Kevin Costner
Great stories don't often make great movies. Its' a crafted art form.
Kevin Costner
One person doesn't have to shoulder all the responsibility for why a film does or doesn't do well.
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 like being around people that mean what they say.
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.

Broken people say awful things and do incredibly absurd 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.

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 can be as you choose to be. It's an act of discipline sometimes, but it can be done.
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
I'm a pretty convenient foil for a lot of people.
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
In America, politicians do whatever to get re-elected, and a lot of decisions that were being made at that time by Kennedy were certain not to get him re-elected.
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'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
You have to try to dismiss the loudness of cynicism. It's certainly going to come.
Kevin Costner
If you don't understand your limitations you won't achieve much in your life.
