Famous quotes by Josh Lucas:

"The cool thing about Haskins is that he was basically colorblind. He never understood why white players couldn't play against black players and vice versa. It made no sense to him. He just wanted to find the best players he could recruit — no matter who they were or where they were from, as long as they had potential. It was as simple as that to him."

"That is oftentimes the case with actors because the nomadic element of their life means, in a sense, that they are recreating themselves. I would sort of — in somewhat of an ugly, schizophrenic style — lie in bed the night before I would start a new school and say, 'What do I like from some guy that I was around that I want to be more like?' There are elements of that in acting. I didn't realize that I was preparing for that."

"About 40 years ago, it's stunning to think that the NCAA had never started an all-black team before. No one had done that before."

"He would literally come every day --I had a day off and weekends and stuff -- and pick me up early in the morning in his truck and we'd go out and do what he does every day -- which he goes out to the desert and drinks beers and tells stories."

"His players hated playing for him, but they wound up being lifelong friends, almost across the board."

"Not only did he do that and win a national championship in the process at Texas Western, he became an institution in El Paso. He was never lured by NBA or big-school NCAA money. He felt his job and his integrity were dependent on doing good by his school and town, the same role he had when he arrived there."

"But talk about a great man,"

"a real rattlesnake to play."

"I really wanted to go and be part of the protests."

"It's definitely got more explosions, crashes and thermonuclear fallout than you can decently put in a movie, ... But what also drew me to it is that it is a cautionary tale. Technology makes war seems clean and clinical unless it's you that's being attacked."

"I think I've spent so much time playing characters that are so far away from me and learning how to technically build and how to technically put something on top of you."

"It's the South that maintains the idea that they're different, which is interesting because nobody else really cares."

"Every day is intense and alive, whether it's travel, work, even down time, which there is so little of."

"On A Beautiful Mind, there was a wall of math."

"I've worked with some incredibly difficult directors but my understanding is that a lot of the best people are driven from a place of being extremely challenging and dark within their way."

"I visited those friends who'd just had a baby, and she was washing dishes and he was cleaning the house, and I burst with happiness. And in their minds, they were in this terrible domestic rut."

"I'll look at the script and I'll try to find as many books, movies, and pieces of music that I think are going to feed each scene or the character as a whole."

"I'm right at a time when I'm strongly finding my identity inside of my work."

"When I was on that boat, I realized the only way I would feel creatively challenged was if I totally changed everything about my environment and put myself in a storm, in a sense."

"Wrap parties can be really sad, actually, disorienting."
