Academy Award-nominated American actor.
Leonardo DiCaprio
All I know is that when you make a movie it's something you have to live with forever. It's not a job I take lightly.
DiCaprio quotes
As an actor, you're constantly searching for that great character. Also, being a history buff and learning about people in our past and amazing things that they've done, I came across a book about Howard Hughes and he was set up as basically, the most multi-dimensional character I could ever come across. Often, people have tried to define him in biographies, but no one seems to be able to categorize him.
DiCaprio
I'm absolutely clean. I've never tried anything. That's not a lie!.




DiCaprio Leonardo quotes
On turning 30: "I kind of feel like the same person except more time has gone by. I hate to say that I feel like an adult now. I have to admit I wish I was still 18. After all, even through the time while I was representing that wild kid, I really wasn't. I was just living my life. I was just not making movies at the time.".
DiCaprio Leonardo
f you hear of any incident about me - a fight, a change of clothes, a little extra gel in the hair, don't believe it till you talk to me.
Leonardo DiCaprio quotes
"And I love doing what I'm doing and I'd get out of it if I hated it that much. I've said it many times before: There are much worse problems in the world, people dealing with things that are phenomenally more complicated."
Leonardo DiCaprio
On acting: "Don't think for a moment that I'm really like any of the characters I play. That's why it's called acting."
DiCaprio Leonardo quotes
"Being dubbed as a hunk sort of annoys me. It gives me a yucky feeling."
DiCaprio
'I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating.'
DiCaprio Leonardo
"You know, I worked with Leonardo when he was 18 [on the Western The Quick and the Dead]. He was a virgin, and he would talk about that constantly. So I'm hoping we have some time so he can fill in what's happened in between. Maybe show some photos. Because I'm sure life's different now."
Leonardo DiCaprio
"I was behind a woman at the checkout counter who was looking at the magazines. She turned to me and goes, 'There he is again, that Leonardo DiCaprio. Don't you wish he'd just disappear?' I said (to myself), this is the moment where I either go, 'Do you know who I am?' or put my hat further down, pay for my corn-nuts and get out of there....I choose to avoid that." (2005)




Leonardo DiCaprio quotes
"I figure lifes a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand your gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you.. to make each day count. "
Leonardo DiCaprio
"With those eyes and his intellect, I see no real limit to his potential."
DiCaprio quotes
I think it’s a real danger, as an actor, when you try to make some statement through your career about what the business should be doing or ultimately what your image should be or how you want to be perceived. I look at every project that comes along and say, “Is this something I can sink my teeth into and can do a good job on?” That’s really how I choose roles.
DiCaprio Leonardo
On rumors: I've heard some pretty bad rumors...that I'm gay. If I want to go to a party with a few male friends, it doesn't mean that I'm gay. I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without rumors being spread about me. It's crazy.
DiCaprio Leonardo quotes
'I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people (Romeo and Juliet) took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did.'
Leonardo DiCaprio
On whether there are any aspects of fame he dislikes: "You kidding? I feel very fortunate. A lot of people would love to be in my position. There are so many people out there who are suffering trillions of times more than I could ever suffer, and would love to be me. I am a lucky little bastard."
Leonardo DiCaprio quotes
Drugs? Every one has a choice and I choose not to do drugs.
Leonardo DiCaprio
On working with Martin Scorsese in Gangs of New York (2002): "He's a perfectionist, obsessed with detail. That's why he went over budget and over schedule."
DiCaprio Leonardo
I don't have emotions about a lot of things. I rarely get angry, I rarely cry. I guess I do get excited a lot, but I don't get sad and enormously happy.
