More quotes by 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
I never really look at life and worry about missed opportunities.
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
After drama school I did a seven-month tour of Europe performing in 'Romeo and Juliet.' I played Romeo.
Clive Owen
I'm not the kind of actor who goes into exhaustive research for each role.
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
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
I'm just constantly trying to renew and give myself new challenges and push myself to uncomfortable places, trying to get better.

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 live in London and I love living in a gun free environment and long may it continue.
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
The sexiest part of the body is the eyes. That's what I believe.
Clive Owen
America's been very, very good to me. I've been very lucky and worked a lot there, and appreciate and love the work that I've done.
Clive Owen
I'm a huge fan of 'The Exorcist.'
Clive Owen
I've got an age that I do think of myself.
Clive Owen
I don't like it when people are trying too hard. That goes for clothes, for acting, for everything. It's just not good when it seems like you're making too much of an effort.
Clive Owen
Action scenes are not that different from other scenes.
