More quotes by 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
I think probably when I was little, after my brother turned on me, I just had to play by myself or with myself. I've always done that. I think either it's some kind of weirdly competitive streak or it takes my mind off whatever's bothering me.
John Malkovich
Unlike my grandfather or my brother, I've actually been able to make some money at a racetrack.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.
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
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
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
John Malkovich
You can be a mason and build 50 buildings, but it doesn't mean you can design one.
John Malkovich
Even if you do succeed most people wouldn't notice anyway.
John Malkovich
It seems whenever I've had a method or what I perceived to be an intellectual groundwork of some sort - a kind of game plan - it's always been the most morbid failure.
John Malkovich
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.
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
I don't need to be liked.
John Malkovich
I am inspired by the appearance of a bohemian of the new millennium.
John Malkovich
I like design, I like details, to me it is just another form of self-expression.
John Malkovich
It's not a gift of mine, but one given to me, to be able to criticise myself and not be crushed, by myself or by others.
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
I don't lose my temper very often now, and if I do, it's well deserved.
John Malkovich
You have to do things people see or you don't get to do anything.
John Malkovich
Well, I like to have fun at work.
John Malkovich
