  • "I couldn't see my father's films because they were restricted and we didn't have videos or DVDs back then."
  • "I did a play called Throne of Straw when I was 11, at the Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles. It became really clear to me at that point that I enjoyed acting more than any other experience I was having."
  • "I liked the ceremony, the ritual of preparing cocaine, as much as doing it. I did it for a year, loved it, then stopped. Now I feel the same way about cooking."
  • "There are two things that Jack Bauer never does. Show mercy, and go to the bathroom."
  • "There's a confidence that comes from youth and not knowing better. But there comes a point, as an actor, when you do know better, and that is when the fear starts."
  • "When we shoot 24, there are so many things I have to worry about, from the script to technical things to my performance, that I don't have a second to be bored or take anything for granted. We produce 24 hours of film a season, which is like making 12 movies."
  • "Youth is an amazing thing: I think back on when we did The Lost Boys, and I didn't think I could do anything wrong."

Quotes About Kiefer Sutherland
Quote: "His whole life is now concentrated on "24". Those bags you see under his eyes are not just for the character! He's always short on sleep, but he's extremely happy - and that's all that matters"
Who said/wrote it: Shirley Douglas (mother)


Quote: "I have no objective viewpoint of his career, none at all. The series that he's doing (24) just takes your breath away. It really does. You're immediately sucked into the vortex of it. He did come to me one night when I was living in Los Angeles, this would've been a good 22 years ago. He stood at the end of the bed, and he said, 'Can I do my audition for you'? And I was, 'Oh God, puh-lease, oh, dear, Okay,' And he did it, and it was brilliant. I was so relieved. And he said, "Well, that's the way they want me to do it, can I show you how I want to do it?' - and so he did it again, completely different. And it was way better. My hair stood up. I don't even remember whether he got the part, but I knew he'd be OK. He was wonderful."
Who said/wrote it: Donald Sutherland (father)

Quote: "Two seconds before the camera rolls, the guy just clicks in faster then anyone I've ever seen. He fleshes things out brilliantly. And he's one of the best-listening actors I've worked with. He has the sweetest face I've ever seen - and a very old soul."
Who said/wrote it: Meg Ryan (co-star, Promised Land)


Quote: "Kiefer doesn't need to be a perfect hero. I admire that. He's not afraid of looking ugly, of looking tired, of being a villain. He's afraid of being mediocre. He doesn't need the approval of an audience the way some stars do"
Who said/wrote it: Joel Schumacher (director)
