More quotes by Kevin Costner
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 try to please myself. I don't try to anticipate what people want to see.
Kevin Costner
I didn't realize Toronto was so beautiful. Everywhere you go you see beautiful architecture.
Kevin Costner
I split my time between Santa Barbara and Aspen. I live on a pretty fast horse.

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've had some movies that have been ridiculed, but that's OK with me. I don't feel that really defines me. Should I change who I am to be popular?
Kevin Costner
I'm glad movies aren't going to please everybody, they can't. But what they have to be is recognisable. I don't equate myself with a master painter, but I think you can recognise my films.
Kevin Costner
You have to try to dismiss the loudness of cynicism. It's certainly going to come.
Kevin Costner
I think religion is a funny thing because, when you see somebody who can really break it down, sometimes it feels foolish what you believe.
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
Broken people say awful things and do incredibly absurd things.
Kevin Costner
You know, what if everybody's wrong in life? And so you have to live your life yourself.
Kevin Costner
My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world.
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
One person doesn't have to shoulder all the responsibility for why a film does or doesn't do well.
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 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 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 don't have a seller's remorse about how I've lived. I am cognizant of what I have done, and any of us could maybe draw the line better. But I've tried to live pretty fearlessly.
Kevin Costner
