I've permitted myself to learn and to fail with some regularity. And that is probably the one thing I was given, and that I'm still grateful for.

More quotes by John Malkovich
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
John Malkovich
A dog that has rabies probably will do things it wouldn't do if it didn't have rabies. But that doesn't change the fact that it has rabies.
John Malkovich
Much of what you do as an actor - it's who's around you, what's the environment, where do you fit into this thing. That's really work that's impossible to do on your own, at least for me. I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
John Malkovich
I mean, a lot of time rehearsals are taken up with other things other than preparing a character.
John Malkovich
I like to direct movies, but I don't like to goof around for eight years talking about it.
John Malkovich
I don't lose my temper very often now, and if I do, it's well deserved.
John Malkovich
Most of the women that I like have a haunted quality - they're sort of like women who live in a haunted house by themselves.
John Malkovich
I never wanted to be with someone who just hung around the house.
John Malkovich
Things are so much global and Americanised.
John Malkovich
I'm more boring and more conservative.
John Malkovich
I am inspired by the appearance of a bohemian of the new millennium.
John Malkovich
You have to do things people see or you don't get to do anything.
John Malkovich
I was never a fanatical movie person.
John Malkovich
I'm a little bit of a fabric lunatic.
John Malkovich
With acting it's your neck up there in the end. And if you think the director can't help you it's one thing. But if you feel they're reining you in when they need to be giving you some rope, or vice versa, then I just don't tolerate that.
John Malkovich
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
John Malkovich
I'm more comfortable with whatever's wrong with me than my father was whenever he felt he failed or didn't measure up to the standard he set.
John Malkovich
I don't wake up drenched in sweat because I haven't been on stage in years.
John Malkovich
I think probably when I was little, after my brother turned on me, I just had to play by myself or with myself. I've always done that. I think either it's some kind of weirdly competitive streak or it takes my mind off whatever's bothering me.
John Malkovich
I don't need to be liked.
John Malkovich
