Quote by -Bill Pullman
Rural towns aren't always idyllic. It's easy to feel trapped and be aware of social hypocrisy.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
Truthfully, I almost avoided 'While You Were Sleeping,' because I find those romantic comedies kind of precious, and they're full of lines that leave you feeling a little bewildered when you say them.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
I do take lots of time off between projects, but when the right thing comes along, I don't like to turn it down, I've been doing this for a decade, and I remember what it was like when I started. You spend maybe five percent of your time actually doing it, and the rest of the time, you're trying to get that five percent.
Quote by -Bill Pullman

Quote by -Bill Pullman
I'm not the first one to say it, but that time onstage is a heightened sense of present tense.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
Globalisation is happening so fast it's confusing for people, and tolerance is threatened.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
We've seen with Brexit and other things that there's a dark impulse to be petulant and frustrated with complicated solutions.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
I enjoy that with theater, you can just go into a room with a paper bag lunch: there're no cables, no electricity. It's the purest experience.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
I always loved asking everybody when I arrived in England, from the drivers who picked me up to the people at the hotel to people I met when I was walking in the park, almost everyone at some point would say, 'Everyone loves Ant & Dec!' From eight to 80.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
I always feel like there are a lot of different types of favourites. There are some that I look to for interesting things, some that I look to for acting things, others that I watch again and again.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
'Zabriskie Point' was a time when I was in a lot of change and flux, and these incredible visuals hit me like they had rearranged the organs in my body. The ending and the free-floating debris and everything is an image that burned itself in my consciousness.
Quote by -Bill Pullman

The first Westerns I saw as a child were those little 8-mm. home movies put out by Castle Films.
Quote by -Bill Pullman
If you are in an Edward Albee play, you say Edward Albee is the greatest playwright of all time... If you're in an Israel Horovitz play, you say Israel Horovitz is the greatest playwright of all time.
