John Malkovich Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von John Malkovich:

Anybody doing something brings something to it.

If you're too smart it can limit you because you spend so much time thinking that you don't do anything.

John Malkovich

You have to do things people see or you don't get to do anything.

John Malkovich

I never really did a western western.

John Malkovich

I like very much to do movies.

John Malkovich

I think 1973 was the nadir of fashion. When you watch the coverage from that era, you're struck by the astonishing ugliness of the clothes.

John Malkovich

I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.

John Malkovich

Fashion is chaotic, and it can be an aggravation, too, but it is at its best when it allows you to express yourself.

John Malkovich

If you don't interfere with me, I'll always do something really good.

John Malkovich

Most films, it doesn't matter if you see them or not.

John Malkovich

I don't think my parents know what I do.

John Malkovich

I mean, anything that money can be made off will never be a problem to make, no matter what it is.

John Malkovich

You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting.

John Malkovich

It's not a gift of mine, but one given to me, to be able to criticise myself and not be crushed, by myself or by others.

John Malkovich

I'm more comfortable with whatever's wrong with me than my father was whenever he felt he failed or didn't measure up to the standard he set.

John Malkovich

It never occurred to me to be an actor.

John Malkovich

I grew up in the Midwest, quite far from any ocean or any beach, a million miles. I think for kids who grew up where I did, the idea of California, surfing and beach life was so exotic and glamorous.

John Malkovich

Even if you do succeed most people wouldn't notice anyway.

John Malkovich

I don't really go through a process, it goes through me.

John Malkovich

I'm more likely to lose my temper on a film set than almost anywhere. Often the level of idiocy is so exalted that it's impossible to comprehend.

John Malkovich

I always liked clothes; since I was very, very young, I was interested. I studied costume as part of my theatre education.

John Malkovich

My life before children I don't really remember. I've heard references to it, but I really don't remember.

John Malkovich

I wouldn't say anything I ever did in film would be something I'd use the word proud about. I've done better work in the theater.

John Malkovich

I only have two rules for my newly born daughter: she will dress well and never have sex.

John Malkovich

Anybody doing something brings something to it.

John Malkovich

I've permitted myself to learn and to fail with some regularity. And that is probably the one thing I was given, and that I'm still grateful for.

John Malkovich

There's a reason screens are only this thick.

John Malkovich

My father was an exceptionally strong influence on me.

John Malkovich

I believe in humans.

John Malkovich

I can see how, given a certain degree of sensitivities, proclivities and rage, I could have ended up differently.

John Malkovich

I'm supposed to be a pretty good theater actor.

John Malkovich

I was never a fanatical movie person.

John Malkovich

We have a tendency to think everyone's idiotic and everyone's only doing something idiotic, and the world is controlled by a not-so-secret group of morons. There's great truth in that, I suppose, but then it's also not true.

John Malkovich

I probably have more female friends than any man I've ever met. What I like about them is that almost always they're generally mentally tougher, and they're better listeners, and they're more capable of surviving things.

John Malkovich

Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.

John Malkovich

Some directors expect you to do everything; write, be producer, psychiatrist. Some just want you to die in a tragic accident during the shooting so they can get the insurance.

John Malkovich

Sigmund Freud said we act out our own dreams, but if you are only an actor you are not acting out your own dream. You are simply participating in someone else's dream.
