More quotes by 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
You can be as you choose to be. It's an act of discipline sometimes, but it can be done.
Kevin Costner
You have to decide if you're going to wilt like a daisy or if you're just going to go forward and live the life that you've been granted.
Kevin Costner
I wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
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 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
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 don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances, but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched.
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've always been distracted when somebody is coming after me and saying, You're the only person who can play this part.
Kevin Costner
What is it you want? That's a question that we all get posed sometimes internally and sometimes externally.
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 think there are good men and women in all decades. We've grown cynical. And look at what we do to all our heroes: Churchill, FDR, Kennedy, they all had affairs. But heroic things happen every day.
Kevin Costner
You know, what if everybody's wrong in life? And so you have to live your life yourself.
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
I think one of the first things to go as people's lives start to go down is their dreams. Dreams should be the last thing to go - dreams are the things you go down with. If you're left clinging to a piece of driftwood in the middle of the ocean, I'd put on it the word dreams.
Kevin Costner
When I played Robin Hood, I knew the great role was Alan Rickman's and it didn't bother me. I always think that leading actors should be called the best supporting actors.
Kevin Costner
I'm a pretty convenient foil for a lot of people.
Kevin Costner
I think it's hard for people to suspend the era they live in and understand the decisions that had to be made often during the western frontier era were life and death. You had to be resourceful and on your feet to try to figure out somebody. You didn't have the benefit of knowing who somebody was.
