More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I think there is something beautiful in reveling in sadness
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
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
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
I've always paid a lot of attention to the way that different kinds of media affect how we see the world, probably because I've been an actor since I was a little kid.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt

A lot of the motivation for doing the 'Make 'Em Laugh' on SNL was because I had just finished shooting 'Inception,' where there were zero-gravity scenes and I got into really good shape and was training and did all these stunts. Coming off of that, that instilled me with the confidence to do 'Make 'Em Laugh.'

I've always found it sort of hilarious, and occasionally horrifying, how these images [in mass media] impact us, and especially when it comes to love and sex and relationships, I think we sometimes develop unrealistic expectations.
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
When I was a teenager, if anyone recognized me for anything I did, it would ruin my day. I couldn't handle it. It was some sort of neurotic phobia. I guess I was paranoid that people would treat me differently, or in an unfair way, because of my job.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I think we all have a tendency to feel like, Well, what can I do? I can't influence the government or politics in my country.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I just love to act. It's my favorite thing to do in the world, and what keeps it interesting, to me, is the creative challenge. So, different kinds of characters, that's what I just love to do.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I'm tired of being tired of being tired of being.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
This movie [Don Jon] played at Sundance and South by Southwest and Berlin. And it just played - well...by the time it played at Toronto recently, it was already done. But getting to watch it with a thousand people is hugely informative.
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
I think Hollywood, as it's been, will have to change because the model of Hollywood is we'll make this content, and you guys buy it, but I don't think that's the future.
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
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
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
I think acting is totally conducive to being a little kid, because kids are less inhibited and use their imagination.
