Val Kilmer
My only business plan was to get lucky.
Val Kilmer
I think death is just a transition to another state of consciousness.
Val Kilmer
Art is a way to get strength from something that is life-affirming. It can be quite violent and still be life-affirming.
Val Kilmer
I'm a better person when I'm preparing for a role, when I'm studying a role.
Val Kilmer
It's the first time that I've ever had an art show based on a film, but it's a photography collage.

YouTube is a new experience for me-someone threw a laptop in front of me and showed me Nic Cage going mad, which has got to be the funniest thing on YouTube. He's so courageous.
Val Kilmer
I love that Bob Dylan asked me to be in the first movie he wrote.
Val Kilmer
I don't think of my life as a cliche, but I'm a cliche eccentric. Complete with a strange name - I mean, who's named Val? How many Vals do you know? I mean, really?
