There are unwanted emotions and pain that goes along with any birth.

I learned early on to stay away from gossip magazines and reviews. That stuff just makes you unhappy, and I know actors that read everything that's written about them and they're miserable. You can choose what to let into your life.

From John Travolta

I think my friend Tom Hanks knows me. He understands me very well. He's always had a sort of parental feeling toward me. He knows I'm a big mush ball, which is just part of my personality.

From John Travolta

Scientology is one of the least homophobic religions. It's not very interested in the body at all.

From John Travolta

Playing a bad guy is always a freeing experience, because you don't have the same envelope of restrictions as you have playing a good guy. Good guys restrain themselves; they kind of have their moral fiber cut out for them in varying degrees.

From John Travolta

So you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna do something really outrageous, I'm gonna tell the truth.

From John Travolta

For a while, I was saying 'no' way too often. I turned down 'An Officer and A Gentleman,' 'Splash' and 'Midnight Express.' I could name you tons more. I would go off and experience life instead of working - I was learning to fly jets, went on an African safari, sailed the Caribbean - which wasn't necessarily bad.

From John Travolta

Something can happen in your life, and you might want and need something different from your spouse. Most people forget that you have to create relationships. The allure of the first years settles down, and at that moment, you better start creating it; otherwise, you're going to lose out.

From John Travolta

Acting is a mix of luck and choice. I got lucky.

From John Travolta

You feel alive to the degree that you feel you can help others.
