Kevin Bacon's quotes

There are two types of actors: those who say they want to be famous and those who are liars.
I think of myself more as a workhorse actor. It will be hot and cold and up and down, but no one will kick me out of the business.
[on his wife, Kyra Sedgwick] Kyra is a woman who made all the wrong choices when it comes to being an actress. She got married too young, had a kid and then had another kid.
[on L.A.] That's where the industry is. There is a tremendous amount of business you can do just by walking through restaurants and just being there.
I want to see the numbers that prove that show-business marriages are any less successful than other marriages. It's just very public when they fail.
[on the Oscar season] I call it the bitter season, because year after year, I've seen it come and go and not been a member of the club. And yet I've continued to make a living as an actor.
I've heard people say you have to love the characters you play. I don't feel that way. I've played a lot of people that I don't love at all. What's important to me is to try to make them real.
There are two types of actors: performers and personalities.
[on keeping a successful marriage] Keep your fights clean and your sex dirty.
I worked for four days on JFK (1991) but it changed everything. It led to A Few Good Men (1992), The River Wild (1994), Murder in the First (1995) and Apollo 13 (1995). It was definitely a turning point.
Most actors want to have the world look at us and love us, and those who say that that's not really a driving force for them, I don't believe.
[on Tremors (1990)] I'm sorry, I hate to toot my own horn, but it's a very good movie. They sent me the script and I loved it. No other actors were really responding to it. I saw the movie as this fantastic, subtle comedy.
[on Quicksilver (1986)] Not a good movie.
[on She's Having a Baby (1988)] One of my favorite movies I've ever done. I think it got the short end of the stick. It was very painful for me that it got such a critical bashing. Nobody went to see it.
[on making End of the Line (1987)] An independent film with a small, fun part I wanted to do. I mean, these things come along where somebody says it'll take a couple of weeks and I go for it. The big draw for me was meeting Levon Helm.
I'm obsessed with zombies. I like watching zombie movies and I read zombie books.
I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don't think that's only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings.
I have a natural swagger.
I don't have to do the lead. If I dig a part I'll do it.
I don't look like I used to. Here's the thing: The greatest justice in life is that your vision and your looks tend to go simultaneously.
[on the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game] I thought it was a joke at my expense: "Can you believe, in less than six steps we can connect Kevin Bacon to Laurence Olivier, one of the greats?".
I think career planning is an oxymoron.
LA's a really great place to be if your movie's number one at the box office, or if your television show's a hit.
I'm not a public speaker. I don't even like making toasts. It hits me in a way I can't really explain. I've literally sat with a therapist to try to figure out what that is, because I'm such a public persona.
Things could be worse. You remember that, and you go on with your life.
Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.
