More quotes by Steve Buscemi
Casting is everything. Getting the person that you imagined is this character and then seeing what they bring to it.That's why you hire them, so why tell somebody first what it is you want? I'm more curious to see what they bring to it and then be inspired by it and say: OK, what if you tried this? or What would happen if ... ?

I don't tend to think of the characters i play as losers. I like the struggles that people have, people who are feeling like they don't fit into society, because I still sort of feel that way.

Steve Buscemi

Steve Buscemi
They're not supposed to show prison films in prison. Especially ones that are about escaping.
Steve Buscemi
I have a dresser, who literally is a guy who makes sure the tie is right. It's a little bit of a process. I could probably do it by myself, but it would take me three times as long.
Steve Buscemi
Every day's an adventure when I step out of my door. That's why I usually wear a hat and keep my head low.
Steve Buscemi
I hope I don't make it sound like it's this big to-do, but even putting on real cufflinks takes work.
Steve Buscemi
Character actors just pile up the credits because you work on a movie for like a few days. It's not like I'm the lead in everything I do - far from it. I'm not spending three or four months on a picture I'm spending three or four weeks. Sometimes three or four days.
Steve Buscemi
I'm terrible at story and structure, but I'm not so bad at writing dialogue.
Steve Buscemi
I like character-driven stuff. It doesn't matter, the size of the part.
Steve Buscemi
I feel my life has more meaning because I am responsible for another life, although I don't have control over what Lucian - my son - is going to do. He's definitely going to carve his own way.
