More quotes by John Malkovich
I don't really have a comprehension of being a public figure.
John Malkovich
It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you never catch.
John Malkovich
It never occurred to me to be an actor.
John Malkovich
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
John Malkovich
It's funny - people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and THEY go to CHURCH.
John Malkovich
In New York in the Forties or Fifties, everybody's in a suit, an overcoat and a hat.
John Malkovich
I never really did a western western.
John Malkovich
Well, I design costumes because I started with the theater in Chicago, but somehow a few lines just sort of fell to me to do it. And I studied it in school and I always liked it.
John Malkovich
Unlike my grandfather or my brother, I've actually been able to make some money at a racetrack.
John Malkovich
Most films, it doesn't matter if you see them or not.
John Malkovich
My father was an exceptionally strong influence on me.
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 theater is so disappointing, really, that it's hard to go again and again. It's just too heartbreaking. I'd rather watch football or play a game or read.
John Malkovich
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
John Malkovich
I don't need to be liked.
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.
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
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
You can be a mason and build 50 buildings, but it doesn't mean you can design one.
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.
