More quotes by Mickey Rourke
Being out of work for 13 to 15 years is no walk in the park.
Mickey Rourke
I trained like an animal, but the thing is focus and concentration. When the bell rings it's like when the little red light goes on over the camera. And I can usually nail my lines on the first or second take because I'm right there.
Mickey Rourke
It's the formulaic studio movies the make money, and when they do, the actors in them are automatically movie stars.
Mickey Rourke
A couple of guys won Academy Awards for the things that I turned down. Today, after coming to terms with everything, after being in therapy for a long time-there are areas where I will compromise.
Mickey Rourke
Usually if you read a screenplay, no matter who's writing it, the bad guy is always written as a one-dimensional bad guy.
Mickey Rourke
I did think for many, many years that because of my ability I could beat the system. And I was wrong.
Mickey Rourke
I don't mind getting punched in the nose by a guy standing in front of me. It's getting stabbed in the back that I can't handle.
Mickey Rourke
If you look closely at some scenes in Diner, my eyes look like Dracula's.
Mickey Rourke
It was either therapy or die.
Mickey Rourke
[The tension] between the Christians and Muslims goes back to the Crusades, doesn't it? It's too easy to blame everything on one guy. These are unpredictable, dangerous times, and I don't think that anyone really knows quite what to do.
Mickey Rourke
Where I come from, being a hard man is being able to take a good beating and then get back up again and carry on fighting.
Mickey Rourke
Julian Schnabel painted a picture that he dedicated to my character in Rumble Fish. It was called The Motorcycle Boy. I remember when he brought it over to me at the Mayflower Hotel [in New York] years ago. This is when you and I knew each other.
Mickey Rourke
I never look backwards. I have always been an athlete. I boxed before I acted.
Mickey Rourke
I think the first year and a half that I was in New York I was having trouble just living somewhere. Back in them days the city was a lot different than it is now.
Mickey Rourke
I had gotten injured during the boxing, and I was supposed to take several months off because I'd had a couple of concussions, and so I sort of just left the boxing and got into the acting by accident.
Mickey Rourke
My dogs are more important than my family.
Mickey Rourke
I don't care what Tom Cruise says about therapy.
Mickey Rourke
Years ago I realized that maybe I made mistake, politically, when I turned a lot of that stuff down. I would go off to obscure places and make movies that six people went to see.
Mickey Rourke
I have a really good relationship with a lot of designers. I like Gaultier, Billionaire and Cavalli.
Mickey Rourke
Hey, baby, nobody suffers like the poor.
