More quotes by Clive Owen
I've got actor friends who didn't get breaks, who struggle and worry about things that I'm fortunate not to have to worry about.
Clive Owen
Ultimately, to have a career in movies, to a certain extent, certainly in England, you can't sustain a career in just English movies.

Clive Owen
Good dialogue is very important.
Clive Owen
I never really look at life and worry about missed opportunities.
Clive Owen
I was at the birth of my two girls.
Clive Owen
Something I don't like seeing in other people is naked ambition, when somebody is really pushing hard to get to where they want to be. That's the way I look at that word - like you must be stepping on someone to get there. And I've never been comfortable with that.
Clive Owen
I think anybody who bets on horses and says they win is probably a liar.
Clive Owen
There's not a big gun culture in England at all still.
Clive Owen
I was not a very fearful kid, really.
Clive Owen
The further you run from your sins, the more exhausted you are when they catch up to you.
Clive Owen
You see these actresses who have had Botox or something else done, and it takes you out of the film.
