More quotes by Alan Cumming
You should *have* an experience it shouldn't just *be* an experience.
Alan Cumming
Macbeth was the first play I ever read.
Alan Cumming
A sweaty Macbeth with blood on his arms coming in fresh from the battle doesn't interest me.
Alan Cumming
Actually I like working kind of fast, because if you got it, why bother doing it over and over?
Alan Cumming
Once in a while it's good to challenge yourself in a way that's really daunting.
Alan Cumming
Romeo is the most misunderstood character in literature, I think. He's hardcore to play because he's displaying the characteristics of Hamlet at the beginning, and, well, then everything else happens.
Alan Cumming
Sometimes people get really sniffy about the films you choose if you've done more dramatic projects or you're classically trained.
Alan Cumming
I think people deny themselves by putting themselves into categories.
Alan Cumming
Sometimes people do you a favour when they drop out of your life.
Alan Cumming
I'm Scottish first, and it's odd to hear that I'm a Scottish-American.
Alan Cumming
Some things are just really difficult to do. That's what I find hard. I usually can find a way to do a character to make it real and work. But sometimes it's a struggle sustaining that, because there's such a level of personal involvement and personal, physical, and emotional distraughtness.
Alan Cumming
I love a film where I get squished by two dumpsters or I fly through the air.
Alan Cumming
If you are a cabaret artist and you are mostly singing other people's songs, you're asking them to rethink a song, listen to it in a different way. The most impact you can have while asking them to re-listen to a song is if it's a song they know very well.
Alan Cumming
There are some days when you don't feel like being Alan Cumming.
Alan Cumming
I don't feel I'm a compulsive person. I multitask. I'm really well-organised, and I have lots of people to help me.
Alan Cumming
It is not hard to feel like an outsider. I think we have all felt like that at one time or another.
Alan Cumming
Kids are more genuine. When they come up and want to talk to you, they don't have an agenda. It's more endearing and less piercing to your aura.
Alan Cumming
I'm quite good, though I say it myself, at making strangers feel at ease.
Alan Cumming
My feeling about work is it's much more about the experience of doing it than the end product. Sometimes things that are really great and make lots of money are miserable to make, and vice versa.
Alan Cumming
He ... knew, in that instant, that his life would not be an easy one-he was different, he looked different, he thought differently.
