More quotes by 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
I saw the horizon. It's out there. And though I may not ever be able to touch it, it's worth reaching for.
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.
Val Kilmer
There's nothing good about divorce.
Val Kilmer
I love acting, and doing it well matters to me.
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
I think part of my reputation has to do with the difficult roles I've played. Actors do tend to get identified with their characters.
Val Kilmer
It hurts. I miss my kids. I miss my kids in so many ways that I can`t explain.
Val Kilmer
Why do women get paid less money? It doesn't make any sense.
Val Kilmer
I'm going to put a museum on my ranch and people keep saying, That's a huge idea. Yeah, it's big, but not bigger than the average big movie. A hundred million dollars in the art world is a substantial amount of cash to do anything. That's maybe a big gallery's total sales for a given year.
Val Kilmer
New Mexico is my home. It has never been anything but home. The ranch has rivers and canyon, everything imaginable. I can ride, hunt and fish. At the same time, ranching is grueling, difficult work. It`s like acting, to be successful at it, you have to work hard. I take it very seriously.
Val Kilmer
I was looking for projects, as you always are, and I read this scene . . . and I'm in the Hollywood Hills. So I thought, 'This is interesting.' You have this setup that seems to be based in some reality and you can only wonder where Black's going to go with this.
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
Postman is a media analyst and his theory is that television doesn't influence our culture, but that it is our culture and the presidency and anything that relies on television.
Val Kilmer
My first girlfriend in high school, I had a girlfriend in grade school, but my first girlfriend in high school was Mare Winningham, very fine actress.
Val Kilmer
If you're in a hit movie, it's good to be in another hit movie straight away.
Val Kilmer
That's the joy of art - it should be dangerous and challenging but it's just art - it's safe.
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
Once is more than generous for any lifetime.
Val Kilmer
Big movies are fun and it`s great to fly on private jets and make a lot of money and all the things that are connected with Hollywood, but they take a lot of your own life.
Val Kilmer
