Top 10 Brad Pitt Quotes

  1. I think happiness is overrated. Satisfied, at peace-those would be more realistic goals.
  2. You must lose everything in order to gain anything.
  3. In Missouri, where I come from, we don't talk about what we do - we just do it. If we talk about it, it's seen as bragging.
  4. I would love to work in a Bollywood film as there is so much drama and colour in the films there.
  5. Man, when I'm riding with the helmet on, I'm invisible. And people just deal with me as the guy on the bike... it gives you a chance to read 'em.
  6. Gay marriage is inevitable. The next generation, they get it. It is just a matter of time before it becomes a reality.
  7. The things you own end up owning you.
  8. I'm probably 20 percent atheist and 80 percent agnostic. I don't think anyone really knows. You'll either find out or not when you get there, until then there's no point thinking about it.
  9. Do you know how you tell real love? It's when someone else's interest trumps your own.
  10. I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it's up to me.

What occurred to me on [‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’], and also with the passing of her mother, is that there's going to come a time when I'm not going to get to be with this person anymore.

Crime is just unvarnished capitalism, after all. — Brad Pitt

I'm a grown man who puts on makeup. — Brad Pitt
