More quotes by Clive Owen

Clive Owen
It's important to me that everyone is treated with respect.
Clive Owen
One of the things I love, more than anything, is jumping around and playing lots of different parts. I love the variety of playing different characters.

I've got an age that I do think of myself.
Clive Owen
I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.
Clive Owen
I have a problem with a lot of men's fragrances because they are very strong. Somebody somewhere thinks that masculine means powerful smells, and I find them overbearing and not very pleasant.
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
I was very keen on playing a victim.
Clive Owen
Good dialogue is very important.
Clive Owen
For an actor, it's very important to get a clear idea of what a director wants, and their intention for what they want to get out of a scene and how they want to shoot it. Having that knowledge is really valuable, for an actor. It means you can deliver more.
Clive Owen
I never aspired to be anything. What I've done is beyond my wildest.
Clive Owen
Very often on films, even without a producer credit, I'll be involved, very early on. I want to be there as the thing is taking shape.
Clive Owen
The further you run from your sins, the more exhausted you are when they catch up to you.
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.
