John Cusack Quotes

Every role you do is kind of a side of yourself. That’s why they give you the part Picture Quote #1

I think any actor can probably identify with being a professional liar. You don’t always look at yourself that way, but I know a lot of days I do Picture Quote #1

Any time you stop looking at evil as a black and white thing, it’s helpful. So the fact that there won’t be any obligatory Islamic terrorist stereotypes in movies any more, that’d be helpful Picture Quote #1

The film is not a success until it makes money. It’s only good when there’s a dollar figure attached to the box office Picture Quote #1

Don’t buy into the corporate mythology that’s been rammed down our throats for all these years Picture Quote #1

My dad had a commercial film company, so he had a videotape player before anyone. So he got Mel Brooks movies or Citizen Kane or some classic old movies. And every summer the revival house in Evanston would show the great films from the 50s and 60s and 70s Picture Quote #1

I force people to have coffee with me, just because I don’t trust that a friendship can be maintained without any other senses besides a computer or cellphone screen Picture Quote #1

Poe had this curious kind of alchemical courage, where he took all the terrible things and terrors that happened in his life, all this shame and fear and pain, and turned them into great works of art. He was a complex, brilliant person who was just wired too tight Picture Quote #1

The ages two to 15 I spent at different stages of shortness. I didn’t become a tall person until I was 16 Picture Quote #1

You just try to get the best jobs that you can get. Sometimes I produce my own movies, so that’s your own sort of vision. That helps things. I don’t know what it is. Probably just circumstance. I’ve definitely been aware of the fact that I want to do different things Picture Quote #1

Death is a billion-dollar business. They can’t even pass a law where it takes seven days to get a gun. Why don’t you have to go through the same kind of screening you do to get a driver’s license? It’s totally insane Picture Quote #1

With acting, you wanna see if you can get into trouble without knowing how you’re gonna get out of it. It’s like the exact opposite of war, where you need an exit strategy. When you’re acting, you should get all the way into trouble with no exit strategy, and have the cameras rolling Picture Quote #1

It seems to me that one thing people do over and over again is try to figure out how to get married, stay married, fall in love, how to rekindle all this stuff. It seems to me to be a pretty eternal theme so I don’t know if you can get typecast from making movies about men relating to women. It seems to be what is going on on the planet a lot Picture Quote #1

I love these movies where it’s just about the film. You don’t have my face on the poster. It’s all about the movie. I like that Picture Quote #1
