More quotes by Jack Nicholson
Because of the way the business is structured, I have sometimes turned down scripts that I might otherwise have accepted had I known who was directing them.
Jack Nicholson
I'm definitely still wild at heart.
Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson
I wanted to be the best actor possible. I worked very hard at the craft of it.
Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson
I have given a name to my pain, and it is Batman.
Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson
I'm content with the fact that I made a decent effort. That's what I've always worried about: that I wouldn't try hard enough.
Jack Nicholson
I take responsibility for my successes as well as my failures. But when I look at my professional mistakes, I'm always left with the feeling that maybe I should have done more.
Jack Nicholson
I'm not a power person. I like everyone to be on an equal footing.
Jack Nicholson
I used to think that one of the great signs of security was the ability to just walk away.
Jack Nicholson
I'm very fortunate in the sense that outside of cohabitating relationships and so forth, I've always got on just as well with women.
Jack Nicholson
Just let the wardrobe do the acting.
