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.

That's the joy of art - it should be dangerous and challenging but it's just art - it's safe.
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
Most films made about the future acquiesce toward death, and I don't want to be told how to define my future.
Val Kilmer
I just don't think I've ever been comfortable at public functions and selling myself as an entity.
Val Kilmer
I learned a long time ago that place matters to me, on many levels, and maybe more than it should, but it is generally counter-productive for me to resist it.

If you know where your spiritual center is, and you neglect it, peace will always allude you.

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
I respect people who can do both careers, like Will Smith and a couple of other people who have done it, but I just don't know when they sleep.
Val Kilmer
Hollywood is wonderful, but it does eat its young.

Daryl Hannah likes to goof around with fashion, but she does have pretty impeccable taste.
Val Kilmer
So it`s always helped me to have a foundation, an ideal to strive for and goals. It`s hard for me to be disciplined and plan things.
Val Kilmer
I have never taken my career seriously. My only ambition was to grow as an actor.
Val Kilmer
There are lots of actors who are awful people, but nobody talks about them being awful because they've made billions.
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?
Val Kilmer
Unless a Western's made money - doesn't matter who made the money, doesn't matter what the subject is - if the last one didn't make any money, you can't make another one for a four-year period. Westerns more than any genre.
Val Kilmer
Mark Twain had a way of telling stories that shifts your consciousness away from labels.
Val Kilmer
My perception is that I've never done anything but work really hard.
Val Kilmer
There are only three reasons to do a movie: the cast, the director, the role. Like I say, you live in a minute of screen time, but to prepare for the minute takes much more than a day. You'd better be excited about what those moments are, even if they're the hardest moments. Or the smallest.
