Matt Damon On Details Magazine

On being selective with his roles:
"I want the kind of career robert duvall has. i don't feel [that] chasing movies like this is going to lead to a 40-year career. i'd rather be broke."

On the hollywood limelight:
"I've worked very hard in interviews to portray a very polite and boring person. i'm actively trying to get away from the overexposure that happened eight years ago."

On interviews:
"The only thing a celebrity can do in one of these articles is hurt their own career. if i give you a really good interview, am i going to get a movie out of it? f--k no! so what's the argument for saying anything, unless you have this rampaging need to please?"
