More quotes by John Lithgow
That's how you deal with stardom you make it the least important part of your life.
John Lithgow
I can't imagine doing an hour-long dramatic series because it's so much work. A sitcom is a wonderful gig. You work from 10 to 4 every day, it's fun, and you get to live at home.
John Lithgow
Any character you play, you're on his side. You do have the third eye that looks at what an appalling creature he is, but you have to look at what's good about him.
John Lithgow

I can't get used to the fact that I'm 68 years old. I still feel like a youngster. I am playing a part even older than 68 - 71 years old. It's kind of startling to see myself in a movie and realize, Yup. That's exactly what I look like.
John Lithgow
I think there are all sorts of ways of turning into an actor, and there are a vast variety of different actors. You know, you interview plenty of actors and you know they come at it from a different direction and acting means different things to a lot of people.
John Lithgow
Shakespeare is like mother's milk to me.
John Lithgow
I'm very concerned for the future of the earth and its amazing creatures. We've got to be careful and make sure we don't foul our own nest
John Lithgow
I don't hesitate to do nudity as an actor if it's done well.
John Lithgow
It's very interesting, I had an extremely intense experience with my dad in 2002, when he was an old man and very ill and I was taking care of him and my mother, and he was extremely depressed, virtually lost the will to live, and I realized my main job was cheering him up to save his life.
John Lithgow
I look for every opportunity to mix comedy and horror and tragedy. I love catching audiences off-guard.
John Lithgow
I find I have to walk a little faster in public these days, but it's very easy to remember when nobody had any idea who I was.
John Lithgow
I'd sleep under a Vermeer.
John Lithgow
I consider myself a very lucky actor that, approaching 60, I'm still employed and employable.
John Lithgow
I have a lot of faith in people.
John Lithgow
