More quotes by Benedict Cumberbatch

Benedict Cumberbatch
I think with any characterization there's a point where you empathize, no matter how much of a deviance his or her actions may be from your understanding of humanity.

What's not to look forward to? It's like all the actors in all of the films. It's difficult to get Martin Freeman and I in a room together.

Benedict Cumberbatch
As an actor, to be part of that story's [Marvel univerce ] terrific. I've enjoyed it so much as a fan and now I'm getting to have a go myself.
Benedict Cumberbatch
My massive motivation in life is to make parents proud. But even that has to stop at a point.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Fame is a weird one. You need to distance yourself from it. People see a value in you that you don't see yourself.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Having your adolescence at an all-male boarding school is just crap.
Benedict Cumberbatch
There's another weight of us being in the public eye, which is this presumption that, because your work and your promotion work is very public, your private life should be, too.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I've always wanted to play a spy, because it is the ultimate acting exercise. You are never what you seem.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Talking about class terrifies me. There is no way of winning.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I have pitfalls. I have emotional responses to things that are really not about me. They're about other people.
Benedict Cumberbatch
There's still nearly the same amount of slavery, if not more, in the world today, as there was at the height of the slave trade.
Benedict Cumberbatch
My dad read The Hobbit to me originally when I was young. So, it was the first imaginary landscape I ever had in my head from the written word. It gave me a passion for reading, thanks to my dad's performance of the book.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I'm sort of focused on my long-term goal of carving out a career that's for life, rather than being a flash in the pan.
