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
I was never a fanatical movie person. There are many popular films I absolutely love like anyone else. Having said that, I don't have time to go to the movies very much. I work a lot of different things, I'm always busy. But I'm always happy to see a popular movie.
John Malkovich
I think with actors, if you just don't set about trying to crush their confidence immediately, you're usually OK.
John Malkovich
I go around the world, working with all kinds of people who I love.
John Malkovich
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.
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
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.

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 like design, I like details, to me it is just another form of self-expression.
John Malkovich

John Malkovich
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.
John Malkovich
You can be a mason and build 50 buildings, but it doesn't mean you can design one.
John Malkovich
I don't really go through a process, it goes through me.
John Malkovich
It never occurred to me to be an actor.
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 don't remember my life before I had children.
John Malkovich
I don't wake up drenched in sweat because I haven't been on stage in years.
John Malkovich
There's no worse feeling in the world than realizing the play you've directed doesn't work.
John Malkovich
