More quotes by John Malkovich
I don't need to be liked.
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'm a little bit of a fabric lunatic.
John Malkovich
I'm supposed to be a pretty good theater actor.
John Malkovich
If you don't interfere with me, I'll always do something really good.
John Malkovich
I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
John Malkovich
With acting it's your neck up there in the end. And if you think the director can't help you it's one thing. But if you feel they're reining you in when they need to be giving you some rope, or vice versa, then I just don't tolerate that.
John Malkovich

John Malkovich
You have to play your characters, not like them.

John Malkovich
I never wanted to be with someone who just hung around the house.
John Malkovich
It's not a field, I think, for people who need to have success every day: if you can't live with a nightly sort of disaster, you should get out. I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that the ghosts you chase you never catch.
John Malkovich
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
John Malkovich
I don't really go through a process, it goes through me.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.
John Malkovich
