William Hurt
“You have to create a track record of breaking your own mold, or at least other people's idea of that mold.”
Kevin Kline
“I've never felt completely satisfied with what I've done. I tend to see things too critically. I'm trying to get over that. I've got the Jewish guilt and the Irish shame and it's a hell of a job distinguishing which is which.”
Ralph Fiennes
“As an actor, a part of you expects to be looked at. A part of you wants to be looked at. But when I’m playing a part, in my imagined world, I feel I’m not me. I may be using bits of me, but I love the sense that I’m being someone else.”
Juliette Lewis
“I don’t want to be famous as a movie star and have the whole world love me, I want to be a creative actress.”
Naomi Watts
“Pain is such an important thing in life. I think that as an artist you have to experience suffering. ”
Zooey Deschanel
“Always the aim for me is making people feel like they are not alone. That’s just the greatest feeling.”
Frances McDormand
“I don't think you can ever completely transform yourself on film, but if you do your job well, you can make people believe that you're the character you're trying to be.”
Billy Crudup
“I wish I could say that when I didn't agree with a director I defer to him, but I think sometimes I'm a little self-righteous.”
Catherine Keener
“Well, for one thing, I like being a supporting actress. I like to come and go in the film. The interesting characters are very few if you want to be the lead, and they depend on you being beautiful. Since I'm not interested in those parts, the pressure's off, in a way. I'm not cast for my physicality. I find that playing so many characters in so many films is a way to be in the moment.”
John Malkovich
“I've permitted myself to learn and to fail with some regularity. And that is probably the one thing I was given, and that I'm still grateful for.”
James Franco
“As an actor, you can tell yourself that your self-worth isn’t measured by how your last movie did at the box office. But I found when acting was all I had, inevitably I would be emotionally affected by how well a movie did.”
Bill Wyman
“I didn’t want to stay in the Stones, and be stuck in a position having to play a music I didn’t like anymore and that restricted me from doing all the others things I’m interested in because of time.”
Charlie Watts
“I went into rhythm and blues. When they asked me to play, I didn’t know what it was. I thought it meant Charlie Parker, played slow.”
Mick Jagger
“People have this obsession. They want you to be like you were in 1969. They want you to, because otherwise their youth goes with you. It's very selfish, but it's understandable.”
Jeff Bridges
“When you start to engage with your creative processes, it shakes up all your impulses, and they all kind of inform one another.”
Julianne Moore
“I'm looking for the truth. The audience doesn't come to see you, they come to see themselves.”
