I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

If I were a serious person, I'd probably have a real job.

My goal was just to work regularly. I didn't ever expect to be rich or famous. I wanted to be a working character actor.

I'm not a poster boy for Conservation International. I'm a working member of the board.

Some actors couldn't figure out how to withstand the constant rejection. They couldn't see the light at the end of the tunnel.

My character is meant to know nothing about rap, and not to like it very much, but I know about it, because my kids make me listen to it. There's some rap I do like very much. I like Eminem, Blackalicious.

I am in show business. I don't, for a minute, ever forget that this is a business that I'm involved in, and it plays by business' rules.

I love the comic opportunities that come up in the context of a father-son relationship.

I think of myself as an assistant storyteller.
Harrison Ford -
Really, what are the options? Levi's or Wranglers. And you just pick one. It's one of those life choices.

It doesn't interest me to be Harrison Ford. It interests me to be Mike Pomeroy and Indiana Jones and Jack Ryan. I don't want to be in the Harrison Ford business. I take what I do seriously, but I don't take myself seriously.
Harrison Ford -
All my friends were going off to be professionals, and I said I wanted to be an actor.
Harrison Ford -
The best movies are made from a point of view of an understanding of human nature and an understanding of history and an understanding of what motivates people, of what makes a good movie from an emotional place.
Harrison Ford -
I don't think I have something that's pronounceable as a philosophy. … When it was fashionable to say, 'May the Force be with you,' I always said, 'Force yourself.' … I'll say again then, 'The Force is within you. Force yourself.'

I wouldn't be doing this interview if I didn't like you.

I was desperately unhappy with it Blade Runner. I was compelled by contract to record five or six different versions of the narration, each of which was found wanting on a storytelling basis. The final version was something that I was completely unhappy with. The movie obviously has a very strong following, but it could have been more than a cult picture.

Our health relies entirely on the vitality of our fellow species on Earth.

I played maybe one and a half games of Little League. The whole atmosphere of anxious parents and more anxious children was just too much for me.

There is no barrier to Indiana Jones growing older. It's not an age-based character. We can't bang him up as much as we used to, maybe. But I guess I can pretend to have the capacity as well as I pretended before.
Harrison Ford -
I prefer to be part of a positive statement. I'm not interested in the psyche of a serial killer. What I'm interested in is creating a situation in which people get some emotional exercise, which makes them feel like human beings and makes them understand that they are part of the human community with all its responsibilities.

Henry: Well I'm sorry about your head though, but I thought you were one of them. Indiana: Dad, they come in through the doors.
Harrison Ford -
I thought it was funny. I always thought Star Wars and Indiana Jones were basically comedies. The humour came out of their relationships; it came out of the fact that we were basically types.

It's a wonderful opportunity to be part of a child's growing up, which is always an endless springtime. You see the blossoming and the growing and the nurturing and the payoff.

An icon means nothing to me. I don't understand what it means to anybody actually. It seems like a word of convenience. It seems to attend to the huge success of certain kinds of movies that I did, but there's no personal utility in being an icon. I don't know what an icon does, except stand in a corner quietly accepting everyone's attention. I like to work, so there's no utility in being an icon.
