More quotes by Bill Nighy
I'm not a royal family watcher.
Bill Nighy
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.

Often in America people would assume that [as an English actor] you've had some sort of deep, classical training, or that you're a Shakespeare enthusiast. I have zero interest in me performing Shakespeare.

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.

Bill Nighy
All actors who have been around for a long time, which I have, and have been skint for long periods, which I have, find it difficult to turn down jobs. If I turn anything down my stomach turns over. I feel sick. It feels like gambling.
Bill Nighy
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.
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
I know really, really famous people who are terrified every time they walk on to a stage.
Bill Nighy
I do think 3D has seriously improved, since I was a boy. It's fabulous.
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.
Bill Nighy
When you've been going on about something for a while, it is always satisfying to discover that other people agree with you.
Bill Nighy
I love imaginative representations of a possible near-future, where you look at the technology and you think, Well, yeah, that could really nearly be true. I like those kinds of backgrounds.
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
Standing in front of a fake mountain with fake snow falling and seven girls dressed as Santarettes will stay in my memory.
