• Quotes

  1. "Why should I ever get fed up talking about my father? He was a brilliant, colorful man who left us with thousands of memories. Most people remember his films, but I've got anecdotes and advice and episodes of real life tucked away inside my head. I'm always amazed that there are more to come out, but one day something triggers something off and a new memory of him emerges, like a ghost." Guardian: Here Comes the Son
  2. "Well if a film can create a discussion then that's a good thing because it means it's living on." ABC: Nicole Kidman, Lauren Bacall and Danny Huston: 'Birth'
  3. "I carry the Huston name with a lot of pride, and I'm not bashful about using it to get my foot in the door but I would hate to embarrass that name and let my family down." BBC: Actor Huston on The Proposition
