More quotes by Clive Owen
The theater's a live thing, and film is, to some extent, a discipline where you're putting everything together and trying to execute something exactly. You do it away from people and then you present it at the end.
Clive Owen
As a teenager I was crazy about David Bowie. He was a huge inspiration for me. I dressed a little bit crazily in school and dyed my hair every colour under the sun.
Clive Owen
I live in London and I love living in a gun free environment and long may it continue.
Clive Owen
I actually really love working with young actors because they're so responsive and instinctive, and it's a much less honed craft that they're employing.
Clive Owen
I do wear suits all the time.
Clive Owen
I always want my options to be open.
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 feel for those 19-year-olds who get thrust into the limelight that young.
Clive Owen
I find sometimes that if you do too many takes, it starts to become meaningless to me. It is hard to sustain it for me. I don't want to do too many.
Clive Owen
I'm sort of one of those weird actors who whenever I do a play, I think, Oh, we should film this. As opposed to have to belt it out of ourselves in a theater auditorium.
Clive Owen
I do a lot better if I sit around and think about a character for a couple of months.
Clive Owen
I believe that we live in a time of fractured families where maybe fathers aren't getting enough time to see their kids because life's complications and hardships get in the way of those things.
Clive Owen
I'm a huge fan of 'The Exorcist.'
Clive Owen
The thing about Hemingway that people forget is that all the stuff he did was at a time where people weren't traveling that much. At 19 he travels to Italy. He goes to the Spanish Civil War. He goes to China, he goes to Africa so at that time to travel that much is really incredible.
Clive Owen
The further you run from your sins, the more exhausted you are when they catch up to you.
Clive Owen
I don’t mind looking like I need a good wash and a good meal... Any actor who starts taking ‘sex symbol’ seriously or thinks of themselves as a sex symbol has got some serious problems.
Clive Owen
A lot of the projects that I do, I like to be involved with earlier. I just feel that, certainly from an acting point of view, it's easier to do my job, if I'm included in what the intentions are, for why people are doing what they're doing, especially with a director.
Clive Owen
A huge part of acting in movies is appetite. You do your best work when you've got a lot of appetite and you really want to embrace something. When you get tired, you don't have that hunger.
Clive Owen
Acting is all about likability.
Clive Owen
I was not a very fearful kid, really.
