Anthony Hopkins
Acting's entertainment. It's not brain surgery.
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
I'm the slowest driver in the world.

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 don't believe in nepotism. I don't much like the idea of parents who interfere.
Anthony Hopkins
Oh, the truth, oh yeah, lot of trouble that got us into, didn't it, over the last maybe thousand years? Hitler knew the truth, so did Stalin, so did Mao Zedong, so did the Inquisition. They all knew the truth and that caused such horror. Certainty is the enemy.
Anthony Hopkins
I worked with Steven Spielberg on Amistad... he seemed so very secure in himself that he let me do things.
Anthony Hopkins
I learn poetry, learn text, and that really keeps you alive.
Anthony Hopkins
Life's too short to deal with other people's insecurities.
Anthony Hopkins
I've got a great sense of humor.
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.
