Quotes from Brad:

"Being married means I can [pass gas] and eat ice cream in bed." 

"Heartthrobs are a dime a dozen."

"You have to get in the right mood for that, of course. For example, it doesn't do harm if you get yourself into a bit of a wild mood - if you understand what I mean. Except for that, for those scenes, I can fall back on 34 years of experience of life."
- on love scenes

"I don't care about the question if I'm beautiful, it doesn't help. I have no objections to my body, but all that hysteria about it gets on my nerves."
- on having good looks

"There are painkillers for this, Band-Aids for that but the bottom line is there are tough times and good times. I wouldn't trade any of the rotten times. They're vital for defining who you are."

"Believe me, I'd rather get paid... They can't make coffee to save their lives, but the tea's alright."
- on filming Snatch in London

"We find photographers in the bushes. They've just got to get that picture of us picking our noses and scratching our sweaty cracks."
- on paparazzi chasing Jennifer Aniston and him

"Traffic is this great forum because you can yell at somebody and somebody can yell back and you can get something out."

"I suppose in some way it's indecent, since we're not solving cancer or saving lives, but it's a huge industry. They make tons and tons of money, and they lose tons and tons of money. It's like betting on horses, but I'm glad they're giving me some."
- on his pay

Quotes on Brad:

"And weird things happened to him. Spirits would throw him out of bed and no one believed him."
Kirsten Dunst on the things that happened to Brad Pitt during the filming of Interview with the Vampire

"Next to that kid, we all look like onions."
Dustin Hoffman

"A lot of time, I didn't really understand what he was saying. He speaks in this street voice. I think it's his own Brad language."
Helena Bonham Carter (Brad Pitt's co-star in Fight Club) on the English of Brad Pitt

"I never realised I looked like a troll on screen before Shaft. It never occurred to me that I was this ugly guy."
Samuel L. Jackson on why he is no threat to Brad Pitt

"Brad is the nicest guy in the world, and he's not acting. I wish I had that. I have a great time watching him. When Brad does takes, even when David would ask him to do 30 of them, he always throws something in and improvises. The reason I think he's such a big star is he's always truthful and so real that it sucks you in."
Jared Leto 

"There was no cheating on anyone's part in our relationship. Brad never did anything wrong. There's no sweeter, kinder, nicer man in the world. He didn't deserve all those rumors that bombarded him after our break-up".
Gwyneth Paltrow on the end of their relationship

"Under the druggie diction, beneath the bale of bleached-blond hair, Pitt is murderously handsome. As tall and lean as a deer rifle, he has a way of looking at you out of the corner of his Popsicle-blue eyes, a way of touching his chest while he formulates his non-answers, a way of suddenly grinning through his cigarette smoke. It's an effortlessness, a glorious nonchalance. It's ridiculously appealing."
Johanna Schneller, Vanity Fair magazine 

"That scene was the one where I was, like, 'Oh man, can we get him to this?' He really lost it emotionally. He'd be over smoking a cigarette between takes, and then we'd roll, and it was like, 'Oh my God, we gotta stop! This poor guy'."
David Fincher, director of Seven on Pitt's final scene in the movie

"He drinks coffee and smokes cigarettes and eats whatever he wants and he's like, leaner than everybody around. You know what? This is the kind of thing, I think, he's just got that glint in his eye while we're doing this one, and it's a really funny character, and we're having a blast."
Edward Norton, Brad Pitt's co-star in Fight Club
