More quotes by Walton Goggins
Sadly, in this country - maybe this is in the history of the world, really - it's the urban experience versus the bucolic experience. And it is different, but therein lies the slow progression of democracy. We are a melting pot.
Walton Goggins
I really enjoy what I do, and I'm very grateful to be given an opportunity to do it. That's one thing that people can say about me.
Walton Goggins
For violent people to make themselves vulnerable, and then to have that vulnerability be used against them, bad things can happen.
Walton Goggins
You can go to a history class with one teacher and want to stick a pencil in your throat, and then go to another teacher who is able to contextualize it or deliver the message in a way that you're riveted.
Walton Goggins
I wrote about wasting time, which I suppose is a part of the great human journey. We're supposed to wallow, to go through the desert without water for a long time so that when we finally drink it, we'll truly need it and we won't spill a drop. It's about being present.
Walton Goggins
I'm kind of the funny guy that hopefully kind of wins your heart if I did my job.
Walton Goggins
But probably my favorite music, believe it or not, is sad music.
Walton Goggins
When you get the call from Quentin Tarantino, it's the call of a lifetime. You don't allow yourself to be vulnerable enough or to be fool enough to expect that phone call to happen, in reality.
Walton Goggins
I have a bit of a bucolic kind of upbringing, and so I certainly bring an amalgamation of different people that I've met over the course of my life, especially before moving to Los Angeles, so I guess my childhood was my homework in a lot of ways for Harlan County.
Walton Goggins
Unfortunately, when you're the king of the hill, there's really only one way to go, and that's down.
Walton Goggins
There is something beautiful and permanent in the world, and that is the love that a person can have for another human being.
Walton Goggins
I'm drawn to villains that are three-dimensional and raw and that I can kind of see in my own life.
Walton Goggins
I'm not good at telling a joke, but I can say a line in a certain way that makes people uncomfortable because they don't know whether to laugh or not, and I love that comedy.
Walton Goggins
I've had a great career. I've had a great life. I am truly blessed by my working experiences.
Walton Goggins
As an actor, you're afforded these experiences that are once-in-a-lifetime for so many people. More often than not, you can't tell the seasons based on the changing of the leaves, but on the experiences you've had.
Walton Goggins
Whenever you show up on a set where you haven't been from the beginning - at least myself - I'm kind of quiet. I just watch the politics and how everything unfolds.
Walton Goggins
We want to see ourselves reflected in our heroes. Unfortunately most of us don't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Walton Goggins
I do not have the angst and the anxiety of my youth. I've gotten to a place where I'm very comfortable with who I am.
Walton Goggins
I still live my life the way that I want to live it, and people are very respectful of my space, but they also want to chat, and I quite like chatting.
Walton Goggins
Acting is a child's game. It's your willingness to suspend one reality and substitute it for another. That reality lives and breathes in your imagination. The actors that I want to be like exercise that way of thinking, and that's kind of what I do.
Walton Goggins
