This is an odd profession, and sometimes people get jealous, but I haven't really experienced any of that. Everyone's been really happy for me, which is really, really great.

When are you ever settled enough to have kids?
Benedict Cumberbatch
I'm a Prince of Wales Trust ambassador, so I'm all about giving youth an education, a voice and a chance to not take the wrong road.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I've seen and swam and climbed and lived and driven and filmed. Should it all end tomorrow, I can definitely say there would be no regrets. I am very lucky, and I know it. I really have lived 5,000 times over.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I struggle to learn by rote. I've had meltdowns on set. Which is embarrassing and shameful.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Talking about class terrifies me. There is no way of winning.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I try to work hard. I'm really proud of what I get to do as a living. I still pinch myself. But I also know it's a craft, and I can get better at it and learn every time I do it. So I try to work hard no matter what the task is.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I want to be better at staying connected.
Benedict Cumberbatch
You'd have to be pretty hard-nosed not to feel some sympathy for the guy [Doctor Strange].
Benedict Cumberbatch
It was great. I got to hang out with him [Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins], and I kept a straight face for a bit and then I started giggling because I know Martin, I don't know Bilbo. For Martin to be sitting there playing Bilbo is amazing. He's going to be amazing, he's going to be fantastic in this film.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I'm always playing characters with intellects profoundly superior to mine. That's great fun, even though it's as much a fantasy for me as for the people watching me.
Benedict Cumberbatch
It still makes me giggle that I'm paid to act.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Sherlock [Holmes] is on the side of the angels, but don't think he's one of them. He uses similar means, but it seems to be for a better purpose, one would hope.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I have pitfalls. I have emotional responses to things that are really not about me. They're about other people.
Benedict Cumberbatch
We have a lot more unlikely heroes now. It’s not just the guy with guns—it’s the guy with brains.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I drive a motorbike, so there is the whiff of the grim reaper round every corner, especially in London.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I've realised now that the reality of children is you have to be in the right place with the right person.
Benedict Cumberbatch
[on BBC's Sherlock] It's a rare challenge, both for the audience and an actor, to take part in something with this level of intelligence and wit. You have to really enjoy it. It's a form of mental and physical gymnastics.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Mystique is rare now, isn't it? There aren't that many enigmas in this modern world.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I've never been front and centre as an iconic American character [like in Doctor Strange]. Day to day, you know you're painting on a very big canvas.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I was thrilled with how the first series of 'Sherlock' was received. It was such great fun to film, which makes it so rewarding when something you enjoy is so well received.
