Making little videos that you know are going to be on tiny windows is a whole different thing. I don't know what it's going to lead to necessarily, but it's certainly fun.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I don't think action for action's sake is so fun, but when it helps tell the story, I love doing a good fight scene.
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
Your heart has a little empty corner. You won't even know I'm there -- I'll be very quiet.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Darkness is a lot of what art is and certainly in our community a lot of it is people sort of wrestling with their demons.

Real life is not like a movie. Even the best movies, the most rich, fleshed-out movies are not as rich and nuanced as detailed as real life or an actual human being.
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.

If you're going to put yourself above everybody else, you might end up alone.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
In the old days, people would gather around the fire, or they would gather at a tavern, and they'd tell a story. And then, maybe a week later, someone would tell the same story, but with a different twist on it. That's how folk takes evolved.
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
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
That's sort of what I wanted to make fun of a little bit with Don Jon. And I think oftentimes, if you're going to talk about a sort of substantial topic like this, the best way to do it is with a sense of humor.
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
Being politically active is more about doing things, not just standing for some platform or being involved in some political party.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Every director is different. And all the movies are very different, and the characters are very different.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
If you know which way the current is going, you can use it to your advantage.
