Image
My only two constants are to challenge myself and to try not to repeat myself.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I'm terrible. I'm the wrong person to talk to, I really don't know a thing.
Cillian Murphy
Image
It seemed to work on camera. And there's very few films - because you make a lot of films and you meet people and you work very intensely and intimately and then you're gone - but there's a few where you actually make friends, and this [The Fall] was one.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I like being at home with my music and my books. I’ve done all the partying, I’ve done enough partying for four or five people as a young fella. But now I like the quiet life.

Image
I don't have a burning passion to live in America per se but I would certainly like to work there.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I think every director has a different methodology.
Cillian Murphy
Image
There's always a level where you think you can improve and do better. Certainly at the beginning... I did four years of straight theater without ever having a part in a movie, and I remember being far more nervous on a film set than I was on the stage. It took a while for that to become less so.

I always think it's a sign of a truly gifted director when they can move seamlessly between genres.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I think for me with theater, I need to take a break and then fall in love with it again. And then go do it again.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I suppose I've always been attracted to this sort of outsider in general - in literature, in music, politics, whatever - and to the person that is able to be relentlessly themselves. I don't think that I have that quality, that strength of mind.
Cillian Murphy
Image
There's a lot of comedy in Intermission but it's got this depth. It's not comedy for comedy's sake - it's informed by something else. I like stuff like that
Cillian Murphy
Image
You know, I'm a skinny Irish guy.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I'm interested in pressure, I'm interested in duress. All the great works of art, or film or literature, in my opinion, have elements of those in them.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I take my hat off to the ladies. The amount of grooming-plucking and shaving and all the other things men never have to do. I went down and spent time with transvestites in London in the clubs and all that. Got an insight to that world, and it's a mad world, but they are very warm and very open people. It was a great experience.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I'm kind of loath to pick one project over another or whatever. You go into every film sort of thinking it'll be your best work, and that's necessary. I think in this business, you really have to be forward-looking the whole time. I think nostalgia is sort of the death knell for any artist.

It's always nice to be challenged.

For me, drama is conflict.

If you behave like a celebrity, then people will treat you like a celebrity, and if you don't, they won't. There's not much to write about me in the tabloids.
Cillian Murphy
Image
I think it's necessary to keep moving forward. I've always said that nostalgia is death, really for anyone creative.
Cillian Murphy
Image
And once you're unafraid with death, I think your capacity for violence is immediately increased. Once you're unafraid of death, you are a very, very dangerous adversary
