Haley Joel Osment Quotations

I try to keep away from being bigheaded. That's what causes people to lose the acting thing. They start being commercial, and then they stink for the rest of their life. But there are several respected adult actors who were child actors that started very young. I'm going to try and model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster. Just keep learning from the role and not just go for the money.

People love to get scared. People want to see the worst thing that can happen.

When I was a little kid, I loved imagining things. I'd go outside and put on a cape and just imagine I was somebody else.

There's so much to learn about acting and performance in general... I mean, acting is a very complex art, and there are a lot more theories and methods and techniques to it than I think anybody would think.

The best advice my dad ever gave me is that acting is believing. Acting is not acting. It isn't putting on a face and dancing around in a mask. It's believing that you are that character and playing him as if it were a normal day in the life of that character.

I like normal stuff people fear - like spiders and heights. I'm frightened by the unknown, by things that are hard to figure out and get a grip on.

I would be a terrible person to be in a relationship with because I'm either sleeping or at the theater.

I'm going to try and model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster.

I've never had a MySpace or a Facebook page. I avoid that entirely.

It's hard to act terrified when you have 200 crew members around you.
