More quotes by 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
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
Tarantino and Jackson is like Scorsese and DeNiro, and their silent communication.
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 aimlessly travel, meaning I have no agenda other than to get small in the world, be quiet and observe people.
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 think I've made a career out of making despicable people likable.
Walton Goggins
The life of a character doesn't just exist between action and cut.

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 don't take a scene or word for granted.
Walton Goggins
I find that I have no problem getting a table at a restaurant when I walk in.
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
I think I'm much too earnest to be as cool as 'Boyd Crowder'.
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'm kind of the funny guy that hopefully kind of wins your heart if I did my job.
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
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
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
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
My heroes are Robert Duvall, Forest Whitaker, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and Sean Penn.
