The hardest gig there is in entertainment is to be the lead in an hour show, especially if it's a show that's blood and guts and fighting. It's rough. I love to work, but to do something different is really exciting.

More quotes by Kevin Bacon
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.
Kevin Bacon
If you're an actor, even a successful one, you're still waiting for the phone to ring.
Kevin Bacon
I do better on the first three takes I won't be better at 20 takes.
Kevin Bacon
Even the people that support Bush aren't happy with the way things are going in Iraq.
Kevin Bacon
Ninety-five percent of celebrity is good.
Kevin Bacon
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.
Kevin Bacon
Clint Eastwood has always been a hero.
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 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
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.
Kevin Bacon
I've been in silly movies and romantic movies and historic movies.
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 didn't get into this so I could talk about my work, my movies. You become an actor to act.
Kevin Bacon
Some people have therapy, some people are alcoholics or they're in AA. Some people jump out of planes on weekends or find ways to release this kind of thing. And for me, it's acting. I find acting very therapeutic for whatever it is.
Kevin Bacon
There are two types of actors: those who say they don't want to be famous and those who are liars.
Kevin Bacon
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.
Kevin Bacon
I always wanted, and still aspire, to be something more than just one thing, just one performance.
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
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.
Kevin Bacon
Obviously, my perception of the world is one where humans are a threat to our survival.
