Not only is America a country where torture is now policy. It's now outsourced. It's given to companies at a cost-plus basis. It's a triple whammy of surreal, absolute madness.

More quotes by 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
Being on a movie set is like one long financial crisis.
John Cusack
Hollywood is just a bunch of people going around in Learjets to other people asking them if they've got any money? Well, they might have if they didn't spend it all on jets.
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 think that taking night trains or meeting someone on the road is pretty romantic. I've done a couple of things like that. I've surprised someone in Paris. And hopefully, when you surprise someone, they're happy to see you.
John Cusack
I'm not making any plans. I'm just going to let the universe surprise me.
John Cusack
Getting trapped back in the '80s, it's almost like a comic nightmare, which for me is a very real nightmare. Every time I flip through the cable, I have flashbacks.
John Cusack
I force people to have coffee with me, just because I don't trust that a friendship can be maintained without any other senses besides a computer or cellphone screen.
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
Don't buy into the corporate mythology that's been rammed down our throats for all these years.
John Cusack
The elderly have so much to offer. They're our link with history.
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
I think poets tell better history than historians. Historians lie all the time but the poets can get to truth of it.
John Cusack
I try not to dwell on the past. I'm not a big go-back-and-try-to-relive-your-past kinda person.
John Cusack
Maybe the absence of signs is a sign.
John Cusack
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
Satire is meant to have teeth satire is meant to be dangerous. But it also happens to be fun because subversion and telling the right kind of people to go to hell is supposed to feel good.
John Cusack
If I'm in something that I think is kinda good, it stays with me like a fever dream for a long time afterwards. I don't recall the finished product so much as the feeling of making it.
John Cusack
But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.
John Cusack
Hopefully as you get older you get more selfless. That would be probably a good goal. I don't know if we do, though.
