More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Making checklists of things you're looking for in a person is the numero uno thing you can do to guarantee you'll be alone forever.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
We’re all beautiful. We all deserve attention.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
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.

If you do or don't like something it's because of that thing and not because it has the right politics behind them or the right company or the right connections. It's really just about the thing itself.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Why am I doing the work I'm doing? Why am I friends with this person? Am I living the best life I possibly can? Questions are often looked upon as questions of doubt but I don't see it that way at all. I question things to stay present, to make sure I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Supermarket tabloids and celebrity gossip shows are not just innocently shallow entertainment, but a fundamental part of a much larger movement that involves apathy, greed and hierarchy.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The term 'popular culture' always used to mean what the people do - pop songs, folk songs, music in general used to live because people would sing these songs and tell these stories together. Then all of these new technologies came out and it became the work of professionals.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
There's something really appealing about the simplicity of black-and-white images.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The spiral in a snail's shell is the same mathematically as the spiral in the Milky Way galaxy, and it's also the same mathematically as the spirals in our DNA. It's the same ratio that you'll find in very basic music that transcends cultures all over the world.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Most of what Hollywood puts out is crap anyway.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
eating is the sleeping of being awake.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
When you believe that you can do something that's when you can do it.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I think there is something beautiful in reveling in sadness
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Normally you read a screenplay - and I read a lot of them - and the characters don't feel like people. They feel like plot devices or cliches or stereotypes.
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
The thing about Occupy is that the sentiment the movement embodies is timeless: Don't be greedy, share.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I collect flickering stars in old pickling jars, poking holes in the lids so they can breathe.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
