Billy Bob Thornton

I think television's amazing, and I'm going to do more of it. I love it. I think it's a great place to be, but I'm still going to keep doing movies too.

When people wear shoes that don't fit them, it says something about their soul. Generally, I think it means they are good people.

I love independent film so much, and that's kind of where I made my mark.

If you love somebody let them know every day.

I believe in running through the rain and crashing into the person you love and having your lips bleed on each other.

One of the greatest things about getting older as an actor is that you settle into who you are and you don't begrudge everyone else what they have.

I've danced one time in my life. It was the most mortifying experience I ever had.

One of the great regrets of my life is that I don't play piano.

If I hadn't gotten into the entertainment business, I would be probably making minimum wage still.

Movies these days have made killers into funny people. What's that all about? I've got kids and family and friends, and I don't like bad things. I don't think they're funny, and it's irresponsible to make movies that don't show you how that's not good.

My wheelhouse is intense characters who have a certain sympathetic streak and also a sense of humor.

If you're in scenes with a guy you know really well in a comedy, you tend to crack each other up too much.
