You have to make entertaining movies. But like a good meal, it's nice to have a little food for thought after you walk out of the theater rather than just wiling away a couple of hours.

More quotes by Michael Douglas
A fool and his money are lucky enough to get together in the first place.
Michael Douglas
I'm not a big filmophile. I don't watch movies a lot for a hobby. I spend all my time watching sporting events. Because, opposed to movies, you can never tell how they're going to end.
Michael Douglas
I thought I could never be the actor Dad was, so I avoided it for a while.
Michael Douglas
Wherever arms flow, violence follows. Bullets replace ballots as the solution to political disputes.
Michael Douglas
We must unite to make nuclear weapons a horror of the past.
Michael Douglas
Being single is pretty good. It's a nice sense of irresponsibility.
Michael Douglas
A lot of actors get concerned about their own image, even going so far as to rewrite a movie to best serve that image. All I want to do is be in good movies.
Michael Douglas
That's why I'm such a big sports fan, with sports you can never guess what's gonna happen. Most movies you get halfway through and you can kind of guess the ending.
Michael Douglas
When I look at myself as a younger actor, I see what a tight ass I was. I had a pretty big shadow because of my father and the comparisons. I was self-conscious about that. Now I realize there was nothing to be worried about.
Michael Douglas
It's a phenomenon that I see with young actors - a lot of American speaking parts going to British actors.
Michael Douglas
There was a lot of tabloid journalism about my supposed sex addiction. Bullshit. It's all bullshit. I mean, come on, I never pretended to be a saint. But give me a break.
Michael Douglas
For an actor, its great fun to play one of these hungry white sharks. Audiences love to hate them.
Michael Douglas
I'm questioning it. We're trying to get a lot of money for health and education and I'm wondering... You look at these gangs, and I look back at Prohibition. When we didn't allow alcohol, what did we have? We had gangs. We had big gangs. It's something that needs to be discussed a little more. It's an economic issue and a violence issue.
Michael Douglas
I am a Jew. Those are four words of pride. My Jewishness is as deep as my genes.
Michael Douglas
Even when you're acting with a producing hat, when you're in every scene, you're really conscious of trying to make everybody as good as they are, because ultimately you're trying to make the best movie possible.
Michael Douglas
What's worth doing is worth doing for money.
Michael Douglas
Money itself isn’t lost or made. It’s simply transferred from one perception to another.
Michael Douglas
The one thing that men and women have in common - they both like the company of men.
Michael Douglas
Cancer did not bring me to my knees, it brought me to my feet.
Michael Douglas
The hardest thing about sex scenes is that everybody is a judge. I don't know the last time you murdered somebody or blew anyone's brains out, but everyone has had sex and probably this morning, which means everyone has an opinion on how it should be done.
