Thats the way this business works: if your movies do well at the box office, you will be offered more movies. It doesnt matter if youre a nice guy or youre a prick. If your movies do well, theres a job waiting for you in Hollywood. Its not any more complicated than that. – Matt Damon

Success is not something Ive wrapped my brain around. If people go to those movies, then yes, thats true, big-time success. If not, its much ado about nothing. – Matt Damon
I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: try being rich first. See if that doesnt cover most of it.
