My dad was an architect, and he wasn't a rich guy, but in our little world in Philadelphia he was famous. He loved to see his picture in the paper. I wanted to be more famous than him.

More quotes by Kevin Bacon
I'd always tried not to worry about the size of the role or the size of the film.
Kevin Bacon
I'd love to be a pop idol. Of course, my groupies are now between 40 and 50.
Kevin Bacon
I don't really worry so much about image. I try to just live my own life, my personal life, to my own sense of morality. In terms of the kinds of characters that I play, well, they could be anything.
Kevin Bacon
I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don't think that's only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings.
Kevin Bacon
You have to keep the fights clean and the sex dirty.
Kevin Bacon
After so many years it's embarrassing to admit that I don't honestly know how much I want to be directed.
Kevin Bacon
I've made three studio albums and one live one with my brother. It's melodic singer-songwriter acoustic-rock music.
Kevin Bacon
Doing the press, it's part of my job, so I do it with a smile on my face, but I'm not comfortable in the hot seat.
Kevin Bacon
Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.
Kevin Bacon
You have to have something in your life that's more important than the work. People don't really like to admit that. I think that you have to find something else. I don't know what it is. Is it yoga or God or politics? For me it's just family.
Kevin Bacon
Even the people that support Bush aren't happy with the way things are going in Iraq.
Kevin Bacon
I think one of the most pervasive evils in this world is greed and acquiring money for money's sake. Once you have six houses and a plane, it's just about a number. It's never been anything I understood.
Kevin Bacon
I always wanted, and still aspire, to be something more than just one thing, just one performance.
Kevin Bacon
I don't read reviews. I haven't read them for probably 30 years. I can't. When they're bad, they're really rough, and when they're good, they're not good enough. You can always find something to stress over.
Kevin Bacon
Ninety-five percent of celebrity is good.
Kevin Bacon
I think we all have a lot of darkness in our bellies. As an actor, the challenge of tapping into that, reaching down into that sadness or anger, is very therapeutic.
Kevin Bacon
Obviously, my perception of the world is one where humans are a threat to our survival.
Kevin Bacon
I don't have to do the lead. If I dig a part, I'll do it.
Kevin Bacon
I didn't get into this so I could talk about my work, my movies. You become an actor to act.
Kevin Bacon
I think of being an actor as kind of a young man's gig. It's emasculating, in a way, people messing with you and putting make-up on you and telling you when to wake up and when to go to sleep, holding your hand to cross the street. I can do it up to a certain point, and then I start to feel like a puppet.
Kevin Bacon
