More quotes by 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.
John Malkovich
You have to play your characters, not like them.
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
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
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
I always wanted to be fashionable.
John Malkovich
I can see how, given a certain degree of sensitivities, proclivities and rage, I could have ended up differently.
John Malkovich
I'm not a control maniac.
John Malkovich

John Malkovich
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
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
In New York in the Forties or Fifties, everybody's in a suit, an overcoat and a hat.
John Malkovich
It's funny - people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and THEY go to CHURCH.
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 only have two rules for my newly born daughter: she will dress well and never have sex.
John Malkovich
I'm supposed to be a pretty good theater actor.
John Malkovich
Even if you do succeed most people wouldn't notice anyway.
John Malkovich
I still have a temper, I suppose.
John Malkovich
I don't want to be boring. But that's not always easy.
John Malkovich
