More quotes by Val Kilmer
YouTube is a new experience for me-someone threw a laptop in front of me and showed me Nic Cage going mad, which has got to be the funniest thing on YouTube. He's so courageous.
Val Kilmer
I sang the songs in 'The Doors'.
Val Kilmer
Art is a way to get strength from something that is life-affirming. It can be quite violent and still be life-affirming.
Val Kilmer
You never quiet the love message. Never.
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
Once is more than generous for any lifetime.

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
A lot of old guys in movies are like cowboys - they talk like cowboys and they dress like cowboys.
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
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
I just don't think I've ever been comfortable at public functions and selling myself as an entity.
Val Kilmer
My only challenge is to entertain. And I accomplish my task better when I myself am entertained by what I am doing. I am very critical of myself, I constantly set the bar higher and higher. I try to surpass myself. That`s all. But I also know how to preserve myself, to not let myself get bedazzled by the smoke and mirrors.
Val Kilmer
It was very serious and I wanted to do something really different so there was this comedy called TOP SECRET.
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
Interesting characters are troubled characters. The only problem I've had in my business is very few people - unfortunately, very vocal - confusing the difficult role that I play with me. I play these guys, but I'm not like them. I've been accused of being difficult to work with.
Val Kilmer
Hollywood is wonderful, but it does eat its young.
Val Kilmer
I probably complained more when I was younger. The movie industry can be frustrating but I think sometimes I could have been more helpful, approaching a film as a partnership rather than being critical of a director's ignorance. I wasn't sensitive to the fact that it's very hard to direct.
Val Kilmer
I think death is just a transition to another state of consciousness.
Val Kilmer
It's important to be yourself. What art does for everyone, helps you understand yourself and in a distilled way, whether it's a painting or a scene in acting or a joke. It distills something about everyday life that can be important to you.
