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.

More quotes by 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
You can be as you choose to be. It's an act of discipline sometimes, but it can be done.
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
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
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
When I see my children, and when I see the people who value me, I know how lucky I am.
Kevin Costner
I try to please myself. I don't try to anticipate what people want to see.
Kevin Costner
My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world. My children look at me for a question and then they quickly look away because they know that I'm not going to know how to make Super Mario or do anything.
Kevin Costner
Conventional wisdom is so scary because what if everybody's wrong?
Kevin Costner
A good idea is something like an emotion, you just can't keep it in.
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
I like being around people that mean what they say.
Kevin Costner
What is it you want? That's a question that we all get posed sometimes internally and sometimes externally.
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
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 wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
Kevin Costner
I think if you want to make a good sports movie, you've got to cut down on the sports. You have to make it about people. You can't try to impress people with your knowledge and the X and O's and all the details and the technicalities.
Kevin Costner
When a defining moment comes along, you define the moment, or the moment defines you.
Kevin Costner
Life's better when it's fun. Boy, that's deep, isn't it?
Kevin Costner
One person doesn't have to shoulder all the responsibility for why a film does or doesn't do well.
