More quotes by Kevin Costner
I didn't realize Toronto was so beautiful. Everywhere you go you see beautiful architecture.
Kevin Costner
Money isn't a major motivating force in my life. Nor is my profession. There are other things that I care more about than being an actor.
Kevin Costner
I like being around people that mean what they say.
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 don't think I ever take huge risks, though I'm not scared of doing so.
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
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'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
When you start searching for your name, you might be thrilled with what a lot of people say and it just takes one person. And it can hurt your feelings, but I have been aware of the fan bases and stuff like that and realize how deeply involved they are.
Kevin Costner
I think there's true drama in the formation of everything that we know and are standing on the shoulders of.
Kevin Costner
I try to please myself. I don't try to anticipate what people want to see.
Kevin Costner
Broken people say awful things and do incredibly absurd things.
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
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
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
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.
Kevin Costner
Field of Dreams is probably our generation's It's A Wonderful Life.
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.
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
