More quotes by Jack Nicholson
I have never felt brutalized as an actor. Many actors do, some times, but I've never had that experience. If I'm not happy with the balance, I just won't work with that person again.

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?

Jack Nicholson
The blues and jazz will live forever... So will the Delta and the Big Easy.

You can't say, I'm gonna make a hit movie. You're as dead as you could be.
Jack Nicholson
I don't have any fear of intimacy, but rather thrive on it, which is rare in a public person.
Jack Nicholson
I have a lot of vanity.
Jack Nicholson
I never had a policy about marriage. I got married very young in life and I always think in all relationships, I've always thought that it's counterproductive to have a theory on that.
Jack Nicholson
Human beings are always going to find interesting ways of making a mess of their lives. It's human nature.
Jack Nicholson
He [Castro] is a genius. We spoke about everything.
Jack Nicholson
When you use a dialect, you worry that the people you're imitating will think you're making fun of them.
