More quotes by Anthony Hopkins
I remember coming to New York, in 1974 to do a play here called Equis. And I remember the first morning getting up and walking around the streets and I thought, I'm home. I felt really at peace here.
Anthony Hopkins
I love the hour in makeup. It gives you time to think and have a cup of coffee. It's my favorite part of the day.
Anthony Hopkins
I've got a great sense of humor.
Anthony Hopkins
Acting is constricted because you have the lines. But I improvise with it and what I learn on the set. I improvise rhythms and just changes.
Anthony Hopkins
Living with reality is a very good trick, it gives you tremendous freedom and it changes the structure of the molecules of your soul by living with reality because you don't expect anything anymore. Which is a weird paradox.
Anthony Hopkins
The reward is in the doing of it.
Anthony Hopkins
I've felt like an outsider all my life. It comes from my mother, who always felt like an outsider in my father's family. She was a powerful woman, and she motivated my father.
Anthony Hopkins
What I do is just go over and over and over my lines and learn the script so well that I can just be easy and relaxed. That's the way I always work.
Anthony Hopkins
The knighthood was a tremendous honour, I don't dismiss it. But I feel embarrassed by the flowery, theatrical stuff that goes with being an actor.
Anthony Hopkins
People don't always tell you what they are thinking. They just see to it that you don't advance in life.
Anthony Hopkins
Mortality is the great rescuer, it finally takes you out of everything, and that makes life good.Read Carl Jung. It makes life richer because this is it none of us know where we go and this is the fun of it.
Anthony Hopkins
I wanted revenge I wanted to dance on the graves of a few people who made me unhappy. It's a pretty infantile way to go through life - I'll show them - but I've done it, and I've got more than I ever dreamed of.
Anthony Hopkins
I've been composing music all my life and if I'd been clever enough at school I would like to have gone to music college.
Anthony Hopkins
I don't know what I believe.
Anthony Hopkins
If you do things, whether it's acting or music or painting, do it without fear - that's my philosophy. Because nobody can arrest you and put you in jail if you paint badly, so there's nothing to lose.
Anthony Hopkins
My life has been a kind of mystery to me. By all my logical, linear thinking I started out in school as a little boy, I didn't have a clue about anything. What they were talking about in school, couldn't play sports, couldn't learn, and I was bottom of the class.
Anthony Hopkins
When I was a young guy, I knew everything. Now I know very little. I know less and less as the time goes on.
Anthony Hopkins
If you don't follow through on your dreams, you might as well be a vegetable.
Anthony Hopkins
We all dream. We dream vividly, depending on our nature. Our existence is beyond our explanation, whether we believe in God or we have religion or we're atheist.
Anthony Hopkins
I just learn my lines, go on set. Do my preparation, whatever that is. Have a cup of coffee. Say hello to everyone. And be friendly. Action - and then do it.
