“Money is another pressure. I'm not complaining I'm just saying that there's a certain luxury in having no money. I spent ten years in New York not having it not worrying about it. Suddenly you have it then you worry where is it going? Am I doing the right thing with it?”
Dustin Hoffman“One thing about being successful is that I stopped being afraid of dying. Once you're a star you're dead already. You're embalmed.”

Dustin Hoffman“The varying physical characteristics of the actors may also necessitate changes. Sean Connery is six feet four. Dustin Hoffman isn't.”
Sidney Lumet, Making Movies“I keep trying to explain to people that the archetype of intelligence is not Dustin Hoffman in 'The Rain Man;' it is a human being, period. It is squishy things that explode in a vacuum, leaving footprints on their moon.”
Eliezer Yudkowsky“I'm not an Adonis, that's for damn sure. I've never really thought of myself that way, and it doesn't matter to me. My favorite actors aren't Adonises. Dustin Hoffman is a flawed-looking man; he's amazing to me. Tom Hanks is flawed-looking; people love him. Same with Gene Hackman.”
Shia LaBeouf“My nursery school did a production of 'The Three Little Pigs.' I played the third pig. When the wolf knocked on my door, I refused to get up and answer it because, to me, he was knocking the wrong way. I just lay there, snoring away on stage, fully immersed in my character. My dad turned to my mom and said: 'Dustin Hoffman.'”
