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.

More quotes by Kiefer Sutherland
The writers keep managing to turn the show in on itself, coming up with something that's well thought-out and miraculous.
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
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
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
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
Westerns just thematically, as a genre, have kind of a few tent poles that I really admire, and one of them is this perception that life was simpler back then. And with that perception goes that people were good or people were bad. You survived by your strengths or you perished by your weaknesses.
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
If you're going to break cinema, film, and movies apart, very rarely to you get the opportunity to even think that you've been a part of cinema.
Kiefer Sutherland
There are two things that Jack Bauer never does. Show mercy, and go to the bathroom.
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 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
Isn't it funny? You hear a phone ring and it could be anybody. But, a ringing phone has to be answered doesn't it?
Kiefer Sutherland
There's a confidence that comes from youth and not knowing better.
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
Romania is an interesting place because I think it has been abused, on so many different levels.
Kiefer Sutherland
My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.
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 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
When we shoot 24, there are so many things I have to worry about, from the script to technical things to my performance, that I dont have a second to be bored or take anything for granted. We produce 24 hours of film a season, which is like making 12 movies.
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.
