More quotes by William Hurt
I've been delighted by Cannes and Toronto but I keep saying I don't know how good we're going to be received in America because that's where it's most challenging
William Hurt
I have a film I want to direct. Gena Rowlands was going to do it with me a long time ago. It's about an older woman who's running a ranch in the west the old fashioned way.
William Hurt
And I don't want to use my troubles as an example of what to do and what not to do.
William Hurt
I very much prefer the balance in a scene to standing out and so you have to make a decision
William Hurt
I know what I love about acting - and it's the creative process
William Hurt
I demand minimal for paid rehearsal and not always six weeks either.
William Hurt
I am so thrilled by the privilege of life, and yet at the same time I know that I have to let it go.
William Hurt
I listen to XM radio because I can get so many overseas news stations.
William Hurt
Not to be offensive, not to be capricious, not to be arbitrary, not to be neurotic, not to be an actor outer, you're just trying to get in and you're given so little time to get in gently, but it's always hard.
William Hurt
Great risks come in long term, tremendously assiduous, very courageous study.
William Hurt
The Alexander Technique has helped me to undo knots, unblock energy and deal with almost paralysing stage fright
William Hurt
The greatest single human gift is the ability to chase down our dreams.
William Hurt
I just looked at him because I want to be looking in someone's eyes when I die.
William Hurt
When I look at a person, or a character, it is in every case the beginning of an endless journey. And I don't suppose I know where that starts. I know that I have to, like every other person, make decisions and have opinions. But I'm real careful to not judge crassly or cheaply someone else's life.
William Hurt
It just seems like that because I do a lot of independent films that don't get to the mainstream.
William Hurt
You have to create a track record of breaking your own mold, or at least other people's idea of that mold.
William Hurt
I want to prove a point. That point is, actors are artists, not narcissists necessarily.
William Hurt
But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all.
William Hurt
You don't look at it as the size of the role. Quantity is not the point. You can be as thorough in 30 seconds as you can in three hours.
William Hurt
I need six weeks of rehearsal and women need nine months and it took me 15 years to figure that out
