More quotes by 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.

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

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.
Bill Nighy
I do think 3D has seriously improved, since I was a boy. It's fabulous.

If you are supposed to be villainous and have some sort of agenda, I like the idea of delivering that kind of character in a perfectly well-mannered way.
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
I think in the old days, everybody used to act really quickly because Hollywood was built by theatre people.
Bill Nighy
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.
Bill Nighy
I never go on the net or the web, or whatever it's called.
Bill Nighy
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.
Bill Nighy
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.
Bill Nighy
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.'
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
I'm always happy when actors get rich, because the odds on it are so long!
Bill Nighy
I'm crazy about James Brown. I'm crazy about soul music. And then the blues. Rhythm and blues.
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
I have nothing against romanticism. I'm all for it. I'm helpless in the face of romance.
Bill Nighy
One of the reasons I like a suit is because I've never been that keen on my body. The shape a suit presents is always going to be better than anything I can do.
