Tom Hanks Quotes

Some people are cowards... I think by and large a third of people are villains, a third are cowards, and a third are heroes. Now, a villain and a coward can choose to be a hero, but they’ve got to make that choice Picture Quote #1

And I’m not apolitical - I’m very specific in my politics. But a lot of the time it’s nobody’s business unless you’re over at my house having dinner Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day it’s got to be a good movie, it’s got to be a funny movie, and it’s got to make people think, ‘Hey, I couldn’t have spent my time any better.’ Picture Quote #1

The only way you can truly control how you are seen is by being honest all the time Picture Quote #1

It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together... and I knew it Picture Quote #1

I know what I have to do now, I’ve got to keep breathing because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring? Picture Quote #1

Never give up because you never know what the tide will bring in the next day Picture Quote #1

You have to adhere to a philosophy that the life unexamined is not worth living, because otherwise you’re just living from day to day and you don’t have any real sense of yourself or where you are Picture Quote #1

I’m lucky enough to be able to make only movies I’m interested in seeing. That has to be an instinctive thrust. The audience knows when you’re faking it. They can hang any kind of moniker they want on me Picture Quote #1

We are still in the position of waking up and having a choice. Do I make the world better today somehow, or do I not bother? Picture Quote #1

Human beings do things for a reason, even if sometimes it’s the wrong reason Picture Quote #1

I love what I do for a living, it’s the greatest job in the world, but you have to survive an awful lot of attention that you don’t truly deserve and you have to live up to your professional responsibilities and I’m always trying to balance that with what is really important Picture Quote #1

As a young man, even if I was going to see a play or a film by myself, I didn’t feel like I was alone. There was something that was unfolding up there that brought me into it. And I recognised that. For those two hours, it made me feel like I belonged to something really good Picture Quote #1

I do not want to admit to the world that I can be a bad person. It is just that I don’t want anyone to have false expectations. Moviemaking is a harsh, volatile business, and unless you can be ruthless, too, there’s a good chance that you are going to disappear off the scene pretty quickly Picture Quote #1

Now, learning how to make a movie is something you can figure out in about an afternoon. The physics of it, the marks, the lights, etc. What’s hard to do is to suspend your own feelings of self consciousness. The natural actors can do that; they can become part of a characterization and learn how to maintain it Picture Quote #1

Help, and you will make a huge impact in the life of the street, the town, the country and our planet. If only one out of four of each one hundred of you choose to help on any given day, in any given cause, incredible things will happen in the world you live in Picture Quote #1

I had to keep breathing. Even though there was no reason to hope... I stayed alive. I kept breathing. And one day my logic was proven all wrong because the tide came in, and gave me a sail. And now, here I am. I’m back... Because now I know what I have to do now. I have to keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring? Picture Quote #1

It's nice to finally get scripts offered to me that aren't the ones Tom Hanks wipes his butt with Picture Quote #1

When are we going to stop labeling everyone? How many times have I been referred to as ‘out gay actor?’ Do we say, ‘out heterosexual actor’ when we refer to Tom Hanks? Picture Quote #1

It’s like, once you’ve seen Tom Hanks win the Golden Globes, the Oscars, you’ve seen his wife, what kind of car he drives, when you watch his movies, you can’t fully get really lost in them Picture Quote #1

They [Tom Hanks and Paul Newman] were simply always high level masters, and taught me as a kid actor never to be an a*shole to anybody, because it would be very tough to get past where they are Picture Quote #1
