More quotes by Jack Nicholson
The only way to break a bad habit was to replace it with a better habit.
Jack Nicholson
Comedy is much harder, it's a lot more exacting. You can't just be real and you can't just use the same kind of techniques you use to fill up a regular scene.
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 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
I've always understood money it's not a big mystical thing to me.
Jack Nicholson
I have to keep myself in check when I go to the kids' sports events. I sit waaay in the back. I make sure I don't do too much cheering, you know what I mean? I'm still not quite adjusted to this modern school of thought: Oh, it doesn't matter who wins. I'm not all the way there yet, but I accept it from the back row.
Jack Nicholson
I can't hit on women in public any more. I didn't decide this it just doesn't feel right at my age.
Jack Nicholson
When I am cast in a movie where I feel that the woman's part is more interesting, I usually start thinking about Spencer Tracy and Fred Astaire. They seem to be the most clear actors when working with women.
Jack Nicholson
I'm not hard to get along with.
Jack Nicholson
He [Castro] is a genius. We spoke about everything.
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
In the real world there's an after-effect of disappointment if you lose an argument. But if, to begin with, you're set up not to have this particular autonomy, then you're not disappointed.
Jack Nicholson
Do you think God knew what he was doing when he created woman?
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
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
You can't say, I'm gonna make a hit movie. You're as dead as you could be.
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
Everyone pretty much acknowledges that he's the man, and I still feel that underrates him.
Jack Nicholson
There are short parts that I as an actor am very right for. Or I just like the part. Or you need someone like me for the movie. By that I don't mean at the box office, I mean in the execution of the material.
Jack Nicholson
I used to think that one of the great signs of security was the ability to just walk away.
Jack Nicholson
