I was the only white kid in my neighborhood for most of my youth even in high school, so reverse racism was just as apparent as racism. - Shia LaBeouf
I would like to be George Clooney diplomatic. I just don't have the wherewithal yet or the inner serenity. - Shia LaBeouf
I'd love to go to school and have a normal life, but I don't see any professor at Yale being able to teach me more than Steven Spielberg. - Shia LaBeouf
I'm a call-sheet junkie. I love being on set. So, the hardest thing for me is dealing with all this idle time. That's when I get into trouble. - Shia LaBeouf
I'm not a celebrity, I've kind of been under the radar, has kept it easier for me to maintain a career. - Shia LaBeouf
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
I'm Richie Rich. I land in New York, secretly thinking I'm like the coolest guy in the world. - Shia LaBeouf
I've been in fights, but that doesn't make me cool or like a tough guy or more interesting actor, I'm not proud of it. - Shia LaBeouf
If I had more recreation time I would be able to step back and reflect on how life has changed. But it has been like a constant... boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! - Shia LaBeouf

If you asked an 18-year-old what they want to do with their life, and the options are 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he's probably shipping out for 'Transformers.' If you ask a 26-year-old what he wants to do, 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he'd probably pick Lars von Trier. So, my sensibilities are changing as I change. - Shia LaBeouf
If you're trying to learn how to act from a class, you're analyzing the teachers' movements and their intricacies, and it becomes like a pantomime of you wanting to be them, and that's wrong. Literature is an easier way to study acting, because then you can take any kind of spin. It's your own imagination, and your own version of it. - Shia LaBeouf
It's really easy to fall for someone on-set, but in the end you know, it's a representative and it's not really them. - Shia LaBeouf
Look, you're on the set for six months, with someone who's rooting to be attracted to you, and you're rooting to be attracted to them. I never understood the separation of work and life in that situation. But the time I spent with Megan was our own thing. - Shia LaBeouf
