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

I did actually sit down with a blank sheet of paper once. I think the phone rang and that was the end of my literary career.

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.

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.

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'm not a royal family watcher.

I'm not an actor who consciously accesses bits of my life, in order to play parts. Obviously, you don't need to have been a father to play one, otherwise everyone who's been a father would be able to act.

I'm always happy when actors get rich, because the odds on it are so long!

I guess part of the hit-man appeal is the solitude. Everybody is lured to the idea of the solitary life.

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

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.

You have all these plans to act, and maybe do it rather elegantly, and then they turn the rain machine on.
