Al Pacino Character Quotations

It would be hard to play a character you don't like - for me anyway - or can't find something in them to like.

Playing a character is an illusion, and I feel that when you know too much about a person, possibly part of that illusion is disrupted.

I do believe, and I will always believe, that Shakespeare on film is really something that should be tried more often because it is an opportunity to take the humanity that Shakespeare writes into characters and express it.

Responsibilities are relative. My responsibility is to a character in a script, to a part I'm playing.

I don't regret anything. I feel like I've made what I would call mistakes. I picked the wrong movie, or I didn't pursue a character, but everything you do is part of you and you get something from it.
