  • Filled in as a last-minute host for David Letterman on February 26, 2003, a show he was supposed to be the guest for. This was Letterman's first "sick day" in 20 years (other than his time off for heart surgery).

Bruce Willis's quotes

  • I'm much more proud of being a father than being an actor.
  • You can't undo the past . . . but you can certainly not repeat it.
  • I'm staggered by the question of what it's like to be a multimillionaire. I always have to remind myself that I am.
  • I am a sensitive guy. People think they know the real me, but they don't. And then they write things that make me sound like such a jerk.
  • I hate working out. I work out for films solely. I associate working out with films. As soon as they stop, I stop working out.
  • Fifty is the new 40. I always thought my best work would come in the years 40 to 60, if I was fortunate enough to hang around--and it is hard to stick around.
  • Who I am as a father is far more important to me than the public perception.
  • I am baffled to understand why the things that I saw happening in Iraq, really good things happening in Iraq, are not being reported on.
  • [on Hudson Hawk (1991)] I always thought it was a little ahead of its time, a little too hip for the room.
  • I'm not an action hero anymore, and I think it would be inappropriate for me to compare anything that happens in Hollywood and the entertainment industry to the tragic loss of life on September 11th.
  • The Iraqi people want to live in a world where they can move from their homes to the market and not have to fear being killed. I mean, doesn't everybody want that?
  • [on his planned film about the Iraq war] The movie is about these guys who do what they are asked for very little money to defend and fight for what they consider to be freedom.
  • I thought about signing up but my friends told me I was too old. I called the White House, called President [George Bush] and asked what I could do. So I got involved with the national foster care program.
  • I'm always being accused of being a Hollywood Republican, but I'm not! I have just as many Democratic ideas as Republican ones. If they could build three fewer bombs every month and give the money to foster care, that would be great.
  • Hair loss is God's way of telling me I'm human.
  • They still haven't caught the guy that killed [John F. Kennedy]. I'll get killed for saying this, but I'm pretty sure those guys are still in power, in some form. The entire government of the United States was co-opted.
  • No, I am not in favor of the war in Iraq, so let me stop you right there. I am not pro-war but what I am is that, I like to support the young men and women who are over there participating in the war.
  • [on Twitter] I just can't live with myself if I started twittering. I just think: "That way lies madness".
  • [on the possibility of Michael Bay directing a a Die Hard film, specifically Die Hard 4.0 (2007)] Would have ruined DH4. Few people will work with him now, and I know I will never work with him again.
  • I'm really pleased to continue to be asked back to do other versions and other incarnations of Die Hard (1988). The first one really is . . . that's all there is. Everything else is just trying to be as good as that film.
  • [on A Good Day to Die Hard (2013)] It's a difficult title. "A Good Day to Die Har"d? It's like, have a sandwich and let's go shopping--then die hard.
  • I don't cheat, lie or go out of my way to mess people over, but I'm still amazed at the venal garbage that goes on in this town. People lie about you. People want to see you fail. It's so competitive here, you can see how much people want you to fail.
  • [on Kim Basinger] What sets her apart from other actresses is that she does a lot of things well. Kim is a throwback to '40s actresses. She's not afraid to act like a geek.
