When it comes to social consequences, they've got all different people acting in different ways, very difficult to even have a proper criterion of success. So, it's a difficult task.

Don't think for a moment that I'm really like any of the characters I've played. I'm not. That's why it's called 'acting'.
Leonardo DiCaprio

Now my drug is writing or acting, being creative.
Scott Caan

I'm just starting to scratch the surface of what really makes me happy and it's taken me a while to admit that acting like a little child and being a jerk and a punk is fun.
Leonardo DiCaprio

The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it... It's a great outlet. I'm not really sure who I am - it seems I change every day.
Leonardo DiCaprio

The good thing about acting is that it always keeps you on your toes... It's not like any other job where you can go in and do the same thing as yesterday.
Leonardo DiCaprio

I've been planted here to be a vessel for acting... That's why I'm really taking any part, regardless of how complicated it's going to be.

I don't know what acting is, but I enjoy it.
Anthony Hopkins
