More quotes by 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.

If you think that by threatening me you can get me to do what you want... well, that's where you're right. But - and I am only saying this because I care - there's a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market that are just as tasty as the real thing.

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.

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
Why do women get paid less money? It doesn't make any sense.

Val Kilmer
I sang the songs in 'The Doors'.
Val Kilmer
It is a weird thing that actors have people applaud when they're done working. I still find that entertaining.
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
I don't believe in death. I think it's just a state of mind.
Val Kilmer
I have never taken my career seriously. My only ambition was to grow as an actor.
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.
