More quotes by Kevin Spacey
If I'm sick of me, I can only imagine how other people feel.
Kevin Spacey
Look, I might have lived in England for the last several years but I'm still an American citizen and I have not given up my right to privacy.
Kevin Spacey
What I do is interpret, not create. I may add elements and do something different. That is what is so incredible about theatre. Why do we love it that there are nine Hamletsor six King Lears over two years? We love to watch a different actor attack the same material.
Kevin Spacey
To look in the eyes of audiences and see the kind of naughty glee that they got with being on the inside, the audience becomes your co-conspirators.
Kevin Spacey
Whether its Veep or Homeland or The West Wing - which is a more idealised version of democracy - people are fascinated by politics.
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 can't imagine that anyone in Hollywood is sitting around trying to decide what actor is good or right or qualified for a role and is being denied a role because of their political views. I don't think that's the way Hollywood works. We're not living in an era of blacklisting.
Kevin Spacey
I was terrible in my first play. After that experience, I had to face that I wasnt good enough to play with the big boys. I had to go away and learn, so I worked in regional theater for three years. I even understudied at the Kennedy Center.
Kevin Spacey
The greatest sound in the theater is silence.
Kevin Spacey
If you're lucky enough to have done well, then it's your responsibility to send the elevator back down.
Kevin Spacey
The movies are not my first priority - the theater is.
Kevin Spacey
Essentially, your voice is an instrument its a muscle, and you have to treat it like a muscle, and so you have to work it.
Kevin Spacey
My job as an actor is to serve the writing and help the author get his ideas across.
Kevin Spacey
I think that acting is a very humanizing profession.
Kevin Spacey
It's the kind of democratization of the Internet that has led to the breaking down of barriers into the creative arts.
Kevin Spacey
The characters created cannot just be a mouthpiece for the writer. When you look at a piece of writing, and it's genuine and it doesn't feel like every character is just a mouthpiece for the writer, but that they've been created in such a way that they're expressing an idea that a writer wants to get across, that's when a story succeeds.
Kevin Spacey
I've never heard of a situation where, because somebody had a particular political belief, they didn't get a part. I think it's a bit of a myth.
Kevin Spacey
Theatre is alive and it is now, and then it's gone.
Kevin Spacey
Its interesting to play a politician who gets stuff done.
Kevin Spacey
While the sciences are hugely important, let us not leave behind a childs imagination.
