If you're going to tear down a hero, you should never forget that you're tearing down someone else's hero. You're tearing down somebody else's son. You might have to face her one day.

More quotes by Kevin Costner
I work for the public, for the people who are paying to go to the cinema, rather than for the critics.
Kevin Costner
I don't read as much as I'd like. I've been writing a lot. I've been doing a lot of music, but I don't read as much as I should. I just don't.
Kevin Costner
I've been around where I knew other actors were going to steal the scene, and I don't compete with them.
Kevin Costner
You have to pick the stories that you want to be involved with and the end game is you'd like to be a part of a hit. But I think your moral obligation is to follow your own heart.
Kevin Costner
I like being around people that mean what they say.
Kevin Costner
I always thought the leading actor should be the best supporting actor, because you're the only person that can help every other actor on the set.
Kevin Costner
If you think of 'Liberty Valance' or 'The Searchers,' there are moments in there that you'll never, ever forget... And it does not matter what century you are from.
Kevin Costner
We recognize ourselves in Westerns, ... I believe the Western can orchestrate moments around reality. The reality can be as entertaining to us as the lie.
Kevin Costner
There's a moment in time where kids really don't want to hear anything from their parents.
Kevin Costner
Broken people say awful things and do incredibly absurd things.
Kevin Costner
There's actually a big difference between story and character. A great story doesn't make a great movie. A great script, which defines its moments and characters can become a great movie. You can make a movie that makes a lot of money and it may or may not have great story or great characters.
Kevin Costner
I think these movies are as much for people of that time as for people who weren't born. For people who weren't born, they see how leaders must act under a crisis situation, not trying to be re-elected or not trying to check polls, that they go from their gut check.
Kevin Costner
I don't think I'd have been as good as Bruce was. He was a better JFK than I would have been.
Kevin Costner
What is it you want? That's a question that we all get posed sometimes internally and sometimes externally.
Kevin Costner
I think I'm a pretty right down the middle guy. I just think that's kind of who I am. I'm not afraid of my own journey.
Kevin Costner
I'm a 'what if' person. I have always felt that failure was a completely underrated experience. I have taken blows. I have had high moments. But I don't think the blows have ever hardened me. My enthusiasms are still big.
Kevin Costner
I think that you try to raise the bar on whatever you do because you know, in this day of having to deal with a lot of reality TV, people say that scripted programming is dying, so you have to try to create something that can live in people's minds, long after they see it.
Kevin Costner
You just do the things that you love and see if other people can like them too.
Kevin Costner
You can spend your life trying to be popular, and that's a tricky business. You can just try to be true to yourself.
Kevin Costner
I've been evolving in my stunt career Stunts have always had their place, and I have to measure them now. I've done things where, if I make a mistake, I could die. You really need to look at each thing. That usually is a mechanical failure. So, I have gone from doing everything, to listening and saying, Maybe I shouldn't do this.
