More quotes by Bill Nighy
I find it hard to relax around any man who's got the second button on his shirt undone.
Bill Nighy
I like American black soul music, that was my first big enthusiasm.
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
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.
Bill Nighy
In the street, people talk to you about all kinds of things, but by far, the most number of people talk to me about Love, Actually.
Bill Nighy
Anti-Semitism and Fascism have a long, mysterious, bewildering, poisonous and vile history and it's not exclusive to the Germans.
Bill Nighy
It's probably healthier to find fame later in life.
Bill Nighy
The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.
Bill Nighy
The job is the same - to attempt to make it sound like you've never said it before and as if it's just occurred to you. And that's the same whether you're on camera or whether you're on stage in a room full of people.
Bill Nighy
I'm always happy when actors get rich, because the odds on it are so long!
Bill Nighy
I have nothing against romanticism. I'm all for it. I'm helpless in the face of romance.
Bill Nighy
There is something, yeah, I mean traditionally it's more fun to play bad guys than it is good guys and when you're playing a bad guy, yeah, the fun in it is to see how scary you can be, how horrible you can be. And it's surprising what you come up with.
Bill Nighy
When it comes to casual clothing, my enthusiasm for clothes starts to waver.
Bill Nighy
More people saw me in 'Love Actually' than had seen me in everything else I had ever done up to that point.
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
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.
Bill Nighy
You have all these plans to act, and maybe do it rather elegantly, and then they turn the rain machine on.
Bill Nighy
I do think 3D has seriously improved, since I was a boy. It's fabulous.
Bill Nighy
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.
Bill Nighy
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.
Bill Nighy
