Tom Sizemore

“Acting is never done. We're trying to keep it real and make sure that you're entertained and it seems unrehearsed.”

“I'm a big baby. I'm not tough at all.”

“Although I get so much fan mail from Great Britain, tell me, am I more famous there than Michael Madsen?”

“I'm from Detroit. I was from a kind of violent neighbourhood.”

“I am not as crazy as people think.”

“I don't know if people know that Sylvester Stallone is one of the most decent gentlemen that I've ever met. He's the most consistent friend I've ever had.”

“I know that 20 years from now if anyone asks me one question, it will be, 'What was it like to be in Saving Private Ryan?”

“Being alone is scarier than any boogey man and the reason why I don't choose to see Horror movies as a rule.”

“You must have to want it so badly, if there is any way you can live without it, get out of it. Being an unsuccessful actor is like having a skin disease. Make sure your passion is not misplaced.”

“It was dog food. Beef livers with onions in a can. You open it up and it looks like vomit.”

“I'm afraid of the dark. I'm not kidding.”

“I wouldn't want anything to do with me.”

“Fatherhood didn't change me in the beginning very much.”

“Why am I the way I am? Well, I used to be different.”

“I used to be very rigid because I just wanted to get through it. Now, if I think a scene should go a certain way and it goes another, I'm able to go that new way with ease.”

“It used to be the case that studio executives like Robert Evans, Darryl Zanuck, and David Selznick would put aside money for what they wanted to be great movies regardless of whether they would perform well with the box office.”

“Katherine Heigl was a movie star. I thought she was going to be one, and it was fun to watch this young actress getting better every day.”

“I have an idealistic approach to acting. I want to be great at it, but you can't be great if the scripts are not there and the director doesn't know what he's doing.”

“I play tough guys in movies and behaved like one in front of the press because I thought that was what a man did.”

“I like Michael Bay a whole lot. And Jerry Bruckheimer. But I love Ben Affleck as a person, as a director, as an actor.”
