When you draw a western correctly, you create such drama, such dilemma that you think you almost don't want to admit who you might have been.

It's never bothered me to work hard. I've probably worked on some of the longest schedules in movie history.

I think I'm a pretty right down the middle guy. I just think that's kind of who I am. I'm not afraid of my own journey.
Kevin Costner -
If it's fifty years from now and it still has the same value, that's a movie.
Kevin Costner -
I think it's hard for people to suspend the era they live in and understand the decisions that had to be made often during the western frontier era were life and death. You had to be resourceful and on your feet to try to figure out somebody. You didn't have the benefit of knowing who somebody was.

It was an experience of a lifetime to sit only a few feet away from him Castro and watch him relive an experience he lived as a very young man.

I think I'm a pretty right down the middle guy. I just think that's kind of who I am. I'm not affraid of my own journey.
Kevin Costner -
You can spend your life trying to be popular, and that's a tricky business. You can just try to be true to yourself.

If I had a choice of having a woman in my arms or shooting a bad guy on a horse, I'd take the horse.

Here's the thing - the accent is cool. It's like a girl with big breasts - they get your attention first.

My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world. My children look at me for a question and then they quickly look away because they know that I'm not going to know how to make Super Mario or do anything.
Kevin Costner -
Audiences trust Westerns when you hit the right tone. I think they're not in vogue, but they will always be in vogue when you hit the right note.
Kevin Costner -
There's actually a big difference between story and character. A great story doesn't make a great movie. A great script, which defines its moments and characters can become a great movie. You can make a movie that makes a lot of money and it may or may not have great story or great characters.
Kevin Costner -
I think I just wanted to work when I finally came to Hollywood. That's what it was. I wanted to get a job, and then I wanted to get the second one.

Sex and golf are the two things you can enjoy even if you're not good at them.

Some people come to you because if you're in their movie, it'll help them raise money. And some people come to you because they think you're the person to play the part.
Kevin Costner -
When a defining moment comes along, you define the moment, or the moment defines you.
Kevin Costner -
We recognize ourselves in Westerns, ... I believe the Western can orchestrate moments around reality. The reality can be as entertaining to us as the lie.
Kevin Costner -
Conventional wisdom is so scary because what if everybody's wrong?

I think one of the first things to go as people's lives start to go down is their dreams. Dreams should be the last thing to go - dreams are the things you go down with. If you're left clinging to a piece of driftwood in the middle of the ocean, I'd put on it the word dreams.
Kevin Costner -
I have seen soldiers panic at the first sight of battle, and a squire pulling arrows from his body to fight and save his dying horse. Nobility is not a birthright, but is defined by one's actions.
Kevin Costner -
I believe in the soul ... the small of a woman's back, the hanging curveball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.

Life's better when it's fun. Boy, that's deep, isn't it?
