More quotes by Kiefer Sutherland
Romania is an interesting place because I think it has been abused, on so many different levels.
Kiefer Sutherland
Were kind of in our own cocoon making it. Every once in a while you stick your head up for a second, and you just cant believe how successful the show has become.
Kiefer Sutherland
I did a play called Throne of Straw when I was 11, at the Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles. It became really clear to me at that point that I enjoyed acting more than any other experience I was having.
Kiefer Sutherland
There are a lot of movies I'd like to throw away. That's not to say that I went in with that attitude. Any film I ever started, I went in with all the hope and best intentions in the world, but some films just don't work.
Kiefer Sutherland
I like chatting with people. If people ask me a direct question, I give them a direct answer and I feel I've always done that with the press.
Kiefer Sutherland
My mother's five foot two and, I'll be honest with you, she's the only person I'm scared of.
Kiefer Sutherland
I had an unbelievable experience on '24'. We shot 198 episodes, and I was as excited about shooting the 198th as I was the first.
Kiefer Sutherland
I think one of the things I was most interested in finding out was how differently we approached our work. And my reality was that we didn't approach it very differently at all, which was funny.
Kiefer Sutherland
My mother was an extraordinary theater actor in Canada, and when I would finish school, I would go to the theater. I would do my homework, we would have dinner there, she would do her play, and then me and my sister would go home. So I grew up in it that way.
Kiefer Sutherland
The father-son thing, that's a separate thing. This film [Forsaken] was not about that. This was a film about two actors wanting to try and tell a story... and taking advantage of the fact that we looked like a father and son.
Kiefer Sutherland
I've had some amazing people in my life. Look at my father - he came from a small fishing village of five hundred people and at six foot four with giant ears and a kind of very odd expression, thought he could be a movie star. So go figure, you know?
Kiefer Sutherland
Youth is an amazing thing: I think back on when we did The Lost Boys, and I didn't think I could do anything wrong.
Kiefer Sutherland
I'm a huge fan of Canadian rock-and-roll. When I was growing up, Rush came out with a record called Hemispheres, and I must have listened to that record for two years straight. Even when I was asleep I had it on. So, yeah, whenever I hear a Rush tune, the first thing I think of is Toronto.
Kiefer Sutherland
My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.
Kiefer Sutherland
Some people think it's because '24' was jump-started by what happened on 9/11. That was never why we made the show. We started production six months prior to 9/11, and we'd already done ten episodes.
Kiefer Sutherland
I consider myself to be a relatively helpful person, and there's an interesting line when hope starts to become the way you actually mask or hide from what's really happening.
Kiefer Sutherland
I didn't grow up with my dad, so it was always very funny to me, and always has been, what an important part DNA plays in one's life.
Kiefer Sutherland
What I ended up doing was kind of crafting an idea for a story, presenting it to a writer - a dear friend of mine, Brad Mirman - and he ended up writing a beautiful script. I should've done that a lot earlier.
Kiefer Sutherland
Theres a confidence that comes from youth and not knowing better. But there comes a point, as an actor, when you do know better, and that is when the fear starts.
Kiefer Sutherland
I didn't realize that television has gone through immense changes and has become very progressive.
Kiefer Sutherland
