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.

More quotes by 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.

You know, I'm from the South, and I wasn't interested in perpetuating a stereotypical southern character.

Success in TV-showmaking is just a matter of being authentic and doing the best you can, and you hope that people watch it and like it. For us [showmakers], we know where our bread is buttered, and we live by the written word of the critic. That's how shows build a critical mass on cable.

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
Unfortunately, when you're the king of the hill, there's really only one way to go, and that's down.
Walton Goggins

Walton Goggins
We want to see ourselves reflected in our heroes. Unfortunately most of us don't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
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
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
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
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
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.
