More quotes by John Travolta
I had a bike the first time I moved to L.A. I had a Honda and I got around on that. But I'd never ridden Harleys.
John Travolta
You can't control the quality of projects that are coming to you, so if you get several in a row that are quality, you take them.
John Travolta
Princess Diana was a nice dancer because she had confidence. In fact, when we danced together she started to lead, and I looked her in eye and went, 'No, you have to let me lead.' So I grabbed her around the waist and we were off to the races.
John Travolta
Every day my mother had tea. My dad has his ritual cigar. They had their evening cocktail. Those rituals were done nicely, with flair and feeling.
John Travolta
I grew up, in my childhood, with some of the greatest women performers, on stage and on screen, and even my family - my mother and my sisters. So I was very busy watching women, as a child! I have a lot of memories of great women performers
John Travolta
As you get older, you have to force yourself to have new dreams. For instance, I've been flying for 37 years, but now teaching others to fly is interesting for me. Sometimes you have to find new angles on life to keep you interested, like sharing successes and inspiring and helping others.
John Travolta
Life is overwhelming. Life is not easy. Life is tough and you need something that really works and helps you actually, not promises to help you, then fail.
John Travolta
After nine or 10 years of being interviewed, you start wanting to team up with the reporter and get the job done.
John Travolta
I told my manager, 'If we can't do the things now that we want to do, what good is the power?... Let's test it and try to get the things done that we believe in.'
John Travolta
I learned early on that there are certain things you can control in the press, and things you cannot.
John Travolta
I actually do like playing off-beat people. I think it's more fun.
John Travolta
Everything is on its way to somewhere.
John Travolta
I've always thought of, of a relationship with an actor to an audience as a marriage, you know. And a story, you know. And there are ups and downs, and you work through them, and you work with them.
John Travolta
A lot of actors never talk to other actors about how they're doing things, or why. I think it's important to share the way you're thinking.
John Travolta
In my own life if I knew I was going to pass away I'd love to sit down and resolve every issue so I could go peacefully.
John Travolta
I'm a jet jockey and I've always escaped ever since I was a kid. I've always been a weekend type runaway person. Work hard, play hard type thing. It's not been a mid-life thing at all, it's been a habit because I think it changes your environment and how you feel even if it's for the day. It's a good thing.
John Travolta
For a while, I was saying 'no' way too often. I turned down 'An Officer and A Gentleman,' 'Splash' and 'Midnight Express.' I could name you tons more. I would go off and experience life instead of working - I was learning to fly jets, went on an African safari, sailed the Caribbean - which wasn't necessarily bad.
John Travolta
Having kids is something you can't always do. Kids are like lightning. You grab that lightning when you can get it.
John Travolta
I think, for sure, 'Saturday Night Fever' and 'Pulp Fiction' were kind of bookends for - or the pillars of - my career.
John Travolta
I've always slightly regretted not taking up Chicago.
John Travolta
