More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The element of surprise wasn't allowed near the Periodic Table.
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
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
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
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
Media used to be one way. Everyone else in the world just had to listen. Now the internet is allowing what used to be a monologue to become a dialogue. I think that's healthy.
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
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
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
If you're going to put yourself above everybody else, you might end up alone.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
When I was a teenager I loved acting, but I really just loved it for myself. I didn't like the fact that anyone else saw the work I was doing
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Most scripts are bad. I read a lot of them.
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
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.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I collect flickering stars in old pickling jars, poking holes in the lids so they can breathe.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The Internet is allowing us to get back to what's really more natural, which is that storytelling is a shared thing. It's our natural way to be communal.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I want to keep working with people that care about what they're doing. It seems obvious, but it's not. It's sometimes hard to keep on that track.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Every director is different. And all the movies are very different, and the characters are very different.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Even today, in our progressive times, in most movies that come out, the men have to have biceps and the women have to be thin or something.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
We’re all beautiful. We all deserve attention.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
