More quotes by Walton Goggins
Maybe when you're alone or no one's looking, you dare to think, Maybe someday I could get to work with somebody like Quentin Tarantino. For me, it happened. And it didn't just happen once, it's happened twice.
Walton Goggins
I like storytelling, and I feel more confident as the years have gone on about my ability to do that.
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
No, but there are people I grew up with from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains that would give any person on 'Justified' a run for their money in the scary department.
Walton Goggins
I find that I have no problem getting a table at a restaurant when I walk in.

The life of a character doesn't just exist between action and cut.
Walton Goggins
'The Portrait of Dorian Grey' beautifully articulates how the altruistic part of ourselves clashes with our essentially narcissistic state.
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
I think I'm much too earnest to be as cool as 'Boyd Crowder'.
Walton Goggins
I don't take a scene or word for granted.
Walton Goggins
You know, I'm from the South, and I wasn't interested in perpetuating a stereotypical southern character.
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
I think Hollywood sees so many parts of America through a very narrow prism. The South is no exception. And those stereotypes, while sometimes true, are exaggerated for me to the point of boredom.
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
I aimlessly travel, meaning I have no agenda other than to get small in the world, be quiet and observe people.
Walton Goggins
Like everybody, I've had a lot of pain in my life and I'm a work in progress. You must have a true desire to see the world from a different point of view, and that comes with growing up.
