More quotes by Ethan Hawke
If you don't risk doing something foolish, you'll never do anything special.
Ethan Hawke
In fact, I think my life is always going to be difficult, because I am trying to do something... original is a big word. It's kind of pathetic, but I have to love what I'm doing.
Ethan Hawke
Set designers, costume designers, actors, writers, music, that's what is beautiful.
Ethan Hawke
One of the things I can do is to try to put myself in different kinds of movies and that kind of subtly changes my work. By the time my obituary is written, I want there to be a great western and a great comedy.
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
There's only so often you're going to have an opportunity to contribute at a high level and that you should be grateful whenever one presents itself and not take it lightly.
Ethan Hawke
The writing process was some of the most exciting and rewarding moments of my life. It felt a lot like being in a band.

It's interesting to work with Emma [Watson] so quickly after Harry Potter. When we shot this movie, it wasn't that long after Harry Potter was finished, and it's knowing that's a big transition in her life. She's a very talented young woman.
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
The older I get, the more obvious it is that you're not really in control of your life, you're a part of a larger wave, no matter who you are.
Ethan Hawke
I've had several moments in my career where it seemed like I might not age out of the bracket the world wants to put you in. It's hard to keep growing up inside the performing arts. It's very difficult, and presents a lot of unique challenges.
Ethan Hawke
I auditioned for Robert Redford once and I was so starstruck I couldn't even speak. I had a mic wire at a screen test clipped to me and then I got kind of nervous and I paced in a circle and then took a step and tripped and fell on my face. You just have to forgive yourself and keep going on.
Ethan Hawke
I can't tell you how many times in the '90s I'd meet somebody, we'd be having a nice time, and they'd sigh and go, 'This is exactly like Before Sunrise.' And I'd have to get up and leave.
Ethan Hawke
The biggest problem in my life is trying to be the kind of man that I want to be, the father that I want to be, and how to process the failure of my marriage.
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
A good movie humanizes people.
Ethan Hawke
In your mid-twenties, the paint is still wet on who you are.
Ethan Hawke
In all of our society, but especially in Hollywood, there is an obsession with perfection that can lead to self-loathing and neurosis and all that kind of stuff.
Ethan Hawke
One of the things that's really lousy about making movies is that you have such little interaction with your audience.
Ethan Hawke
My goal is to tell good stories. And to try as best I can to do something new with acting. To learn from the past and to be a relevant artist. To make stories that are interesting and contemporary and to tell some kind of emotional truth.
Ethan Hawke
