More quotes by Alan Rickman
I love working in New York theater.
Alan Rickman
I'm very aware that when one is acting in the theater, you do become kind of animal about it. And you're reliant on instincts rather than tact a lot of the time.
Alan Rickman
I'm a quite serious actor who doesn't mind being ridiculously comic.
Alan Rickman
You can lull the paying customers as long as they get slapped.
Alan Rickman
Give me a window and I'll stare out it.
Alan Rickman
I have every sympathy for writers. It's a mystery to me what they do. I can edit. I can cross out and say, 'I'm not saying that' or, 'How about we move this to here? Wouldn't that make that bit of the story better?' But where any of it comes from is beyond me. I will never write a play or a novel.
Alan Rickman
It is an ancient need to be told stories. But the story needs a great storyteller. Thanks for all of it, Jo.
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
Maverick is a word which appeals to me more than misfit. Maverick is active, misfit is passive.
Alan Rickman
Talent is an accident of genes - and a responsibility.
Alan Rickman
I don't think it's right that everybody knows everything about me.
Alan Rickman
I can only see my limitations. That's just who I am.
Alan Rickman
I have a photograph at home of Fred Astaire from the knees down with his feet crossed. It's kind of inspiring because it reminds me his feet were bleeding at the end of rehearsals. Yet when you watch him, all you see is freedom. It's a reminder of what the job is about in general, not just being in musicals.
Alan Rickman
I have a love-hate relationship with white silk.
Alan Rickman
Somebody with Debbie Reynolds' features doesn't get cast as the Wicked Witch.
Alan Rickman
I think there should be laughs in everything. Sometimes, it's a slammed door, a pie in the face or just a recognition of our frailties.
Alan Rickman
What is it about actors? God knows I get bored with actors talking about themselves.
Alan Rickman
I think worrying things are going on in England - a real apathy.
Alan Rickman
If you could build a house on a trampoline, that would suit me fine.
Alan Rickman
If you spend any time in Los Angeles, there's only one topic of conversation.
Alan Rickman
