More quotes by 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'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 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 like storytelling, and I feel more confident as the years have gone on about my ability to do that.
Walton Goggins
If you ever get the opportunity to work with Quentin Tarantino, you had better believe that it will be an experience of extremes.
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 hate to use this as a metaphor, but making movies is kind of like going to war. It's not - but the stamina required and what it takes to tell a story that is this big in scope, you need a general that will bring out the best in you.
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 find that I have no problem getting a table at a restaurant when I walk in.
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
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
'The Portrait of Dorian Grey' beautifully articulates how the altruistic part of ourselves clashes with our essentially narcissistic state.
Walton Goggins
You know, I'm from the South, and I wasn't interested in perpetuating a stereotypical southern character.
Walton Goggins
I quite like antiques. I like things that are old and the history they bring with them. I would rather fly to Morocco on an $800 ticket and buy a chair for $300 than spend $1,100 on one at Pottery Barn.
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 really believe that when you're playing a character that everything is contained in the script. If I'm pulling from things from my own life, then I think I'm being disingenuous to the character and the story.
Walton Goggins
I think I've made a career out of making despicable people likable.
Walton Goggins
I never fancied myself having a prejudice towards people with tattoos. I personally don't have any and I don't think that I do, but I do see that people treat me differently with tattoos. People get out of my way.
Walton Goggins
I've had a great career. I've had a great life. I am truly blessed by my working experiences.
Walton Goggins
We want to see ourselves reflected in our heroes. Unfortunately most of us don't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
