More quotes by William Hurt
I want to prove a point. That point is, actors are artists, not narcissists necessarily.
William Hurt
The perfection in theater is that it's over the second it's done
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
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
Sometimes people call me a success for all the reasons that make me think I'm a failure
William Hurt
But it's also another myth to think that you should be as tight as a drum and not have any frailties or fragilities.
William Hurt

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
People who have expertise or the luck to have rehearsal time with cameras have it over people who don't.
William Hurt
I was a science fiction junkie for a long time.
William Hurt
I'm not comfortable with walking the red carpet in a tuxedo and seeing all the women with their boobs pushed up and all the men dressed as penguins - particularly when the subject of your film is the nature of violence and humanity.
William Hurt
I demand minimal for paid rehearsal and not always six weeks either.
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 think acting can bring you closer to yourself and help you understand other people
William Hurt
I know what I love about acting - and it's the creative process
William Hurt
Being a father, being a friend, those are the things that make me feel successful.
William Hurt
The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing, which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.
William Hurt
I just looked at him because I want to be looking in someone's eyes when I die.
William Hurt
All I know is that my best work has come out of being committed and happy.
