I never followed baseball very much. As a kid, I never followed sports.
Harrison Ford -
I think that the best movies are made, not from a point of view that depends on your personal history, whether it's the color of your skin or the politics that you had or the place that you come from, but from a point of view of an understanding of human nature, an understanding of history, and an understanding of what motivates people.

I think American films right now are suffering from an excess of scale. Lots of movies we're seeing now are more akin to video games than stories about human life and relationships. Twelve- to 20-year-olds are maybe the largest economic force in the US movie business. I'm not a very nostalgic person - but I enjoy a good story.

You have to have a darkness...for the dawn to come. You have to have experienced difficulties and challenges to fully appreciate and be grateful for success.
Harrison Ford -
You always have to know what the ambition of the scene is, what the purpose of that scene is in the telling of the story overall, so that you're there to support the story.

My ambition from the very beginning was to make a good part for myself, something differently to what lately I've been doing.
Harrison Ford -
All I would tell people is to hold onto what was individual about themselves, not to allow their ambition for success to cause them to try to imitate the success of others. You've got to find it on your own terms.

I don't want to be a movie star. I want to be in movies that are stars.
Harrison Ford -
I found out that drama was a fascinating exercise as a way to get out of my self and into somebody else's head.
Harrison Ford -
I am my age. I'm not making any effort to change it.
Harrison Ford -
It doesn't matter to me whether I go back to outer space or not. The job's the same and I don't have any sort of genre preferences. I'm looking for a good story and a good character, whether earthbound or not.
Harrison Ford -
I just don't think of age and time in respect of years. I have too much experience of people in their seventies who are vigorous and useful and people who are thirty-five who are in lousy physical shape and can't think straight. I don't think age has that much to do with it.
Harrison Ford -
My work has always been important to me. The reason I continue to do it is because it's so much fun for me. I love my work and so that's what keeps me in the game.

It's time to change the conversation about nature to focus on what we all have in common: our shared humanity.
Harrison Ford -
Baseball was a metaphor for America, both here and in terms of how it was understood by the rest of the world.
Harrison Ford -
I do not go to the gym. I do not train. I am not that careful about what I eat. I cannot give you any advice about keeping fit. The best advice I can give is choose your parents wisely.
Harrison Ford -
Behind every great man is a woman. Telling him he's not so hot.
Harrison Ford -
An actor only has his own understanding and experience to work with.
Harrison Ford -
The only thing hard about being an actor is being out of work. So, when you get a job - that part ain't hard at all.

I don't think nostalgia is very useful to me. There is a story to be told, there's behaviour to create or to bring to the screen that will help tell that story, and nostalgia is just not really a big part of my emotional package.
Harrison Ford -
I came across the script 42, and I read it, and I said, "I really want to do this." And when I had my agent call, they said, ah, you know, it's not what they're looking for. So, OK. And then I let it go for a while, and then it just kept gnawing at me, so I kept pushing.
Harrison Ford -
That's always my ambition is to create a character out of what will help tell the story. I've never been an actor to say my character wouldn't do that, because he should do that in order to help tell the story.
