More quotes by Alan Rickman
Film has to be reflecting the world that we live in, and that's all you want to be a part of. Actors inhabit the same planet as everyone else. It's a weird thing that happens when you're an actor because people hold you up because you somehow embody in parts groups of people or people's hopes or something.
Alan Rickman

Alan Rickman
One of the most, in a weird way, encouraging things a director can say to an actor - I know this as an actor - is when you ask them a question, they say, I don't know - 'cause it means there's some space there for you to find out. And it means that there's going to be a process.
Alan Rickman
I've never been able to plan my life. I just lurch from indecision to indecision.
Alan Rickman
Nothing gives me as much pleasure as travelling. I love getting on trains and boats and planes.
Alan Rickman
I knew with Snape I was working as a double agent, as it turns out, and a very good one at that.
Alan Rickman
Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world.
Alan Rickman
On the screen were some flashback shots of Daniel, Emma and Rupert from ten years ago. They were 12. I have also recently returned from New York, and while I was there, I saw Daniel singing and dancing (brilliantly) on Broadway. A lifetime seems to have passed in minutes.
