More quotes by Billy Bob Thornton
Now, if you want to do realistic, kind of heavier acting stuff, you do it on Amazon or Netflix or whatever or HBO.
Billy Bob Thornton
If you love somebody let them know every day.
Billy Bob Thornton
A lot of people are doing television now. Great, legendary actors are doing movies on cable and stuff now, and you can't blame them, because they're still doing adult dramas and adult comedies on those stations.
Billy Bob Thornton
Reality shows are usually created by people doing and saying stupid things.
Billy Bob Thornton
I didn't cry at my father's funeral, and I felt guilty about that. Of course, he got sick not too long after he and I had had that final altercation, and I felt real guilty because of that, too. Then years later, one day, I was probably in my late twenties, early thirties, and I just broke down crying, because I finally got my father.
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
I've been largely an improvisational actor for most of my career.
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 don't see anything wrong with a cell phone. That's great. You have a flat tire in the middle of the night it works better than digging in your pocket for a quarter and looking for a payphone eight miles down the road.
Billy Bob Thornton
You can get famous for doing something stupid and empty, but you do something stupid and empty and you're already famous, you lose your career.
Billy Bob Thornton
They were on the set of Bad Santa, but I tried to keep the headphones away from them. My kids have seen Sling Blade, Armageddon, Bandits and Friday Night Lights. They have not seen Monster's Ball and nor will they ever. Even when they are 60. I will leave it in my will.
Billy Bob Thornton
People always like stories about the little guy fighting the big guy.
Billy Bob Thornton
As most characters are that I play, there's a lot of me in it, anyway.
Billy Bob Thornton
I actually am a phobic twitchy sort of nervous guy.
Billy Bob Thornton
If you looked in magazines ... you never see me in those out-on-the-town pages. I'm either at home playing with the kids or I'm working.
Billy Bob Thornton
You want to know the hardest thing about being smart? What? I pretty much always know what's going to happen next there's no suspense.
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
On TV you can, you know you can cram, you know, 30 people into a closet and have an orgy, and then they can all shoot up, and everybody has cigarettes in their nostrils and their ears. They don't care. So yeah, television is amazing right now.
Billy Bob Thornton
I have been fortunate to get some really good scripts over the years and I haven't turned down anything that I regretted so far. And my manager who I've been with for over 25 years is very good at knowing what I should and shouldn't do a lot of times.
Billy Bob Thornton
I'll always consider myself a Southerner. A lot of people put California down, but my dreams were realized there.
Billy Bob Thornton
