Ethan Hawke Quotes

The more kind of head trippy sci-fi. I always like that. I was a big ‘Twilight Zone’ freak Picture Quote #1

The thing that makes a great genre movie is one that’s not just entertainment, not just horror or sci-fi or whatever. The ones I love are the genre pictures with some subversive message underlying it all Picture Quote #1

When you do ‘Before Sunset,’ you know while it’s a limited audience, there was a very small group of people that love ‘Before Sunrise.’ You feel a certain pressure to make sure that you uphold a level of quality that has been a bar. You set a bar and you have to at least match it Picture Quote #1

When you start becoming really successful, the demons start to tempt you - the demons of vanity and self importance, drug abuse, the feelings of fraudulence. But, it’s also a thrill. That’s what I found weird Picture Quote #1

A lot of American actors when they do Shakespeare put on a phoney English accent and it drives me crazy. You’re always fighting against the idea that only the British know how to do Shakespeare Picture Quote #1

I can’t tell you how many times in the 90s I’d meet somebody, we’d be having a nice time, and they’d sigh and go, ‘This is exactly like Before Sunrise.’ And I’d have to get up and leave Picture Quote #1

The experience on that movie ( Dead Poets Society ) was, for lack of a better term, life-altering. Peter Weir has a unique talent for making movies that are intelligent but also mainstream. I’ve never been terribly successful at doing that Picture Quote #1

I never thought that I would be labeled something like Generation X because of that movie ( Reality Bites ). I had no idea going into it, and it wasn’t a label I could relate to Picture Quote #1

The kindest compliments I have ever heard are when cops tell me Training Day and Assault on Precinct 13 inspired them to become cops. The funniest compliments I have ever heard are when people tell me that ‘I love your band Sugar Ray Picture Quote #1

If you say to yourself, okay, I will not self-destruct. I don’t have to be the most talented person. I don’t have to be everybody’s best friend, I don’t have to be liked, I don’t have to be successful, well, one thing I will not do is self-destruct. If you take that out, your chances for success just went up like 800 percent Picture Quote #1

I don’t think Emma Watson needs any advice. She’s an incredibly smart young woman who knows what she wants out of life and she has some great parents Picture Quote #1

Few years ago I did a movie, Good Kill, about drone pilots and for four or five months I’m obsessed with the Air Force Picture Quote #1

I met a lot of famous people when I was about 24. And none of them seemed very appealing. And so I didn’t know why I would struggle to be that kind of person Picture Quote #1

The Woodstock Film festival is among the finest of a dying breed: a festival that isn’t trying to sell you anything, but simply and beautifully celebrating the art and craft of filmmaking Picture Quote #1

I believe in the healing restorative power of art and communication. And so that’s probably my rule. But that doesn’t apply to bedtimes. And stuff like that Picture Quote #1

I think that if you walk through this life and I end up being a bad father, then it won’t matter anything else I achieved in my life. It will all be irrelevant Picture Quote #1

I remember being a kid and sleeping over at my friend’s house and staying up late and watching ‘Nosferatu.’ Vampire movies are supposed to be secret and bad. They should be rated R Picture Quote #1

Right now, if you’re interested in being a dramatic actor, they’re not making that many just regular dramas. Movies have to have some other thing going on Picture Quote #1

Some people burn out, and some people like Clint Eastwood, he was a wild, international movie star in his 30s, and he’s doing the best work of his life now. Go figure Picture Quote #1

Everyone has to pay their child support, and no matter if you’re a Hollywood actor or anyone else, it’s always a little bit more than you want to pay Picture Quote #1

I love working on scripts. I love coming up with ideas about what people would dress like or talk like. I love all that Picture Quote #1

Depression is a real demon in the woods for a lot of creative people, you know? It’s part of what the documentary is trying to be about for me, finding balance, where the beauty that is attainable in the creative arts can be matched with the scratchy roughness of regular life Picture Quote #1

In New York, you’ve got Donald Trump, Woody Allen, a crack addict and a regular Joe, and they’re all on the same subway car Picture Quote #1

I’d be lying if I said I had confidence in every choice I’ve made, that I have faith in every film I do on every shot Picture Quote #1

Emma Watson is my kids’ favorite actor on the planet. They never took me more seriously than when I was working with her Picture Quote #1

I did this movie, Predestination, and it’s one of my favorite movies I’ve ever made, because sci-fi really lets you talk about ideas in a way that’s not pretentious Picture Quote #1

I have had so many bad auditions Picture Quote #1
