More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I collect flickering stars in old pickling jars, poking holes in the lids so they can breathe.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Music belongs to everybody. Having a little clique of the industry tell us what our culture is... I don't think that's healthy. And the Internet is helping us get away from that.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I don't blame the people for the fact that so many movies are bad. I think there's a corrupt, perverted, lazy and sloppy attitude that's pervasive in the movie business. The whole entertainment business is kind of crumbling around us.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I'm definitely not a science nerd, I'll say that. That was not my forte at school.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
If you know which way the current is going, you can use it to your advantage.

For context, the budget of Don Jon is about half the budget of (500) Days of Summer. And (500) Days of Summer is about a third of the budget of the lowest-budget movies produced at a major studio.

There seems to be a notion in Hollywood that if you want to make money, you have to sacrifice doing good work with integrity. And I think that's bullshit. I think that's an excuse, and it's what people say who are scared that they can't do good work.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
If the inspiration is genuine and it's coming from the right place, that's what I like and want to be a part of.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I didn't want to just work within Hollywood when I started a production company. I wanted to be able to collaborate with great artists from all over the world.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
My favorite kinds of movies are the ones that start a conversation.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
When you become a ghost feel free to haunt me.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I know how to make an audience laugh, 'cause I grew up on Third Rock from the Sun, week after week in front of audiences, making them laugh.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The traditions of Hollywood are grand and great and are going to survive forever, in a way. But they're not going to be the only way for much longer. The technology is such now that you don't have to have millions of dollars to make a movie. You can make one with a computer.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The thing about Occupy is that the sentiment the movement embodies is timeless: Don't be greedy, share.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I have an eclectic taste in stuff whether it be movies or music or books or food or anything. Variety is interesting.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
But I would encourage anyone who has a crush on my character to watch it again and examine how selfish he is.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
We can be anybody we wanna be.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Hollywood can be an exclusive place. Who gets to be on TV, or who gets to make TV can be a small clique of an industry. There's so many talented, skilled people, all over the world, that might not have the connections or the opportunities to work in TV.
