Warner Bros offered me the next Batman, and the only reason that I didn't do it was because of The Saint.
Val Kilmer
Give me the compliments. I love compliments. I was born modest, but it wore off.
Val Kilmer
It sounds corny to say, but the theater is sacred something transcendent can occur, and when it does, everyone grows. It's a true communion.
Val Kilmer
Hollywood's like a warehouse. It's just a place that you go. What's interesting in the warehouse has to do with the creative people.
Val Kilmer
Sometimes, I wonder what I'm doing back in Los Angeles, but when you look out there... How can you complain when you see a whale cresting, matter-of-factly, as you make your breakfast?
Val Kilmer
I don't believe in death. I think it's just a state of mind.

Gregory Peck was so charismatic. I saw a woman fall down - fall down! - when she saw him in a restaurant. And Brando. We were in London, and by then he was about 380 pounds. There was a gorgeous waitress, and off he went, in direct competition with me for this young girl's attention, speaking French, making her blush.

Val Kilmer
Again, in Wag the Dog, war has to be declared by an act of congress. But if you go to war, you don't have to declare war. You're just at war and we did that, which is not legal.
Val Kilmer
You just don't understand humility until you have children and get divorced. I was very hurt and very angry and so was she. But when kids are involved, you either become friends with respect or you become mortal enemies.
Val Kilmer
I've found that Hollywood's a really honest business. They don't pull any punches. They tell you exactly what you want-I want the fake breasts and the flat car and the big pool. You know, they're real up-front about it.
Val Kilmer
I liked being Doc Holliday. It's fun to be insightful and aristocratic, to stand up for your friend and make sacrifices for him. It was fun to be arrogant like he was and have the goods to back it up. He was a very noble character. Although, let's not forget, he did kill a lot of people.
Val Kilmer
Once is more than generous for any lifetime.
Val Kilmer
The audience and I have an intimacy that is, I believe, rare, most times out.
Val Kilmer
I went to public school in L.A., so I felt like I'd been in a coma for three years. I woke up, and moved to New York.
Val Kilmer
That's the joy of art - it should be dangerous and challenging but it's just art - it's safe.
