Bill Nighy
Hunger is almost like something the West does. It's almost like the direct result of the way the West performs.

To be serious, the things you really want to relive are things like bedtime with your daughter when she becomes incredibly entertaining 'cause she doesn't want to go to sleep. They're at their most enchanting 'cause they just want to put it off, so they do a cabaret for you. You sit there thinking, Please don't let this end.
Bill Nighy
When I do a play, it's like agreeing to be ill for a couple of months.
Bill Nighy
I'm not a World War II buff. I know a little bit about it, I was taught the other side of the story in school, so it was unfamiliar to me, the idea of a German resistance, and yet it was considerable.
Bill Nighy
I got briefly mistaken for someone who might be good in bed, which was very, very good.
Bill Nighy
As you get older you feel you need to pay more attention to what is around you and relish it. I'm greedy for beauty.
Bill Nighy
When you are in something that you're proud of and it's funny and it's a good night out and all of those things, there's nothing quite like it. The rewards are proportionate to the amount of alarm and distress it causes you.
Bill Nighy
I wanted to be a journalist, I thought it was glamorous and that I'd meet beautiful women in the rain.
Bill Nighy

My dad had a personal style which was very attractive. It was quite reserved and quite elegant, and it was infectious.
Bill Nighy
I would like to change everything, but obviously not everything. I've been incredibly fortunate. I guess everybody would do this, but I'd go back to my younger self and say, Lighten up. Take it easy. Relax. Don't be so anxious about everything. Try to be in the day. Try to not have today stolen from you by anxiety about yesterday or tomorrow.
