More quotes by John Cusack
I love these movies where it's just about the film. You don't have my face on the poster. It's all about the movie. I like that.
John Cusack
The people who say they're for democracy want nothing to do with democracy.
John Cusack
The elderly have so much to offer. They're our link with history.

A lot of powerful people in Washington may think it's a crazy-leftist-fringe position to think the intellectual authors of a torture regime should be investigated and prosecuted.
John Cusack
I don't agonize over decisions as much these days. The criteria of what's important to me is clear.
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
In the future, there is no future.
John Cusack
I think poets tell better history than historians. Historians lie all the time but the poets can get to truth of it.

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 was a teen star. That's disgusting enough.
John Cusack
New York's like a boxing match. In Hollywood, it's like a Fellini movie or something.
John Cusack
If you're looking at things with the right set of eyes, people are endlessly fascinating. And then, of course, if you look at it the wrong way, then the whole world is horrible and tedious and boring. That's the battle, really--to keep looking at the world in the right way.
John Cusack
My job is to just express something that I want to express. And if I'm ahead or behind the curve, that's for others to decide.
John Cusack
Get your sense of outrage back, and your sense of defiance and spirit back, and try to put these pieces together and confront the excesses of empire at every turn.
John Cusack
My point was that it's hard to make good films, but I'm not under any illusion that you do all the time.
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
But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.
