Macaulay Culkin quotes - page 2

I do have a family, and I do have friends, and so-called friends, and acquaintances, and many other people I see only around Christmas time. Maybe they could vouch for me. Maybe they could testify to my existence and save a part of me that thinks I'm no better than a bag of potato chips. (Macaulay Culkin)
Because of what I did when I was 10 years old, I'm not living from paycheck to paycheck, and I can do things because I want to do them. View quote

I did 14 movies in six years, I had a cartoon TV show, and I don't want to do that again. I just want to make unique pieces of art. That's why I quit everything when I was 14 and sat around for eight years before I did another movie. View quote
Macaulay Culkin
I don't mind if somebody comes up to me and shakes my hand, but if I'm in the middle of a restaurant and somebody asks me for a picture, I can be a jerk and say no, or I can say yes and draw more attention to myself, which is exactly the opposite of what I want. View quote
Macaulay Culkin

As a senior in high school, you figure out what you want to do with your life. I asked myself if I wanted to get back into acting and thought: 'Yes, but under my own terms and nothing like it was before.' View quote
Macaulay Culkin
Michael Jackson and I talk all the time. I think we understand each other in a way that most people can't understand either of us. View quote
Macaulay Culkin
Acting found me. I thought maybe I should try to find it again. We'll see. (Macaulay Culkin)
I'm not expecting the American literary community to welcome me with open arms. To them I'm just some schmuck kid who wrote some book. View quote
Macaulay Culkin
Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money, but I'm very picky. View quote
Macaulay Culkin
All the child-star clichés. I've tried very hard to avoid them all. View quote
Macaulay Culkin
