More quotes by Kevin Spacey
If youre not concerned about maintaining an image, you can pursue roads that another actor might not take.
Kevin Spacey
There are times when you do a play when you are living in the character over a two-and-a-half-hour period or longer, and you come to the end of the night, and you can feel like you were hit by a truck.
Kevin Spacey
We have learned the lesson that the music industry didn't learn. Give people what they want, when they want it, in the form they want it in, at a reasonable price - and they'll more likely pay for it rather than steal it.
Kevin Spacey
I always thought that, in a way, you want your Superman to be a total unknown.
Kevin Spacey
I don't want to show deleted scenes. I don't like an audience looking at what the movie might have been - if it's in the movie, it's in the movie.
Kevin Spacey
At the end of the day, storytelling is actually very simple in its origin as long as there are people who want to tell stories and there are people who want to hear them.
Kevin Spacey
You risk working with this director, you risk making this movie, you risk working with another actor you don't know. It makes your heart beat faster. And it keeps you interested.
Kevin Spacey
I feel it's a responsibility for anyone who breaks through a certain ceiling... to send the elevator back down and give others a helpful lift.
Kevin Spacey
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was making us believe that he's not real.
Kevin Spacey
It takes stamina to get up like an athlete every single night, seven to eight performances a week, 20 weeks in a row. And there are many young performers who only learn their craft in the two minute bits it takes to film a scene. You never learn the arc of storytelling, the arc of a character that way.
Kevin Spacey
I certainly identify with the role of mentor and, to some degree, maybe teacher. I do a lot of work with kids at the Old Vic.
Kevin Spacey
The control is shifting because of the democratisation of the internet. My industry is very good at building walls to stop people getting in.
Kevin Spacey
Its a really wonderful thing to focus your life on something other than your own personal career and ambition.
Kevin Spacey
Why not sit around a Beverly Hills pool collecting residual cheques? That is not the kind of life I want.
Kevin Spacey
Secondarily, I think films that are driven by music also terrify studios.
Kevin Spacey
I dont categorize characters into one syllable. These are fully-rounded characters that I dont judge I just play them.
Kevin Spacey
Over the years, I've been trying to build a relationship with an audience. I've tried to maintain as much of a low profile as I could so that those characters would emerge and their relationship with audiences would be protected.
Kevin Spacey
Meeting the person you are going to be playing is very unique.
Kevin Spacey
Theres nothing like standing in a place and wanting nothing so much as to change but simply not being able to.
Kevin Spacey
Netflix did it right and focused on all the things that have replaced the dumb, raw numbers of the Nielsen world - they embraced targeted marketing and 'brand' as a virtue higher than ratings.
