More quotes by John Malkovich
I don't lose my temper very often now, and if I do, it's well deserved.
John Malkovich
People always say life is short. I've never been convinced of that - mine seems to have a tendency to go on and on.
John Malkovich
My father was a very contradictory man. I mean, most environmentalists in America in the 1950s - of which there were hardly any - were not... paratroopers. But my father was in the 82nd Airborne, it was just like that.
John Malkovich
I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.
John Malkovich
I like design, I like details, to me it is just another form of self-expression.
John Malkovich
I don't throw things or yell.
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
You can be a mason and build 50 buildings, but it doesn't mean you can design one.
John Malkovich
I mean, anything that money can be made off will never be a problem to make, no matter what it is.
John Malkovich
Utopia means elsewhere.
John Malkovich
I never really did a western western.
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 grew tired of religion some time not long after birth. I believe in people, I believe in humans, I believe in a car, but I don't believe something I can't have absolutely no evidence of for millenniums. And it's funny, people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and they go to church.
John Malkovich
When I have failed as an actor I've always thought it was my fault. But when I direct something, I wouldn't want the actors to think it was their fault.
John Malkovich
As an actor there are no drawbacks.
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 mind what I play, really.
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
I'm more boring and more conservative.
John Malkovich
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid, but my father always told me - occasionally while striking me - that I was much more interested in how I looked playing baseball or football than in actually playing. And I think there's great truth in that.
