More quotes by 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'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
I don't want people to know what I'm actually like. It's not good for an actor.
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 do pray. I pray to something...up there. I have a God sense. It's not religious so much as superstitious. It's part of being human, I guess.
Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson
You make me want to be a better man.
Jack Nicholson

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
Almost everybody's happy to be a fool for love.
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
I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace.
Jack Nicholson
Early on, if I was alone two three nights in a row, I'd start writing poems about suicide.
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
Acting is everybody's favorite second job.
Jack Nicholson
With comedy, you have to do it right. In a drama, there's a lot of different ways to succeed in a moment. But comedy comes from reality. You can't try to be funny.
Jack Nicholson
Just let the wardrobe do the acting.
Jack Nicholson
