More quotes by Clive Owen

Clive Owen
Kids before they're 7 or 8 are like little manic obsessives. They become completely hooked on things and they're slightly crazy.
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
The further you run from your sins, the more exhausted you are when they catch up to you.
Clive Owen
I think there is a lot of overexplaining both in writing and acting. People don't need to be hit on the head.
Clive Owen
I love to mix it up. I love to keep doing different things.
Clive Owen
I don't think you necessarily identify and believe in the motifs of the character, but you have to want to play it and want to commit to the lines.
Clive Owen
Obviously, I'm attracted to heavier movies.
Clive Owen
I'd like to do a film which is funny.
