[on celebrity] "I have a healthy fear of it. I'm not into the celebrity culture aspect of being an artist. To me it represents extinction. The more people know about you, the less they want to try to figure out what you have to say in your movies, and the less credibility you have. To me it seems: Go do your thing, then get out. That's the best way to do it." (January 14, 2004)
"Nope, no sex scandals yet. But I am open to offers!" (January 14, 2004)
I won't call myself a child actor because that sounds psychotic.
I'm aware of the affection those characters inspired. I feel close to Lloyd in Say Anything... (1989). He was like a super-interesting version of me. Only I'm not as good as him. Whatever part of me is romantic and optimistic, I reached into that to play Lloyd. Of course, now it's all gone. Now I'm just bitter.
I've made 10 good films. The ones that suck I tend to blank out. It's like I never even made them. Well, there aren't 40 that are great, put it that way. But that's fine. Ten is a good batting average. (2007)
(1998 - On his career and life) I feel very blessed, very fortunate, very happy. I love my work, I love my friends, I love my family. There was a period when I didn't work for about two years when I was about 25, 26, and I couldn't imagine what I would do with my life and that was scary. But now I have other things I love. I'm a pretty good kick boxer; I'm a pretty good writer; there are things I could fall back on. And you know how it is--the minute you realize that your options are unlimited, things just start falling into place all around you.
Martian Child was just a movie the studio [New Line Cinema] offered me and it was the best job I could get at the time. It was about a relationship between a guy and another kid, and I thought that was good. It was a sweet movie. They offered it to me and that was the extent of that. Grace Is Gone was something I REALLY wanted to do.

约翰·库萨克——这个名字与“实力最被低估的演员”、“最希望哪位明星扮演生活中的自己”、“女士最理想晚餐男伴”和“最具21世纪性格的实力派明星”连在一起。
这位非传统、远离主流的性格小生，生于一个传统的爱尔兰天主教家庭。在这个堪称演艺世家的家庭中，受家庭艺术氛围的影响，这个名叫约翰的小家伙似乎注定与演艺脱不了干系。
在电影圈近20年的自我磨炼中，与伍迪·艾伦、卡梅隆·克劳等大牌导演和阿尔·帕西诺、尼古拉斯·凯奇、苏珊·萨兰登、约翰·马尔科维奇等演技名家的合作，库萨克的表演达到了“演则无所不尽其极”的境界。库萨克希望在影片和角色中找到的，不只是学习和锻炼演技的机会，更是从中展现真正自我与希望的契机。也许，在非主流日益成为一种普遍现象的好莱坞，库萨克这种有些另类的表演风格和处世态度，正是他逐渐受到认可的原因之一。
库萨克对自己的表演工作要求极其严格，对表演他有一句名言：“我会做你想要我做的任何事，你让我往左我就往左，你让我往右我就往右，怎么着都行。”与他合作过的许多大导演都作证“他真的能做到”。他看起来文质彬彬，却也和尼古拉斯·凯奇一样，乐于手端M16机枪大声嘶喊。《人物》、《时代周刊》、《洛杉矶时报》、《滚石》等重量级报刊杂志也异口同声称他为“最棒的演员”。
