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.

More quotes by William Hurt
I want to prove a point. That point is, actors are artists, not narcissists necessarily.
William Hurt
I was a science fiction junkie for a long time.
William Hurt
David Cronenberg knows what we actors do as artists.
William Hurt
The simple fact of existence, of being aware that you are aware this to me is the most astounding fact.
William Hurt
The Alexander Technique has helped me to undo knots, unblock energy and deal with almost paralysing stage fright
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
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
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
I know what I love about acting - and it's the creative process
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
The perfection in theater is that it's over the second it's done
William Hurt
Being famous is not something that would make me feel successful - unless one was striving for mediocrity.
William Hurt
I just looked at him because I want to be looking in someone's eyes when I die.
William Hurt
I need six weeks of rehearsal and women need nine months and it took me 15 years to figure that out
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 listen to XM radio because I can get so many overseas news stations.
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
Sometimes people call me a success for all the reasons that make me think I'm a failure
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
Being a father, being a friend, those are the things that make me feel successful.
William Hurt
