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.

I'm not a royal family watcher.

You get older and you see yourself and say, 'God, he's old, who's that?'

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.

Image
I got briefly mistaken for someone who might be good in bed, which was very, very good.
Bill Nighy
Image
I have a perfectly average skewed perception of myself. We often don't know what we're like.

Image
I'm not a financial expert. The Robin Hood tax seems to me a very simple and beautiful idea. I don't see the problem.

You tell yourself that you're not auditioning but of course you work like crazy, and you prepare like mad. And you think, Well, I won't get that job. But maybe they'll have another job sometime, and they'll remember that I was good.

I don't do plays without jokes anymore. I've retired from those plays. I think it's bad manners to invite people to sit in the dark for two and a half hours and not tell them the joke.

With stage, you feel completely like you're just in a bubble. I love not being able to see anything. I love coming out and I can't see anything because the lights are so bright and it's pitch black. That's ideal for me, that's when I have the best time.

I've always slightly worried the kids who play football around my house. They know I'm an actor, but felt sorry for me because they'd never seen anything I've done.

I quoted David Hare one of his lines the other day to illuminate whatever point we were trying to make in the conversation, and I said 'What play was that?' and he said 'It was your line, you said it about a hundred and fifty times in The Vertical Hour.'

Standing in front of a fake mountain with fake snow falling and seven girls dressed as Santarettes will stay in my memory.

I never go on the net or the web, or whatever it's called.

If you ask any actor What single thing would make you really, really happy? Among the top five things they'd say is not having to audition anymore.

One of my great regrets, and I don't have many, is that I spent too long putting people's status and reputation ahead of their more important qualities. I learned far too late in life that a long list of letters after someone's name is no guarantee of compassion, kindness, humour, all the far more relevant stuff.

I'm not good at watching myself which I think is perfectly natural. I don't give myself a hard time about it. I am the worst critic.

I am a fan of rehearsal. I like doing it [scene] over and over and over and over until it looks like you never did it before.

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.

The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.
