More quotes by Ethan Hawke
People are conditioned to just you know, like, you know we're like little birdies going to the bird feeder you know, or the little cows going to the salt lick. We just like what we've seen before.
Ethan Hawke
I kill flies, I eat meat, you know, whatever.

I don't know what has happened to movies, but lately every movie is at least 20 minutes too long. It used to be that if you were three hours long it was because it was epic - a movie about Gandhi something with very important subject matters.
Ethan Hawke
The Woodstock Film festival is among the finest of a dying breed: a festival that isn’t trying to sell you anything, but simply and beautifully celebrating the art & craft of filmmaking.
Ethan Hawke
Sometimes people, their creative drive comes from an energy to try to heal themselves.
Ethan Hawke
We all have this fantasy of finding our one true love who's going to be the perfect fit. It's just not a reality.
Ethan Hawke
Sometimes in the life of an actor you're not getting offered any jobs that speak to you. The trouble with acting is that you're only as good as your opportunities.
Ethan Hawke
One of the hardest things about my job is that there kind of is no one rulebook that applies to all situations.
Ethan Hawke
The drones are really interesting - how have the troops withdrawn from Afghanistan? Because we've upped the drone strikes and most of the country doesn't even really know what that means or who we're killing or... it's such a new weapon that we don't know what the long term impacts of that kind of military action is going to be.

Seeing the play ( A Lie of the Mind ) clearly is part of why I wanted to direct it. I see hope at the end of this play. People talk about how dark the play was, but I feel like, if you really look at the darkness, you're able to go through it, and you realize that you can handle dark moments in life and that everything will be all right.
Ethan Hawke
If you can understand the inner life, then you can wear the uniform, the tattoos, or whatnot and realize that the things that are different about us become superficial.
Ethan Hawke
Your development as a person should coincide with your development in all aspects of your life.
Ethan Hawke
I have a daughter and the thing I wish for her is not love, fame, money or anything like that. It's just one great best friend. You know, if you have somebody that has your back, you're gonna be all right.
Ethan Hawke
Most of us float with the river and there are a few people who move the river. Robert DeNiro is definitely one of them.
Ethan Hawke
Emma Watson is my kids' favorite actor on the planet. They never took me more seriously than when I was working with her.
Ethan Hawke
When you do 'Before Sunset,' you know while it's a limited audience, there was a very small group of people that love 'Before Sunrise.' You feel a certain pressure to make sure that you uphold a level of quality that has been a bar. You set a bar and you have to at least match it.
Ethan Hawke
It is quite rare to find people who are really dedicated to a level of excellence. Most of us are really quite lazy most of the time.
Ethan Hawke
I think it's my job to risk looking foolish. One of the things I've learned from the actors I've worked with is you don't get something for nothing. If you don't risk looking foolish, you'll never do anything special.
Ethan Hawke
The truth is that the more you get paid, the less freedom you have. They never pay you for nothing.
Ethan Hawke
I remember staying up all night waiting to see the first screening of Cape Fear because you knew that every time Robert DeNiro had a performance it was going to be revelatory. Then DeNiro hit this place, he seemed like he was done with the emotional cost of impaling himself like that, and he dedicated himself to comedy.
