More quotes by John Larroquette
If 50 percent of your career is not filled with failure, you're not really successful.
John Larroquette
I love reading. I'm fortunate enough to have signed books by Faulkner, Steinbeck, Thomas Pynchon.
John Larroquette
The only thing I haven't done as an actor, other than Thai puppet theater somewhere, is act on a Broadway stage.
John Larroquette
I was a French Quarter rat from the moment I could get on a bus by myself and go to the French Quarter. I played music most of my early life and it just seemed that to entertain people was a really good thing to do.
John Larroquette
I've seen more convincing wigs on William Shatner.

The opportunity to carry water every night to James Earl Jones on stage is a dream come true.

You take jobs so much of the time when you don't need to necessarily work for a living, but it becomes important who you are going to work with.
John Larroquette
The sad fact is that the vast majority of drunks stay drunks. There's a small minority of us who reach that fork in the road where one side says 'live' and the other says 'drink'.
John Larroquette
Unfortunately, I'm not a history buff. I don't read biographies, except of some of those writers whom I've collected over the years - particularly Samuel Beckett and Henry Miller, people like Charles Bukowski and John Fante and David Foster Wallace.

I can't pass up a blank book when I see it in a bookstore. And I write a sentence in it, and then I put it away.
John Larroquette
I began my career in Los Angeles and started working fairly quickly.
John Larroquette
I guess we all have some sort of Rubicon that we haven't crossed in our lives and we've thought about for who knows how long. And for me, it's writing.
John Larroquette
I love working with Gary Sinise.

I don't have anything against audiobooks. I actually did a couple of them - but not many. I just never got into it, timing-wise. I don't listen to them, if that's any indication of my feelings about them. I'd rather read.
John Larroquette
Again, as egotistical as I am, as self-centered as I am, and as much as I love strangers idolizing me, I find it very crass to be self-promoter in a way.
John Larroquette
I don't do a lot of guest shots on television.
John Larroquette
I'd turn off the internet for a month and make us actually talk to each other, and be responsible for your opinions and not be able to hide behind the anonymity of the cyber-wall to speak your mind. To actually have to face people and see their reactions and discuss it - actually discuss it. It won't happen. Unless the grid goes down.
John Larroquette
I collect books, primarily first-edition 20th-century fiction.
John Larroquette
I certainly don't condemn anyone who listens to audiobooks. It seems to me that any way we get good literature in our brain is worthwhile.
