More quotes by Alan Rickman
My definition of palatable might be slightly different from yours.
Alan Rickman
If people want to know who I am, it is all in the work.
Alan Rickman
England in the '60s and the '70s was everything that history has said it was phenomenally exciting, musically.
Alan Rickman
I suppose with any good writing and interesting characters, you can have that awfully overused word [...] - a jouuuuuurney.
Alan Rickman
The first time that I came to New York to work properly was the mid-'80s, but I was doing eight shows a week. You have no life. Going to a punk rock club - or whatever the music was at that time - would not have been on my agenda.
Alan Rickman
I never expected to have any kind of film career, to be honest. It was all a bit of a surprise. But I was in a big hit play on Broadway. America, as many people will say, says yes more often than we do. And so I was suddenly surrounded by people saying yes. But I was aware that was 'cause of what I was in. It had a big impact.
Alan Rickman
I have a love-hate relationship with white silk.
Alan Rickman
I've learned, having been on a lot of sets, the good news is that by definition you are surrounded by experts. They get fired if they're not - unlike in the theatre!
Alan Rickman
Somebody with Debbie Reynolds' features doesn't get cast as the Wicked Witch.
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
A lot of the time I hate the theater. You think, 'I have to climb Mount Everest, again, tonight.' Oh, the theater is a scary place to be.
Alan Rickman
There's a voice inside you that tells you what you should do.
Alan Rickman
If you spend any time in Los Angeles, there's only one topic of conversation.
Alan Rickman
I mean, language fascinates me anyway, and different words have different energies and you can change the whole drive of a sentence.
Alan Rickman
You can lull the paying customers as long as they get slapped.
Alan Rickman
What is it about actors? God knows I get bored with actors talking about themselves.
Alan Rickman
The point about a great story is that it's got a beginning, a middle and end.
Alan Rickman
I don't play villains, I play very interesting people
Alan Rickman
I never talk about 'Harry Potter' because I think that would rob children of something that's private to them. I think too many things get explained, so I hate talking about it.
Alan Rickman
I was a student in London in the '70s, so CBGB really wasn't on my radar at all. Obviously, I was aware of the emergence of the Police in England and as an art student, I was very aware of David Byrne, but I suppose my musical taste at that time certainly didn't stretch towards the Dead Boys or the Ramones.
