Кэри Грант цитаты

Кэри Грант — англо-американский актёр, дважды номинант на премию «Оскар».

На протяжении своей жизни Грант был воплощением неизменного остроумия, невозмутимости и хладнокровия. Понятие «стильно одетый мужчина» и «джентльмен» было неотделимо от него, а сильнейший натуральный загар, которым Грант обладал, поражал глаз. Невзирая на чисто маскулинную натуру и статус одного из самых красивых мужчин всех времён, всю жизнь Гранта не утихали слухи о его бисексуальности.

Свои самые известные роли сыграл в бурлескных комедиях, особенно довоенных, и на склоне лет, в фильмах Альфреда Хичкока. Американский институт киноискусства признал его величайшим киноактёром в истории после Хамфри Богарта.

Кэри Грант: Цитаты на английском языке

“Now I know how it can change, just like that. They can be applauding you one moment, and booing you the next. The thing to know is that you have done a good job, then it doesn’t hurt to be criticized.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)
Контексте: I used to hide behind the façade that was Cary Grant … I didn’t know if I were Archie Leach, or Cary Grant, and I wasn’t taking any chances. … Another thing I had to cure myself of was the desire for adulation, and the approbation of my fellow man. It started when I was a small boy and played football at school. If I did well they cheered me. If I fumbled I was booed. It became very important to me to be liked. It’s the same in the theater, the applause and the laughter give you courage and the excitement to go on. I thought it was absolutely necessary in order to be happy. Now I know how it can change, just like that. They can be applauding you one moment, and booing you the next. The thing to know is that you have done a good job, then it doesn’t hurt to be criticized. My press agent was very indignant over something written about me not too long ago. “Look,” I told him. “I’ve known this character for many years, and the faults he sees in me are really the faults in himself that he hates.”

“Do not blame others for your own mistakes. … YOU are Mother Nature.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)
Контексте: Do not blame others for your own mistakes. … YOU are Mother Nature. You have the power within you to be thin or fat, as you desire. … God is within you, and you can do and have anything you want. You must love yourself more. … and then … you can love your fellow man.

“Don’t go to extremes. Don’t hate too much and don’t love too much. Try to live somewhere in the middle.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)
Контексте: Don’t go to extremes. Don’t hate too much and don’t love too much. Try to live somewhere in the middle. Hate destroys the hater. And if you love too much you get too involved and you cannot see too clearly. Love and hate are like night and day. They do exist together and you must accept them both, but you must also understand them and be in control of both emotions. It is peaceful in the middle. You won’t be hurt in the middle.

“Also, people seek targets for whatever hurts them, especially their own lack of success. Personally, I regard every knock as a boost.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)
Контексте: It always amazes me that those who fight for the luxuries of life, are the first to resent those who have them. Also, people seek targets for whatever hurts them, especially their own lack of success. Personally, I regard every knock as a boost.

“God is within you, and you can do and have anything you want. You must love yourself more. … and then … you can love your fellow man.”

“I never dwell on past mistakes… There is too much to plan for the future to waste time complaining.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)
Контексте: I never dwell on past mistakes… There is too much to plan for the future to waste time complaining.  Elsie Mendl was a great friend of mine for many, many years. And I remember the creed by which she lived: Never complain, never explain. Just think of the people you know who are always explaining their mistakes. It merely rubs the whole thing in. You’re reminded again of the mistake. And no one believes the explanation anyway.

“Another thing I had to cure myself of was the desire for adulation, and the approbation of my fellow man.”

“My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can.”

“When I’m married I want to be single, and when I’m single I want to be married.”

Love – That’s All Cary Grant Ever Thinks About (1964)

“I really am a happy, amusing fellow at heart. Trouble is I seem the only one left.”

As quoted in "Cary Grant is puzzled because you have No Time for Laughs" by Robert Ottaway in Picturegoer magazine (4 January 1958)

“I suppose you might call me the sophisticated type. I like to act with dialogue. Not with grunts.”

“I often think my life has been a failure. But whenever I drop into a theater and hear women laugh at one of my films, I think, well, if I brightened their day before they went home and did the dishes, maybe my life wasn't wasted, after all.”
