More quotes by 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
Scary monsters are like Hula Hoops. They come in and out of fashion.
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
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
I mean, anything that money can be made off will never be a problem to make, no matter what it is.
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
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
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
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
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
I like to direct movies, but I don't like to goof around for eight years talking about it.
John Malkovich
I always wanted to be fashionable.
John Malkovich
I still have a temper, I suppose.
John Malkovich
And if you say a word about this over the radio, the next wings you see will belong to the flies buzzing over your rotting corpse.
John Malkovich
My father was an exceptionally strong influence on me.
John Malkovich
I only have two rules for my newly born daughter: she will dress well and never have sex.
John Malkovich
I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.
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
