You will lose people, but do not lose yourself.“I don’t want to flee from life, I know the beauty of it... I’m trying not to be alone so much. And, man, it’s a struggle. I want to get married. I want to have kids. That’s at the top of the mountain. I’ve got to climb the mountain first. I’ll do it. Just give me some time.” - Keanu Reeves

Wait for better days

It can be more rewarding than riches.Keanu is thought to have made about $110 million from Matrix, $75 million of which he reportedly gave to the special effects team and costume design department. He also bought the entire stunt team their own Harley Davidson motorcycles. Over the years, Keanu has also given millions to charities including PETA, the SickKids Foundation, and Stand Up To Cancer.

Don't let setbacks define you

Keanu Reeves: philosopher, martial artist, musician, motorcycle enthusiast, movie star, conspiracy theories material and the internet's favourite person.Throughout his life, he seems to have experienced more extremes than any one person could handle. His story is arguably more interesting than any of the roles he has played in his long acting career.

Internet's favorite person

Keanu always seems to have put his personal ambitions, morals and preferences before simply taking a job to make money. Perhaps the most famous example of Keanu’s ‘do what you love’ spirit is found when he dismissed $11 million to be in the Speed sequel or a chance to star alongside Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino in the 1995 movie Heat. Instead he chose to partake in a small production of Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Let passion drive you

A difficult start does not necessarily mean you will have a challenging life, and it certainly doesn’t entitle you to a bad attitude. Despite the many tragedies that have woven their way into the seams of Keanu’s past he remains a positive force in this world, who breaks the mould and boundaries that are often imagined between the famous and the public.
