More quotes by 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
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
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 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
Some days I'm in better control and can navigate my way through stuff, and other days, not so much.
Kiefer Sutherland
I think just in general there's a bunch of films that mattered to me that didn't reach their potential, and on some level you have to assume responsibility for that. And I think over the years that gets difficult.
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
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
I think the father-son dynamic is interesting. I don't have a male friend who hasn't had some kind of conflict with their dad, and I don't have a male friend who hasn't had some kind of conflict with their son.
Kiefer Sutherland
I remember being really grateful that David Lynch had actually even thought of casting me, because I was a huge fan of his.
Kiefer Sutherland
I've always traveled with a picture of my daughter from 1989, her kindergarten school picture, that has 'I love you, Daddy' written on it. She's always made fun of me because I never changed that picture out. It's like my resistance to her getting older. It was the first thing she'd ever written to me and it means the world to me.
Kiefer Sutherland
I feel extraordinarily peaceful when I'm watching the sun set.
Kiefer Sutherland
There's a confidence that comes from youth and not knowing better.
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
I do believe very strongly that all of us and all of the other things in the context of our planet with Mother Nature, all of these things absolutely have a profound effect.
Kiefer Sutherland
People respond to a guy who is trapped and succeeds on some level and fails on another.
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 couldn't see my father's films because they were restricted and we didn't have videos or DVDs back then.
Kiefer Sutherland
My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.
Kiefer Sutherland
I think the most attractive thing is a sense of humour. If someone can make you laugh, you've gotten a lot out of the way.
