Quote

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.

I think there is a puritanical wind that is blowing. I have never seen such a lack of separation between church and state in America, I don’t believe in God, but if I did I would say that sex is a Godgiven right. Otherwise it’s the end of our species.

Image
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
Image
I'll be honest with you. My kids don't watch my movies and never have. I can maybe name a film one hand that they've seen, actually, all the way through.

I'd always tried not to worry about the size of the role or the size of the film.

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.

I don't watch the movies I make, so I haven't seen 'Footloose' since it came out. You see this young, hungry actor, it's pretty fun. I was the only one they screen tested. It was an attempt by the director and producer to talk the head of the studio into hiring me because they didn't want me.

There are two types of actors: those who say they don't want to be famous and those who are liars.

L.A. kind of scares me.

I like directing. It takes a lot out of you, but I'd like to do it again - I just have to find a story I want to tell.

Image
As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.

Image
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.

Clint Eastwood has always been a hero.
Kevin Bacon
Image
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
Image
I didn't get into this so I could talk about my work, my movies. You become an actor to act.

Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.

There's something therapeutic about nudity ... Take away the Gucci or Levi's and we're all the same.

It does get old to have to always be a monkey in a zoo. I don't know what it's like any more to be anonymous.
Kevin Bacon
Image
After so many years it's embarrassing to admit that I don't honestly know how much I want to be directed.
Kevin Bacon
Image
I'm very comfortable being married to an extremely strong, opinionated, and driven woman. But I also sit at the head of the table. I have both of those sides to me.
Kevin Bacon
Image
I try to show compassion to people I come into contact with and try to put good out, as much good as I can. But that's my life that's not my work. With my work, my job is to walk in another man's shoes.
