More quotes by Jack Nicholson
Everyone pretty much acknowledges that he's the man, and I still feel that underrates him.
Jack Nicholson
Children give your life a resonance that it can't have without them.
Jack Nicholson
I'm certainly not as tough as people think. I'm not a fighter and so forth. I'd just as soon go home.
Jack Nicholson
I want my kids to have a deep, inner feeling that it's alright to be happy, that you don't have to be constantly manufacturing problems that you don't really have.
Jack Nicholson
Everybody's old enough for a beer, ain't that right, Mule?
Jack Nicholson
Son, we live in a world that has walls and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You!?
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
Many actors will try something different once, but if it isn't a box office success they'll never do it again. In my opinion, there's no point in going on with this job if you do the same thing over and over again.
Jack Nicholson
I suppose I can do more for a script as an actor than as a writer - in the film sense.
Jack Nicholson
A man needs a private life. With no ability to have a private life, one thing leads to another, and before you know it we have Bill and Monica. We need to get real about things. Humans are humans. Why should we expect more?
Jack Nicholson
I'd prefer if people had no impressions of me. As a kid, I had to tell my own family, Please, just don't talk about me! Because they always got it wrong. Always. I just didn't want them to tell anyone anything about me.
Jack Nicholson
One of my school friends' parents owned a minigolf course, and a bunch of us kids would play there all day in the summer. Two-under deuces was a good score.
Jack Nicholson
A star on a movie set is like a time bomb. That bomb has got to be defused so people can approach it without fear.
Jack Nicholson
The blues and jazz will live forever... So will the Delta and the Big Easy.
Jack Nicholson
Just because you're perfectionist doesn't mean you're perfect.
Jack Nicholson
I don't think many people have a very good understanding of leisure and the importance it plays in our lives.
Jack Nicholson
We live, we die, and the wheels on the bus go round and round.
Jack Nicholson
There's a period just before you start a movie when you start thinking, I don't know what in the world I'm going to do. It's free-floating anxiety. In my case, though, this is over by lunch the first day of shooting.
Jack Nicholson
I began to think that the finest modern writer was the screen actor. This was in the spirit of the Fifties where a very antiliterary literature was emerging - Kenneth Patchen and others. I kind of believed what Nietzsche said, that nothing not written in your blood is worth reading it's just more pollution of the airwaves.
Jack Nicholson
Well, a girlfriend once told me never to fight with anybody you don't love.
