More quotes by William Hurt
If you're lucky, and not a lot of actors are these days, you get the chance to create a character
William Hurt
It just seems like that because I do a lot of independent films that don't get to the mainstream.
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

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'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
What's really frustrating with movies is the lack of improvement.
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
Being famous is not something that would make me feel successful - unless one was striving for mediocrity.
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 just looked at him because I want to be looking in someone's eyes when I die.
William Hurt
