I walked into the room and I was laughing at myself - who am I, where I'm from, and now I'm going in and sitting here having this huge meeting. And there's the pope sitting there in a chair with a chair next to him and I am to sit in it. (Agre Peter)
Mel Gibson didn't hire me because I was a believer; he was quoted as saying he saw The Thin Red Line and wanted me after that. (Agre Peter)
It does feel like the end this time. You learn so much about success, money and celebrity. It's been an incredible life lesson. (Agre Peter)
I think there's a place Tony knows that if he goes to, he's not coming back, and that's the place. If you start killing family members, what's next? (Agre Peter)
Celebrity - I don't even know what that means. Obviously it's the same basic word as celebration, but I don't know what's being celebrated. (Agre Peter)
I could definitely relate to [ Almost Famous character] Jeff Bebe. I care about acting. I care about the work. Jeff Bebe cares about the music everything else can go to hell. (Agre Peter)
I'm certainly not Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt. (Agre Peter)
I'm impressed with the likes of Jet Li and Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee was a big hero of mine for many years. They're great influences. (Agre Peter)
I was just thinking of James Dean and Marilyn Monroe and how young they were when they died. I would like to be a pop icon who survives. I would like to be a living icon. (Agre Peter)
He and Marlon Brando and Montgomery Clift the three of them represented a new age in acting. Acting entered a kind of realism [in the mid-'50s] that was exploring depth of emotion for males, and a reality that was more accurate. (Agre Peter)
I pretty much try to stay in a constant state of confusion just because of the expression it leaves on my face. (Agre Peter)
Michael Jackson was not a sort of ingredient or an inspiration for the character at all. (Agre Peter)
[Brando (] Bless him, ... I said I don't know, sometimes two, sometimes three. (Agre Peter)
I've been pleased to work with so many wonderful stars through the years. This has been an amazing journey. I hope it continues. (Agre Peter)
Ninety-five percent of celebrity is good. (Agre Peter)
They wanted to do a movie about the Backstreet Boys. (Agre Peter)
Clint Eastwood's a good friend, too - he and I used to play in softball games together. (Agre Peter)
I liked everything I read about Braddock, ... I liked who he was before he was a champion, who he was when he was a champion and who he was afterwards, too. I liked the fact that his otherwise very simple life had this incredible zeitgeist flair in the middle of it and afterwards he just kept working, bringing up his children and loving his wife. For me, it's the story of how one family survived the Depression. Braddock died in 1974 in the same house that he had bought in 1935 with his winnings from the world championship and where he had seen his kids grow up and his grandchildren born. (Agre Peter)
I don't use my celebrity to make a living. I don't do ads for suits in Spain like George Clooney or cigarettes in Japan like Harrison Ford . To me, it is kind of sacrilegious. It's a complete contradiction of the social contract you have with your audience. I mean, Robert De Niro advertising American Express. Gee whiz, it's not the first time he's disappointed me. It's been happening for a while. (Agre Peter)
Meg Ryan is a beautiful and courageous woman. I grieve the loss of her companionship but I've not lost the friendship. We talk all the time and that was what our connection was about. She has a wonderful mind and we just like a chat. (Agre Peter)
When Kerry saw the film, he couldn't stop crying for about five or six minutes (Agre Peter)
