Joel Edgerton Great Quotations

What makes a really great fighter is a combination of ingredients: one is everything physical that you can do, and the other is what's mentally there for you. And I think that comes down to how big your heart is and what's driving you.

One of the great joys of being able to write something you can make, if you get certain actors you want and love, you're kind of buying yourself a front row seat to watch them work.

I'm a great believer in not sitting around waiting for the right part to come around, but jumping in and building it for yourself.

I think it's great to be able to go and watch a short film before you watch a feature.

I think the great thing about religion is it's there to teach us the good path and that we're all equal, that we should be treated as such.

I think the great thing about characters is the ways that they can be surprising. I mean, sometimes you think you've got a lock on a personality, even just in life, and then they'll shock you by their behavior.

My whole journey and career has been really interesting, but the one element it never really had was any sense of great momentum.

I learned a great lesson early on, even before I was really an actor, from that movie 'Planes, Trains & Automobiles' that John Hughes made: that you could make a movie that's really, really, really, really funny, and sometimes you can still achieve... making the audience feel very deep emotions as well.
