More quotes by 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
Your heart has a little empty corner. You won't even know I'm there -- I'll be very quiet.
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
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
If I were to point to the person who's having the greatest impact... I'd point to Elon Musk.
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
Every day I've got to be thankful that I am alive, and you never know - the cliche is, I guess, you could get hit by a bus tomorrow, so you'd better be at peace with whatever you got going at the moment.
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
Comedy takes a very specific technique, specific skills.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
There's something really appealing about the simplicity of black-and-white images.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
You're gone. No mailing address. But I send you letters anyway.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I do call myself a feminist. Absolutely!
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I'd been an actor my whole life, since I was a kid. And then, I quit for awhile and went to university. When I wanted to start acting again, I couldn't get a job, and that was really depressing. So, I realized, at that time, that I have to take responsibility for my own creativity.
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
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 don't blame the people for the fact that so many movies are bad. I think there's a corrupt, perverted, lazy and sloppy attitude that's pervasive in the movie business. The whole entertainment business is kind of crumbling around us.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Real life is not as simple as it is on a screen. I think real life is actually a lot more beautiful.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
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
I was studying for the SAT's and learning lines.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Well, look who I ran into, crowed Coincidence. Please, flirted Fate, this was meant to be.
