More quotes by Tom Cruise
I also realise power is fleeting, it doesn't last forever in this career, so I want to make the most of it. I want to make the kinds of pictures that interest me, it's as simple as that. I've never done work for money ever. If your choices are based on grosses and the film doesn't do well, what does that mean? It leaves you with nothing.
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
I want a world without war, a world without insanity. I want to see people do well. I don't even think it's as much as what I want for myself. It's more what I want for the people around me. That's what I want.
Tom Cruise
I've been... chased by paparazzi, and they run lights, and they chase you and harass you the whole time. It happens all over the world, and it has certainly gotten worse. You don't know what it's like being chased by them.
Tom Cruise
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 structure the scripts and work on them on films and work on scenes with writers and but I haven't written a script myself, I really respect what they do and I'm fortunate I get to work with people that I really enjoy working with and we all kind of spitball and work together on these things, but I haven't written a script yet.
Tom Cruise
Of course [I believe in aliens]. Are you so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe?
Tom Cruise
Talk is over-rated as a means of settling disputes
Tom Cruise
We live in a world in which we are able to communicate very quickly in many different ways, and yet we find communicating more difficult than ever. When in fact we need communication more urgently than ever, because the enemies that threaten us are universal: drugs, illiteracy and crime. We have to fight against them together.
Tom Cruise
Perception and reality are two different things.
Tom Cruise
I feel the need... the need for speed.
Tom Cruise
I've always had the same values. Family for me has always been important. When I shoot, everybody comes.
Tom Cruise
Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends.
Tom Cruise
Someday. That's a dangerous word. It's really just a code for 'never'.
Tom Cruise
If you have kids, it is the most important thing to create good times.
Tom Cruise
My childhood was extremely lonely. I was dyslexic and lots of kids make fun of me. That experience made me tough inside, because you learn to quietly accept ridicule.
Tom Cruise
I'm someone who doesn't believe in making my problems other people's problems.
Tom Cruise
I don't care who you are, life has challenges.
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
The important thing is to be relaxed in your work. Same in life. Don't make everything too intense. Then you can let everything go and not act.
