More quotes by Jack Nicholson
My only emotion is gratitude, literally, for my life.
Jack Nicholson
I don't even own a cell phone.
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 Irish. I think about death all the time.
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
Beer, it's the best damn drink in the world.
Jack Nicholson
I used to think that one of the great signs of security was the ability to just walk away.
Jack Nicholson
I like to not care that much about criticism, but I do care about it.
Jack Nicholson
Everyone pretty much acknowledges that he's the man, and I still feel that underrates him.
Jack Nicholson
Human beings are always going to find interesting ways of making a mess of their lives. It's human nature.
Jack Nicholson
As a means of supporting experiential element in film, once I begin to work on a particular movie I consider myself to be the tool of the director.
Jack Nicholson
It always bothered me when people came off stage and were told how great they were. They weren't, really, in my opinion. It was then I started thinking that, contrary to conventional wisdom, film was the artful medium for the actor, not the stage.
Jack Nicholson
Once you've been really bad in a movie, there's a certain kind of fearlessness you develop.
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
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
A lot of people can't remember things because they weren't actually there to begin with - they don't take it all in.
Jack Nicholson
Always try in interviews to avoid the cliches about the problems of public life.
Jack Nicholson
The way I reacted to 9/11 was I decided I didn't want to do any movies that are sad or critical. I decided I didn't want to make my living depressing people or making them go home sick, so I just decided I wanted to do comedy for a while and study it for a while. It doesn't mean everybody should do that, but that was my reaction.
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
If it is difficult to know yourself as an individual, it seems to be more complex as a couple. So if you say, Oh I like a person who is like this and that, you might take away the possibility of seeing the only one that might be right for you.
Jack Nicholson
