More quotes by 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
There's a reason screens are only this thick.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.
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
I go around the world, working with all kinds of people who I love.
John Malkovich
Well, I like to have fun at work.
John Malkovich
You can be a mason and build 50 buildings, but it doesn't mean you can design one.
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
I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.
John Malkovich
I don't lose my temper very often now, and if I do, it's well deserved.
John Malkovich
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.
John Malkovich
I don't really go through a process, it goes through me.
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
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
I don't want a trillion-dollar empire to run.
John Malkovich
Some directors expect you to do everything write, be producer, psychiatrist. Some just want you to die in a tragic accident during the shooting so they can get the insurance.
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 like things too overstated in the cut or too perfect.
John Malkovich
I like design, I like details, to me it is just another form of self-expression.
John Malkovich
As an actor there are no drawbacks.
John Malkovich
