More quotes by 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.

I've never made a film that I didn't believe in, you know? However the picture turns out, I've always given everything to it. That's kind of how I approach life. I can't help it. There's no part-way with me on anything in any area of my life.
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.

If I don’t talk about my religion, if I say I’m not discussing it or different humanitarian things I’m working on, they’re like, “He’s avoiding it.” If I do talk about it, it becomes, “Oh, he’s proselytizing.”
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
But my friends are happy for me. The people who know me are happy. My mom is happy. My family is happy.
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
I would live with all of my sisters if I could. We've always been very close, my sisters and me.
Tom Cruise
If someone wants to know about Scientology, they should just go and read about it themselves. That's the best way to do it.
Tom Cruise
Everybody dies, Sally. The thing is to die well.
Tom Cruise
When you become successful in any type of life, there are people who are not contributing to the motion.
Tom Cruise
Stanley Kubrick was brilliant at getting under the audience's skin. He was very interested in the idea of, 'How can I tell this with just a camera?'
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
Every single time I start to do a picture, without fail, I feel as if I don't know what I'm doing.
Tom Cruise
I feel lonely at times, but I don't want to get into a relationship with someone if it is not right. I'm not the type of person who just does things to do them.
Tom Cruise
Emotions kick up. You try not to kick things up, but you go through things you can't help.
