Being dubbed as a hunk sort of annoys me. It gives me a yucky feeling.

- Leonardo Di Caprio
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'.

Drugs? Every one has a choice and I choose not to do drugs.

I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?

I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
I really don't know what I'm doing... I don't. It's terrible. I go in there and I learn how to be like the character and do the best I can, and that's all I really do.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
I want to be a jerk like the rest of my friends, and have fun, and not care about the consequences, but I just can't now.

I was always the kid in school who tried to get attention, not necessarily the class clown, but I'd do little unexpected performances.

I'm not the kind of person who tries to be cool or trendy, I'm definitely an individual.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people (Romeo and Juliet) took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did.

- Leonardo Di Caprio
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.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
I've managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
I've never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately. It's been a much slower process for me each time I've gone into a relationship.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
If I want to go to a party with a few male friends, it doesn't mean I'm gay.

- Leonardo Di Caprio
Meryl Streep does things I would never have thought possible... Her presence on screen is outstanding.

My career should adapt to me. Fame is like a VIP pass wherever you want to go.

- Leonardo Di Caprio
My mother is a walking miracle.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
School, I never truly got the knack of. I could never focus on things I didn't want to learn.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
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.

The first kiss I had was the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away I had to spit it all out.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
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 Di Caprio
The role of Rimbaud is one of the most important roles to play for a young actor.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
To believe in love, to be ready to give up anything for it, to be willing to risk your life for it, is the ultimate tragedy.

When a role for a young guy is being offered to me, I think of River Phoenix. It feels like a loss.
- Leonardo Di Caprio
