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.

More quotes by Walton Goggins
I think I've made a career out of making despicable people likable.
Walton Goggins
My heroes are Robert Duvall, Forest Whitaker, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and Sean Penn.
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 listen to music cinematically. I think about music and how it would make me feel when it's put to an image, a moving image, and I love it.
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
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 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
I think I'm much too earnest to be as cool as 'Boyd Crowder'.
Walton Goggins
But probably my favorite music, believe it or not, is sad music.
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
Art is not created in a vacuum. That experience is something to be shared with a group of people, and to be moved in that way.
Walton Goggins
Tarantino and Jackson is like Scorsese and DeNiro, and their silent communication.
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 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
'The Portrait of Dorian Grey' beautifully articulates how the altruistic part of ourselves clashes with our essentially narcissistic state.
Walton Goggins
I try to leave a light footprint. I'm involved with Global Green, which aims to educate people about sustainable building and the greening of schools. I try to be aware about the consumption of unnecessary things in a consumptive culture.
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
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
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 like storytelling, and I feel more confident as the years have gone on about my ability to do that.
