More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors.
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
You usually get one or the other, you get someone who knows how to tell a story but they don't necessarily know about light and camera and rhythm, or you get someone who can make beautiful images but they can't necessarily tell a great story. He does both and I think he's going to be one of the film-makers that our time is remembered for.
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
Celebrity doesn't have anything to do with art or craft. It's about being rich and thinking that you're better than everybody else.

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
We’re all beautiful. We all deserve attention.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I think acting is totally conducive to being a little kid, because kids are less inhibited and use their imagination.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I do call myself a feminist. Absolutely!
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.'
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.
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 think the way the media is going to work in the future is less something that the population consumes and more something that the population creates.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I know how to make an audience laugh, 'cause I grew up on Third Rock from the Sun, week after week in front of audiences, making them laugh.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
eating is the sleeping of being awake.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
There's a long, long history of women suffering abuse, injustice, and not having the same opportunities as men, and I think that's been very detrimental to the human race as a whole.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
