“I don’t pretend to be captain weird. I just do what I do.” - Johnny Depp

What would he do if he won the Oscar?
“I’ll probably be a very, very old man. I’ll take some Geritol and head off to bed.”
“One of the greatest pieces of advice that I’ve ever gotten in my life was from my mom. You know, when I was a little kid, there was a kid who was bugging me at school and she said “Okay, I’m gonna tell you what to do.” She said, “The kid’s bugging you. If he puts his hands on you, you pick up the nearest rock, or whatever you can get your hands on, and you lay him out.” And I did it, and I felt better. And it worked. So, for me that was a great lesson because someone had invaded my space, invaded my being, you know, and was doing something against me that I didn’t want to be done, so I took control of the situation and I ran with it. And many years later, after being turned into a product by a very huge corporation that had their hands all over me, and I couldn’t escape it, I promised myself that I would continue to move forward, and do my best not to compromise in any way whatsoever - not allow anyone to put their hands on me and affect me in that way. So, that’s the best advice I think I can give is just to keep moving forward and don’t give a shit what anybody thinks, you know. Just keep moving forward and do what you have to do for you.” - Johnny Depp (Best advice. I ever heard)

Music has always been my first love. I use music in my work because it’s the fastest way to an emotional place. You hear a song, and that memory comes right back you’re there. Johnny Depp

When I met Vanessa, I was still drifting. But being with her has just blown me away and made me a better man. Ten years ago I never would have believed in the kind of life I have now as a father, although I still wonder if it’s OK to be this happy.

“I pretty much fell in love with Vanessa the moment I set eyes on her. As a person, I was pretty much a lost cause at that point of my life. She turned all that around for me with her incredible tenderness and understanding. Very quickly, I realized I couldn’t live without her. She made me feel like a real human being instead of someone Hollywood had manufactured. It sounds incredibly corny and phony, but that’s exactly what happened to me and what she has meant to me.”
Johnny Depp.
“johnny had a bar where concerts were played in los angeles. and that’s where we met. it was very dark, like it is in any other place like that. it was in a very little room in that club. it was really very dark! i was introduced to the owner of the club, i shook his hand, said hello and then, suddenly i looked up and i saw those eyes! after that he went to play on stage and i saw him in the light. so, then i went “ah yeah!” but before, when i shook his hand, i didn’t know who he was! but this was five years before we became a couple. but he has never left my mind after that day. and he is an angel.”
Vanessa Paradis

“She’s kind of a walking poem, she’s this perfect beauty…but at the same time very deep, very smart.” - Johnny Depp
