Making a movie is like a chess game. It's about constantly changing patterns, adapting to new things. It's not just black and white, as you know.

More quotes by Tom Cruise
When you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.
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'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'm not greedy. I just want my half.
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.
Tom Cruise
Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe? Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know.
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 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
But I think also you look at Scientology it is the fastest growing religion. It's helped so many people.
Tom Cruise
I don't care what someone believes. I don't care what nationality they are. But if someone wants to get off drugs, I can help them. If someone wants to learn how to read, I can help them. If someone doesn't want to be a criminal anymore, I can give them tools that can better their life.
Tom Cruise
Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends.
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
Everybody dies, Sally. The thing is to die well.
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 have respect for what other people believe. What I believe in my own life is that it's a search for how I can do things better, whether it's being a better man or a better father or finding ways for myself to improve.
Tom Cruise
I look at the Samurai because they were the artists of their time. What I think struck me when I read Bushido is compassion. 'If there's no one there to help, go out and find someone to help.' That hit me, because I try to lead my life like that.
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
Someday. That's a dangerous word. It's really just a code for 'never'.
Tom Cruise
Perception and reality are two different things.
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.
