When I saw that show Lost I learned something. Other than one sort of big dude if you're in an airplane crash only models survive. So you know sit next to somebody pretty, but anyhow.

More quotes by Billy Bob Thornton
Songwriting and screenwriting aren't that different to me.
Billy Bob Thornton
Movies these days have made killers into funny people. What's that all about? I've got kids and family and friends, and I don't like bad things. I don't think they're funny, and it's irresponsible to make movies that don't show you how that's not good.
Billy Bob Thornton
I can't sit through plays and musical theatre. I just want to run up onstage and mess up their hair and turn over the furniture.
Billy Bob Thornton
All the actors I've worked with as a director over the years I really love and I thought they were all right for the part.
Billy Bob Thornton
I think people can live a religious life and yet believe in things maybe outside the box a little bit.
Billy Bob Thornton
If you love somebody let them know every day.
Billy Bob Thornton
When people are bothering you constantly when you're trying to do just a simple thing that humans do every day but they won't let you do it without bugging you about it, that was a hard thing. Because I became a movie star overnight. From a working actor and working writer to a movie star.
Billy Bob Thornton
Everything is very convenient now and it would be real nice if somehow people started going back to the movie theater. And it's people of my generation. It's their fault in a lot of ways, people over 40. It's their fault that the only movies are about robots and beautiful vampires. It's wild, all vampires are beautiful.
Billy Bob Thornton
If you're 25 years old dressed up like Superman at a comic book convention, that's great. If you're 78 and you're doing it, something's wrong.
Billy Bob Thornton
My songs aren't built around choruses or hooks or anything like that. That's kind of how I write screenplays too.
Billy Bob Thornton
I've been largely an improvisational actor for most of my career.
Billy Bob Thornton
Normally you're 21 years old and you look like Tom Cruise and you do a couple underwear commercials first and then you're a movie star. That didn't happen for me. So it was all quite overwhelming.
Billy Bob Thornton
The great movies that I want to do now are being made for $2.5-million budgets.
Billy Bob Thornton
I’m not much of a drinker, so I’m going to eat seven pounds of pork.
Billy Bob Thornton
A lot of kids, when they go to church, they don't really pay much attention to what they're saying or whatever.
Billy Bob Thornton
I write songs on guitar and that's about how good of a guitar player I am. I can write songs on it.
Billy Bob Thornton
Kids won't watch older movies - they want to see what's hip right now.
Billy Bob Thornton
When I was growing up, when I was 11 years old I was listening to The Mothers of Invention. You know, I mean I was a Frank Zappa fan in Arkansas.
Billy Bob Thornton
Somewhere along the line we stopped believing we could do anything. And if we don't have our dreams, we have nothing.
Billy Bob Thornton
I've been married five times, and people think that's some bizarre thing, yet I've got buddies who refuse to get married and have sex with 15 people a week. I'm like Which is better? At least I was trying.
