Audiences trust Westerns when you hit the right tone. I think they're not in vogue, but they will always be in vogue when you hit the right note.
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.
Kevin Costner
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.
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
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
We really don't rest if we think our kids are drifting, or if we think they don't have the right work ethic. It drives us crazy. Because we ultimately want them to succeed and, until they do, we feel in some way that something is not complete.
Kevin Costner
If you don't understand your limitations you won't achieve much in your life.
Kevin Costner
Sometimes it takes a partner to say, What is it you want? because I think we operate in life and sometimes we don't know. We're all in some kind of maze going after the cheese at the end, and we get it and we go, What is it that we want?
Kevin Costner
I'm in a position where whatever I do, I can get my head handed to me. I'm in a position to fail because there is a whole group of people out there who want me to fail. It's a weird vibe.
Kevin Costner
I'm a pretty convenient foil for a lot of people.
Kevin Costner
It was an experience of a lifetime to sit only a few feet away from him [Castro] and watch him relive an experience he lived as a very young man.
Kevin Costner
We stand our best chance of leaving a legacy to those who want to learn, our children, by standing firm. In matters of style, hey, swing with the stream. But in matters of principle, you need to stand like a rock.
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
The kind of love that these young men have and the respect that they have for their fathers, I don't see that as much in America as you see in the Latino community, and it's really something to behold.
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
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 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 dream of big things. I work for the small things. If you're going to dream, you might as well dream big. A lot of that came from my mother. She was adamant about the work ethic---about how you can't just dream things.
Kevin Costner
I wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
Kevin Costner
If you want to make a great sports movie, don't put too much sports in it. It's the backdrop. It's the environment.
