Clive Owen
I like to play characters that are convincing, that aren't just straightforward and nice.
Clive Owen
I did it for the money. But its not worth much if you cant face yourself in the mirror. Respect is the ultimate currency.
Clive Owen
After writing a page, Hemingway would let it float to the ground. He never crumpled pages - he believed that if you crumpled them, you'd be insane in a year.
Clive Owen
I'm just constantly trying to renew and give myself new challenges and push myself to uncomfortable places, trying to get better.
Clive Owen
