George Clooney quotes that show he is a Type 3

  • “The only failure is not to try.”

  • “Failures are infinitely more instructive than successes.”

  • “I certainly direct with confidence even if I'm not confident. I learned early on as an actor that confidence can be faked, and it's not always a terrible thing to do. A lot of times if people feel you're confident, then they're confident.”

  • “Having 'Oscar winner' on your tombstone is a great thing.”

  • “You can't legislate good taste” (which is indicative of his 4 Wing).

  • "I had to stop going to auditions thinking, 'Oh, I hope they like me.' I had to go in thinking I was the answer to their problem."

  • "I don't believe in heaven and hell. I don't know if I believe in God. All I know is that as an individual, I won't allow this life – the only thing I know to exist – to be wasted."

  • "Success is relative. It is what we can make of the mess we have made of things."
