More quotes by John Malkovich
I like to direct movies, but I don't like to goof around for eight years talking about it.
John Malkovich
I am inspired by the appearance of a bohemian of the new millennium.
John Malkovich
You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting.
John Malkovich
I go around the world, working with all kinds of people who I love.
John Malkovich
I don't really have a comprehension of being a public figure.
John Malkovich
I don't throw things or yell.
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
Actors generally get to do things you probably shouldn't do in real life - well, at least as much as one might like to or be tempted to. Though I suppose a lot of actors just go ahead and do it, don't they?
John Malkovich
I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
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
You have to do things people see or you don't get to do anything.
John Malkovich
I've always been an avid reader. Everyone in my family read a lot. Considering we were from a little town, we were pretty literate.
John Malkovich
I don't wake up drenched in sweat because I haven't been on stage in years.
John Malkovich
I don't remember my life before I had children.
John Malkovich
There's no worse feeling in the world than realizing the play you've directed doesn't work.
John Malkovich
I only have two rules for my newly born daughter: she will dress well and never have sex.
John Malkovich
I don't need to be liked.
John Malkovich
I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.
John Malkovich
When you do a really good play, the audience and the performers are looking into the same looking glass, the same microscope. And the specimen they are looking at is human life and that's why I do it, that's why I like it.
John Malkovich
The media can make anything true or untrue. So if you do 80 films and you play a bad guy ten times, then you're a bad guy, and then the media repeats that.
