Guy Pearce's quotes

  • You meet these people who are confident all the time. They annoy me. And I wonder if it's because I'm envious or if it's because they're shallow.
  • Well, if you'd like to get technical, I'm English, and Russell's from New Zealand. [when asked about the studio's reluctance to hire "two Australians" for roles in American period piece L.A. Confidential (1997)]
  • A lot of people are going to hate me for saying this, but one of my least favorite kinds of music, or the kind of music that I feel I've so got out of my system, is musicals music.
  • I love being at home in Melbourne, reading scripts, doing the gardening and running around after my wife.
  • I don't want to be a celebrity. The little amount that I've had in the past - it was fun going into it. But once you realize you're in, you realize you don't actually want to be in it anymore.
  • I don't act because I'm some supremely confident being. I don't want to be that guy. There are leading men who tell producers, 'I do my thing. Do you want me or not in your movie?' I still see acting as getting into character.
  • [2007, on not wanting children] I don't even need them. There are enough babies in the world. Besides, I don't think I would be good for babies. I'd be on and off. I think they need more consistent affection than I would be able to give.
  • [on starring in Neighbours (1985)] It can do something for one's ego, good and bad, to have teenage girls chasing after you, trying to rip your clothes off and offer you sexual favors.
  • [2002] I look at my two cats and I can see myself evenly distributed between them. One is quite insecure. Needing constant attention. Very fragile. The other is a real arrogant shit. Of course they piss each other off continually.
  • [2000] I'm more than happy to do little independent films for the rest of my life. Interesting and unusual films, because I really get off on doing it and I feel much more confident in that sort of surrounding.
  • [1997] I was a small, skinny guy and had a lot of insecurities about my body, so I got into weight training when I was young. I won the Junior Mr. Victoria bodybuilding competition when I was 15, which is a really odd claim to fame.
  • [on playing roles with a different accent] I don't look at it as hiding my accent, I look at it as putting on another accent.
