More quotes by Val Kilmer
I think death is just a transition to another state of consciousness.
Val Kilmer
Acting is not a science. Anybody who believes that their success exists in relation to their goals is deluding themselves unless you think of a career in terms of financial goals. I have nothing against Tom Cruise, but he must have a large capacity to deal with the business side of movies.
Val Kilmer
News is something that happens that matters to you, which is not most of what we watch on television.
Val Kilmer
I was in love with Tina Goodman since I was three and her parents came popping out of the trash cans. I think it made a big impression on me.
Val Kilmer
Mark Twain was an artist working at the highest level. He wrote a book, his masterpiece, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, that put America on the world stage for literature. It's almost as if, if you start reading that book as a racist, you cannot finish it and still be a racist.
Val Kilmer
The Secret Service is a strange group. They don't really have a leader. It's not set up like a military. Each one is supposed to be able to act like a leader when something comes up.
Val Kilmer
It may or may not sound pretentious. But I`ve turned down, consciously and specifically, many jobs I knew would have been a pretty surefire way to go about making a lot of money, being recognized and gaining power in the industry.
Val Kilmer
There was no one around called 'Val' when I was young, so I wanted to be John or Bill. Now I like it.
Val Kilmer
You never quiet the love message. Never.
Val Kilmer
I'm a character actor, but I look like a leading man.
Val Kilmer
Why do women get paid less money? It doesn't make any sense.
Val Kilmer
A lot of old guys in movies are like cowboys - they talk like cowboys and they dress like cowboys.
Val Kilmer
Acting is very immediate.
Val Kilmer
If you're in a hit movie, it's good to be in another hit movie straight away.
Val Kilmer
I love acting, and doing it well matters to me.
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 sang the songs in 'The Doors'.
Val Kilmer
There are some directors I should have worked with. I`d like to have worked with Robert Altman - I turned him down a couple of times when I was younger. My thing now is if it`s a good director I`ll never say no - I`m just gonna say yes from now on.
Val Kilmer
If you play Mark Twain and he's not funny, you are definitely not playing Mark Twain. That was the biggest challenge, in some ways. Writing and performing jokes that can come out of that brilliant delivery system he constructed: the friendly, avuncular truth-teller.
Val Kilmer
I never had a business plan. I did, actually - I'm lying. My business plan was to get lucky, and I did that was great. And then my second business plan was to get lucky again, and there, I faltered.
