Matt Dillon's quotes

  • There were certain perceptions that people had of me, you know...'He's dumb,' or 'he's just got a pretty face,' or 'he's a thug,' or 'he can only do one thing.' I'm not so concerned with that now. Longevity's what it's about.
  • There is something about Cuba. There's no doubt. There's something romantic about the place, even now with everything going on. Just look at the music, among other things. Some of the greatest music ever came out of Cuba in the '50s, '40s and '30s.
  • I won an Indie Spirit Award a few years ago for Drugstore Cowboy (1989), but you never think about awards when you're doing a movie.
  • Comedy is the hardest thing for me.
  • I don't worry about whether a character is likable, as long as the character is believable.
  • Yeah, I was a little wild and on a course for misspent youth, you know what I mean? But my parents made it very clear what was unacceptable, and that saved me. I have to be honest. I got out lucky.
  • [on working with Gene Hackman on Target (1985)] Gene Hackman's good to work with. We really work together, y'know? He gives a lot and likes it when you give. It's hard to find actors you actually deal with, and he deals with you.
  • I like to travel and I love absorbing other cultures.
  • I don't hide out. If you build a wall around yourself it draws people to invade it. Fear is the enemy.
