Steve Buscemi's quotes

  • My favorite review described me as the cinematic equivalent of junk mail. I don't know what that means, but it sounds like a dig.
  • It's weird; I was not a really tough guy in high school, but I end up playing all of these psychopaths and criminals. I don't really care who they are, as long as they are complicated and going through something that I can understand and put across.
  • As much as you tell yourself, 'We made the film and here it is and that is enough,' you would like to come away with something.
  • I don't tend to think of these characters as losers [I play]. I like the struggles that people have, people who are feeling like they don't fit into society, because I still sort of feel that way.
  • My favorite review described me as the cinematic equivalent of junk mail.
