More quotes by Rob Lowe
Whether you're a presidential front-runner, or an Academy Award-winning actor, or head of a TV ministry, if you stay in the public eye long enough they're going to try and find a scandal.
Rob Lowe
[The Outsiders] was all new to me. It's been fun to be a part of that ride, where it's become on the level of Catcher In The Rye in terms of people's required reading in schools.
Rob Lowe
Anybody who doesn't have a scandal I have no interest in meeting because they haven't lived their lives.
Rob Lowe
When people consent to do something, they should be able to do whatever they want.
Rob Lowe
Being pulled that long and that hard for a 12-hour day gave me migraines. It's what they used to do before there were facelifts for actresses – you know, Joan Crawford's whole career was this. Then the makeup is like Earl Scheib auto body paint sprayed on my face.
Rob Lowe
I went from doing something that was very original, sort of subversive, and specific in its voice - The Grinder - and loved every minute of it, but having done that, I was anxious to do something that had more broad appeal and to embrace the good things about that.
Rob Lowe
Chris [Farley] - I would consider him a comic animal. With the emphasis on animal.
Rob Lowe
The media have such a strong hand in deciding what people's perceptions are. They decide what the agenda is going to be, what the issues are.
Rob Lowe
Sam Seaborn is the best character that's ever been written for me, certainly. By far. And it's a timeless show [The West Wing], one that's having another resurgence now, with people so in an uproar politically.
Rob Lowe
Somebody once told me - and I could be wrong about this - that The West Wing was, on any given episode, $300,000 over, on average. Now today, if you were $10,000 over budget, they would cancel you. For sure.
Rob Lowe
You show me someone who's led a perfect life and I'll show you a dullard.
Rob Lowe
I was not familiar with the book [before filming in The Outsiders] , though. Interestingly, The Outsiders had not reached the point where it is now, where it's required reading in sixth and seventh grades. In my sixth and seventh grade, we did not, but today everyone does.
Rob Lowe
I am the guy dressing up in, you know, the caveman outfit for the kids birthday parties.
Rob Lowe
It's the media that take an isolated incident and make it a deciding factor in a presidential campaign, as opposed to the real issues, like abortion, the homeless, the deficit. The same is true with actors and their lifestyles.
Rob Lowe
[Bad Influence]was David Koepp's first big screenplay. It was actually a writing sample that was around town to get David work at the time, and Steve Tisch - now the owner of the New York Giants - found it, loved it, and together we put it together. But I'd say that would be the one I'd tell people to go and look at if they haven't seen it.
Rob Lowe
When I'm angry I'm an incredibly tough person, because I don't get angry easily.
Rob Lowe
The script was given to me by one of my agents and they didn't tell me anything about it. My first reaction was, The West Wing? Is it about a squadron of fighter jets? Then I turned the page and saw, 'by Aaron Sorkin' and I knew it was going to be something good.
Rob Lowe
Everybody is God. Everybody is the devil. And if you don't realize you have both parts, that's what really causes problems.
Rob Lowe
Whether you're a movie star or doing time in a correctional institute, everybody can have bad judgment, and it's something you have to address. You learn to go on from it. It shouldn't stand in your way. You shouldn't let people continue to throw it in your face.
Rob Lowe
People are human. There's such a premium today on being perfect. That's just not the way people are.
Rob Lowe
