More quotes by John Malkovich

John Malkovich
You have to play your characters, not like them.
John Malkovich
I am inspired by the appearance of a bohemian of the new millennium.
John Malkovich
Chicago my favourite American city. I'm very much a typical midwesterner, and I don't think the condition is curable.
John Malkovich
My father was an exceptionally strong influence on me.
John Malkovich
I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
