More quotes by Alan Rickman
I get stage fright and gremlins in my head saying: 'You're going to forget your lines'.
Alan Rickman
Who I am gets in the way of people looking innocently at the parts I play.
Alan Rickman
Market forces impose certain rules before a film can actually get made.
Alan Rickman
So you can't judge the character you're playing ever.
Alan Rickman
When I am asked about influences, I always say I bow down to Fred Astaire, because when you look at him dancing you never look at his extremities, do you? You look at his centre. What you never see is the hours of work that went into the routines, you just see the breathtaking spirit and freedom.
Alan Rickman
I think there's some connection between absolute discipline and absolute freedom.
Alan Rickman
I think every English actor is nervous of a Newcastle accent.
Alan Rickman
Nothing gives me as much pleasure as travelling. I love getting on trains and boats and planes.
Alan Rickman
Older people say, 'Oh I loved you in 'Sense and Sensibility,'' and that's the only film they want to talk about. Equally, there are people who only want to talk about 'Galaxy Quest.' And there's a whole bunch of teenagers who only want to talk about 'Dogma.'
Alan Rickman
That's it then. Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans, no more merciful beheadings, and call off Christmas.
Alan Rickman
Acting touches nerves you have absolutely no control over.
Alan Rickman
I am hellbent on defying your expectations, at every turn, and even if you don't like what's being done, I dare you to find it uninteresting.
Alan Rickman
Any actor who judges his character is a fool - for every role you play you've got to absorb that character's motives and justifications.
Alan Rickman
Talent is an accident of genes - and a responsibility.
Alan Rickman
I don't play villains, I play very interesting people
Alan Rickman
My idea of a real treat is Magic Mountain without standing in line.
Alan Rickman
I approach every part I'm asked to do and decide to do from exactly the same angle: who is this person, what does he want, how does he attempt to get it, and what happens to him when he doesn't get it, or if he does?
Alan Rickman
Those of you who are not aware of my brilliant career as a stand up comic, I'm not aware of it either so we might well wonder what we're doing here.
Alan Rickman
I do take my work seriously and the way to do that is not to take yourself too seriously.
Alan Rickman
I've never been able to plan my life. I just lurch from indecision to indecision.
Alan Rickman
