Steve Buscemi People Quotations

I've never had a grand plan. I've only just tried to keep open to many different possibilities, have fun and work with people who are passionate about what they do.

I suppose things are better now, but ... I don't know. People still hate each other, they just know how to hide it better.

I could never have imagined the films I've done and the people I've worked with when I was starting out; I certainly did not have a career path.

Just because people want to eat the burger doesn't mean they want to meet the cow.

I never made a daring rescue, which is the story people want to hear. I did go to my share of fires.

I usually get freaked out if I'm in a situation where a lot of people recognise me at once.

I like telling stories about people with problems. I can't really put it much simpler than that.

I don't tend to think of these characters as losers. 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.

All these directors, and I would include the Coen brothers and Quentin, have a very unique vision of what they want. They listen to ideas and make people feel like everyone is making the film.

My dad had a temper. I have a temper. Most people I know have a temper. And I think it comes out mostly with your family. I don't think it's unique to the Buscemis, but it's something I've been able to tap into when I play certain roles.

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.
