I have a pretty eclectic taste in the movies that I like to watch, and also in the movies that I'm inspired to work on.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I'd been an actor my whole life, since I was a kid. And then, I quit for awhile and went to university. When I wanted to start acting again, I couldn't get a job, and that was really depressing. So, I realized, at that time, that I have to take responsibility for my own creativity.

The director is the most important because, ultimately, as an actor, when you watch a movie, it looks like an actor is giving a performance, and they kind of are. But, what's actually happening is that an actor has given a bunch of ingredients over to a director, who then constructs a performance. That's movie-making.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
A man touched me: his hand... my thigh. I touched him too: my fist... his jaw.

Real life is not as simple as it is on a screen. I think real life is actually a lot more beautiful.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
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.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
When you believe that you can do something that's when you can do it.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Everyone has a unique perspective and that's valid. Everyone's perspective is valid. That doesn't mean that everyone has the same degree of skill level as an entertainer, but skill isn't the only important thing. It's also what kind of perspective and feelings you're bringing to it.
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'm definitely not a science nerd, I'll say that. That was not my forte at school.

I think there is something beautiful in reveling in sadness
