More quotes by Tom Cruise
Being a Scientologist, when you drive past an accident... you know you have to do something about it because you know you're the only one that can really help.
Tom Cruise
I love adventure movies, I just love action adventure films. It's pure cinema and you go in and you're lost to it. To me, it's that challenge - I want to give an audience that ride, that entertainment.
Tom Cruise
I always look for a challenge and something that's different.
Tom Cruise
Where do I get my seriousness? You can't help but grow up fast when your parents get divorced. You see your mother go to get food stamps and she's making fifty dollars too much to get them, with four kids to support.
Tom Cruise
Psychiatry is a pseudoscience.... You don't know the history of psychiatry. I do...Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, you don't even -you're glib. You don't even know what Ritalin is.
Tom Cruise
I've always thought of the audience. I just want to entertain the audience. That's what it's about: what's good for the movie, what's best for the movie, what's best for the audience.
Tom Cruise
I didn't become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities.
Tom Cruise
Every single time I start to do a picture, without fail, I feel as if I don't know what I'm doing.

It's well known I'm a Scientologist, and that has helped me to find that inner peace in my life and it's something that has given me great stability and tools that I use.
Tom Cruise
If you have kids, it is the most important thing to create good times.
Tom Cruise
I enjoy working with writers and their scripts. It's very exciting to me. Eventually I would like to produce, direct and act onstage, but it's not a heavy pressure. When I do it, I want to do it well. I'm just educating myself with writers and scripts, because I didn't read a lot of books when I was growing up.
Tom Cruise
I'm a good listener. I think it's the one characteristic that's most important. I've always been that way. Not that I take all the advice, but you've got to listen to it and have the courage to make your own decision. Then I just go for it.
Tom Cruise
On film Vanilla Sky: You're going to get the full experience of what love is.
Tom Cruise
The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible.
Tom Cruise
I've had such extremes in my life. From being this kind of wild kid, to one year studying to be a Franciscan priest at the seminary....I was very frustrated.
Tom Cruise
As a young actor, people were trying to define who I was before I really knew that for myself. But I still remember thinking, This is what I love doing, and I hope I'm going to be able to do it forever.
Tom Cruise
I kept looking [at Katie] and thinking, 'This woman's amazing.' I'm happy that I'm with her. She's amazing, and I'd think the same of her even if she wasn't with me - she's just amazing.
Tom Cruise
When you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.
Tom Cruise
But my friends are happy for me. The people who know me are happy. My mom is happy. My family is happy.
Tom Cruise
Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends.
