More quotes by Jack Nicholson
I have never lied to you, I have always told you some version of the truth.
Jack Nicholson
Once you've been really bad in a movie, there's a certain kind of fearlessness you develop.
Jack Nicholson

When I come up against a director who has a concept that I don't agree with, or maybe I just haven't thought of it or whatever, I'd be more prone to go with them than my own because I want to be out of control as an actor, I want them to have the control, otherwise it's going to become predictably my work, and that's not fun.
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

Jack Nicholson
People who speak in metaphors should shampoo my crotch.
Jack Nicholson
Almost everybody's happy to be a fool for love.
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
Age is the first limitation on roles that I've ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago.
Jack Nicholson
I've always had lots of friends who share my perspective - I guess you could say that I'm a guy who aggressively pursues his happiness.
Jack Nicholson
I don't even own a cell phone.
Jack Nicholson
In my last year of school, I was voted Class Optimist and Class Pessimist. Looking back, I realize I was only half right.
Jack Nicholson
If I were an Arab-American, I would insist on being profiled. This is not the time for civil rights. There are larger issues for Americans.
