Jack Nicholson
I think the Greeks invented sports as an antidote to philosophy.
Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson
He [Castro] is a genius. We spoke about everything.
Jack Nicholson
I think that's what distinguishes Schmidt, really. In the movies now, so much of what is appealing to an audience is the dramatic or has to do with science fiction, and Schmidt is simply human. There's no melodrama there's no device, It's just about a human being.
Jack Nicholson
Have you ever danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?
Jack Nicholson
I envy people of faith. I'm incapable of believing in anything supernatural.
Jack Nicholson
Once you've been really bad in a movie, there's a certain kind of fearlessness you develop.
Jack Nicholson
I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace.
Jack Nicholson
I like to not care that much about criticism, but I do care about it.
Jack Nicholson
Always try in interviews to avoid the cliches about the problems of public life.
Jack Nicholson
