I really have no interest in delivering the iambic pentameter, I just want to kill myself. I don't mind other people doing it. I say that, but really I don't want to watch other people doing it. I get embarrassed.

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'm a jacket man. And if I'm without one, I am kind of seriously disabled. I don't know how to operate in shirt sleeves.

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.

I know really, really famous people who are terrified every time they walk on to a stage.

When a movie is called 'searingly honest,' it's almost invariably grim and demonstrates how bad things can get.

A way of describing performances that I admire is that there is an absence of careerism. It's a clumsy way of describing it but it sort of does it for me.

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.

My dad had a personal style which was very attractive. It was quite reserved and quite elegant, and it was infectious.
