More quotes by Jack Nicholson
I don't want people to know what I'm actually like. It's not good for an actor.

Jack Nicholson
It's a slight stretch of the imagination but most people are alike in most ways so I've never had any trouble identifying with the character that I'm playing.
Jack Nicholson
I guess this proves there are as many nuts in the Academy as anywhere else.
Jack Nicholson
There's a tacit agreement today that the white male is the only legitimate target for any and all satire, criticism, and so forth. And we pretty much just accept it.
Jack Nicholson
Before I moved into the mainstream of American movies, I wrote a script as an experiment. I wanted to get very far away from the clichés about the three-act play - structure, development.
Jack Nicholson
I only take Viagra when I'm with more than one woman.
Jack Nicholson
