More quotes by Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Every director is different. And all the movies are very different, and the characters are very different.
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
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 was such a big Dustin Hoffman fan when I was young.
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
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
If you know which way the current is going, you can use it to your advantage.
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
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

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The sun is such a lonely star. Whenever he comes out to see his friends, they all disappear.

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
