More quotes by Kevin Costner
I deal with pressure. I have a tendency to probably be at my best under pressure.
Kevin Costner
You know, what if everybody's wrong in life? And so you have to live your life yourself.
Kevin Costner
If it's going to be wrecked, I want to make sure I wreck it.
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 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
It sounds vain, but I could probably make a difference for almost everyone I ever met if I chose to involve myself with them either professionally or personally.
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
I wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
Kevin Costner
My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world.
Kevin Costner
I want to live forever, and I know I won't. I'm not afraid of dying. I'm only afraid of one thing: not being able to raise my kids.
Kevin Costner
I like being around people that mean what they say.
Kevin Costner
We really don't rest if we think our kids are drifting, or if we think they don't have the right work ethic. It drives us crazy. Because we ultimately want them to succeed and, until they do, we feel in some way that something is not complete.
Kevin Costner
Great stories don't often make great movies. Its' a crafted art form.
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 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
When a defining moment comes along, you define the moment, or the moment defines you.
Kevin Costner
If you don't understand your limitations you won't achieve much in your life.
Kevin Costner
There's a moment in time where kids really don't want to hear anything from their parents.
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 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
