I don't mind gearing my life towards privacy. It's my nature.
John Travolta
Image
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.

I think my friend Tom Hanks knows me. He understands me very well. He’s always had a sort of parental feeling toward me. He knows I’m a big mush ball, which is just part of my personality.

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.

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.

Even if the script's well written there's something about the life of an improvisation that resonates better than a written word, sometimes.

The good and wonderful thing about my whole career is that I've always felt that the audience, if I do it well, will track wherever I go, whether it's President or a lawyer or bad guy or good. All I have to do is execute the material enough where they buy into it. I've had the great luxury of the audiences accepting that.

I will direct one day, but I have a feeling that it will be very limited.
John Travolta
Image
I don't want to create controversy I just have an opinion on things, and there is nothing wrong with stating your opinion if you are asked. Everyone wants that right, and because you are famous doesn't mean you have less of a right.
John Travolta
Image
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
Image
I love being regarded as a sex symbol, but I can't take it too seriously.

Everything is on its way to somewhere.

Christopher Walken was probably the most experienced dancing partner I've had in movies, because he has the same background as I do. He's from theatre, Broadway and off-Broadway, and we both shared that.

It's easier to be responsible for the decisions that you've made yourself than for the ones that other people have made for you.

Dancing's part of my soul. I enjoy it, it makes people happy, and it makes me happy.
John Travolta

I feel very fortunate for audiences to have been so gracious as to allow me to do pretty much any role that I felt I could do. They let me play a president. They let me play a lawyer. They let me play a hit man. They let me play a father. They let me play Howard Saint.
