - put on some new tires and go on to do something else.
Jeff Bridges -
Sometimes I think of movie acting as advanced pretend.
