Jack Nicholson
If you're going to write, write one poem all your life, let nobody read it, and then burn it. This is very young thinking, I confess, but it is the seminal part of my life.
Jack Nicholson
Because you know, down deep in my heart, when all is said and done, I still live under the illusion that basically people think of me as an up-and-coming young actor.
Jack Nicholson
I wanted to be the best actor possible. I worked very hard at the craft of it.
Jack Nicholson
As an actor, I want to give in to the collaboration with the director because I don't want my work to be all the same. The more this can be done with comfort, the more variety my work has had.
Jack Nicholson
I have given a name to my pain, and it is Batman.
