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.

Kiefer Sutherland

The writers keep managing to turn the show in on itself, coming up with something that's well thought-out and miraculous.

Kiefer Sutherland

There are three things we need to do for a band. We need to make a great record; we need to get the record played; and we need to find an audience for the live shows.

Kiefer Sutherland

I've made films that I've given all I had to, that no one has seen. The bottom line is I want to work and I want someone to enjoy it.

Kiefer Sutherland

When Julia and I broke up and I was really scared to go into a market or anywhere because I thought, 'Oh God, everyone must hate me. And that wasn't the case. People said, 'I'm sorry this happened, man. Are you alright?'

Kiefer Sutherland

My whole mood or sense can change by virtue of the music that I'm listening to. It really does affect me on a visceral and emotional level.

Kiefer Sutherland

I think the most attractive thing is a sense of humour. If someone can make you laugh, you've gotten a lot out of the way.

Kiefer Sutherland

I think that the day you've figured out the differences between women and men is the day that you're no longer attracted to women. It's the difference that is so fantastic and frustrating and angering, and really sexy.

Kiefer Sutherland

When you're a young actor you like to go for characters with a bit of flair, so in many films I ended up playing the weirdos. I can assure you I'm not a psycho or a criminal or a bully.

Kiefer Sutherland

My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.

Kiefer Sutherland

I was 20 when my daughter was born, and making all these plans during my wife's pregnancy. I was going to be the perfect father. Once she was born, it was suddenly, 'Oh, my God! I'm a parent!'

Kiefer Sutherland

Some days I'm in better control and can navigate my way through stuff, and other days, not so much.

Kiefer Sutherland

If your ethics in the military, in your training, is going to be counterminded by a one-hour weekly television show, we've got a really big problem.

Kiefer Sutherland

'24' and 20th Century Fox and Sky TV are not responsible for training the U.S. military. It is not our job to do. To me, this is almost as absurd as saying, 'The Sopranos' supports the mafia, and by virtue of that, HBO supports the mafia.'

Kiefer Sutherland

There are aspects of '24' where I love its politics and aspects where I hate them.

Kiefer Sutherland

When I started, with films like 'The Bay Boy' and 'Stand by Me', I look back on those interviews and I'm amazed; there's no mention of my father; it's not even 'son of Donald Sutherland.' I caught a bit of a break in that it never felt like a weight to me.

Kiefer Sutherland

You can't ask the press to service you with everything that they have and not expect some of the other stuff in return if you're going to live your life like I have.

Kiefer Sutherland

I have a very strong political outlook, and that is something I'd like to take more responsibility for in my life. I don't believe in utilising certain aspects of the power I have with celebrity to push that forward, but I would like to make some films that address some of those political issues.

Kiefer Sutherland

I had an unbelievable experience on '24'. We shot 198 episodes, and I was as excited about shooting the 198th as I was the first.

Kiefer Sutherland

I love collecting guitars, even though I can't play well. My favourite guitarists are Richie Blackmore, Jimmy Paige, and John Mayer.
