Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.

There are people who tell you to shut up because you're just a celebrity, but pundits, talking heads, they're every bit the celebrity and a lot of them aren't any more qualified than the average man on the street.

Kevin Bacon

Somebody with a billion followers can tweet, 'See my movie,' and it can still tank. Followers don't always translate into success because I think people are too savvy. When something takes off, it's because people are connecting to it - not because someone with a lot of followers says to care about it.

Kevin Bacon

When it happened to us and it was all gone overnight, we said, 'We are in this together, we are healthy, our children are healthy and we can work'.

Kevin Bacon

I think one of the most pervasive evils in this world is greed and acquiring money for money's sake. Once you have six houses and a plane, it's just about a number. It's never been anything I understood.

Kevin Bacon

I'd always tried not to worry about the size of the role or the size of the film.

Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.

Kevin Bacon

As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.

Kevin Bacon

With a lot of actors, you've got to chip through the surface to see who the real person is.

Kevin Bacon

I like directing. It takes a lot out of you, but I'd like to do it again - I just have to find a story I want to tell.

Kevin Bacon

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.

Kevin Bacon

I didn't get into this so I could talk about my work, my movies. You become an actor to act.

Kevin Bacon

I like playing complex, interesting characters. Sometimes I don't think there's much of a strong line between right and wrong for a character. Every character is somewhere on a moral spectrum.

Kevin Bacon

If you're an actor, even a successful one, you're still waiting for the phone to ring.

Critics can be your most important friend. I don't read criticism of my stuff only because when it's bad, it's rough-and when it's good, it's not good enough.

I don't read my own reviews and I haven't for probably 15 years. I read other people's reviews, though.

Kevin Bacon

People work so hard, and I want to keep that energy up, and you can spread that if you're the actor. But I'm also not able to turn it on and off like a faucet. A lot of what I'm called upon to play is violent or angry. When I'm messing around with the crew and making jokes, I remember, 'Oh, this is the guy I normally am.'

Kevin Bacon

Fame is something that is tough when it comes. It's a weird thing to take on in real life. I was a little bit afraid and, as a result, kind of turned my back on it. You should embrace it because it's going to be a part of who you are, and it's going to be a part of what this business is about.

Kevin Bacon

I still want to make Kyra proud of the person I am - father, husband, actor, musician.

'X-Men: First Class' was fun.

Kevin Bacon

Fame is very much a double-edged sword.

Kevin Bacon

'Animal House' was my first movie, so I didn't have anything to compare it to. I was a sight gag more than anything else. So I can't say it was one of those things where your life changes. When the movie came out, I had to ask for the night off at the bar.

Kevin Bacon

Whether it's my age or my misspent youth, sometimes I forget whether I've worked with somebody or not.

I feel like my responsibility as an actor is to make characters as compelling and believable as possible.
