More quotes by Val Kilmer
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.
Val Kilmer
A hundred million dollars in the art world is a substantial amount of cash to do anything.
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
My only business plan was to get lucky.
Val Kilmer
Mark Twain created a new type of literature and not a lot of people can say that. Not a lot of people can say they're absolutely original and completely self-made.
Val Kilmer
Peter Sellers was just a brilliant actor, and also comedic.
Val Kilmer
If you look up the definition of news in the dictionary, it isn't what you watch on TV.
Val Kilmer
One out of 100 citizens of the U.S. is going to prison, and it's not that the system is making criminals, it's that it's making criminals better criminals. We're breeding them like rats and it has to change.
Val Kilmer
That's the joy of art - it should be dangerous and challenging but it's just art - it's safe.
Val Kilmer
Mark Twain is a universe, and he is also a kind of American authority figure. He can say things to America that other people can't say, in a way that can truly be heard.
Val Kilmer
Mark Twain is as big as America. He really is.
Val Kilmer
Give me the compliments. I love compliments. I was born modest, but it wore off.
Val Kilmer
I fell in love with the land and with the very old fashioned idea of leaving a physical legacy for my children. A stunning place, with a magnificent forest of trees, and a magnificent river.
Val Kilmer
Acting is very immediate.
Val Kilmer
I'm very wary of news on television.
Val Kilmer
Warner Bros offered me the next Batman, and the only reason that I didn't do it was because of The Saint.
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'm not just an actor born in L.A. I was born in the Griffith Park Hospital. You can't get any more clichéd than that.
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 love acting, and doing it well matters to me.
