I've never been offered a job that I turned down and regretted. I didn't have Stanley Kubrick offer me something and me say no.

Curtis Armstrong

I turned down the first script offered to me, and the second. I lay on my back one day under an umbrella, in the garden, reading the third, and wondered why I had turned down the first.

Conrad Veidt

Producer Michael Davies - who did 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' - offered me a TV show, but I turned it down. I wasn't negotiating: It just didn't sound like a good idea. Then he offered me another show, and I said, 'No thanks' again. When I heard about 'Win Ben Stein's Money,' I thought, 'OK, that sounds like a good idea.'

Jimmy Kimmel

I think I felt compelled in a way because if I hadn't written the part, I never would have been offered the part. There are at least 10 guys who would have been offered the part before me.

Zach Braff

I never turned down a movie because they wouldn't give me enough money.

Jason Patric

Wayne Newton

I turned down 'American Gigolo.' There are many films - like 'Ghostbusters' - that I turned down... The first one I did was 'Foul Play' with Goldie Hawn, but I turned down 'Animal House' - I turned that down.

Chevy Chase

I was never turned down because I was a Muslim. I was turned down because I was not right for the part.

Juventus offered me the opportunity to sign in 2017 and I turned it down. I just didn't feel the timing was right.

Eniola Aluko

Somebody asked me what do you regret. I said, well I was offered the role of Maverick in 'Top Gun' and I turned it down.

Scott Baio

I was offered more work after the Oscar. When I was younger, I would take whatever I was offered because it was money and work and experience. In a way, choosing is the hard part. I know that's a luxury problem, but it's true. I try to go where passion takes me.

Rachel Weisz

When I was in prison, a Colombian drug lord, offered me $5 million in cash to manipulate a computer system so that he would be released. I turned him down.

Kevin Mitnick

I've been offered a peerage already, and turned it down.

Richard Desmond

I turned down a film that was offered to me in the very early '80s, a Scorsese film. That probably wasn't a good career move.

Christopher Lloyd

When I was at UCLA, the Harlem Globetrotters offered me a million dollars to come play for them. I turned it down because my education was just as important as playing ball.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

I work seriously with complete integrity. I never, never, never have offered a part to anyone who didn't deserve it, and I've never not delivered when I do offer a part. My word is better than a contract.
