I don't agonize over decisions as much these days. The criteria of what's important to me is clear.

More quotes by John Cusack
I've seen the people who talk about their love lives in print invariably have doomed relationships with the person they're talking about.
John Cusack
I feel close to Lloyd in 'Say Anything'. He was like a super-interesting version of me. Only I'm not as good as him. Whatever part of me is romantic and optimistic, I reached into that to play Lloyd.
John Cusack
I'm a paranoid schizophrenic. I am my own entourage!
John Cusack
But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.
John Cusack
I always liked it when people go back in time to discover things about themselves, like with 'A Christmas Carol' and you're getting a tour of your life by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future.
John Cusack
When applied to politics and taken to its extreme, kitsch is the mask of death. Fascism was all aesthetics. There was no core principle to it. There was no truth to it.
John Cusack
I think it's very improtant and healthy to tell differnt stories than the corporatist narratives we are being asked to swallow hook, line and sinker.
John Cusack
All the choices we make in our life are pointless. There’s no escaping the inevitable.
John Cusack
My dad had a commercial film company, so he had a videotape player before anyone. So he got Mel Brooks movies or Citizen Kane or some classic old movies. And every summer the revival house in Evanston would show the great films from the '50s and '60s and '70s.
John Cusack
The movies have got more corporate, they're making fewer movies in general, and those they are making are all $200-$300m tent-pole releases that eat up all the oxygen.
John Cusack
If you help manufacture an enemy that's really evil, you can point to the fact that it's really evil, and say, Hey, it's really evil.
John Cusack
I think that Poe is so resonant because he represents that part of us that is in misery or sorrowful or wants to explore the darkness. He wrote a great story called 'The Imp of the Perverse' about the instinct towards self-destruction. Poe is the godfather of Goth literature and that whole movement.
John Cusack
The situation in the film is like me going out to Venice Beach and talking to a homeless guy on the boardwalk, and 13 years later he's the president.
John Cusack
These guys who talk about free markets, they're not ideologues they're crooks.
John Cusack
Of course, I think it is legitimate for the Commander-in-Chief to be concerned for the safety of his soldiers.
John Cusack
Maybe the absence of signs is a sign.
John Cusack
I think everything has some politics to it. It's just whether or not it admits to it. Politics is weird. I don't even know what that means any more.
John Cusack
I like the George Romero films, which were really great, social satire movies really twisted.
John Cusack
The Sugar Frosted Nutsack is dizzyingly brilliant. Mark Leyner is a hyperkinetic shaman, who flies the banner of rum and candy and writes like a one-eyed feral bandit. His new book is supremely original, delirious and synapse-shattering.
John Cusack
I just love the process of working with other actors. It's like jamming with a musician, except it takes a little more effort to get to that place as an actor, because you have the cameras and lights and everything. But I love jamming with these people.
