More quotes by Colin Farrell
Allow your head to be quiet. Allow it to be still. Just for an hour and half. Just deal with your body & your breath.
Colin Farrell
I'm a big old romantic.
Colin Farrell
Making a film, you're in a really dark tunnel and the only kind of illumination is the shared experience you're having with your fellow cast and director.
Colin Farrell
Her Majesty's Secret Service wouldn't have me on the payroll.
Colin Farrell
Vampires have always held a very seductive kind of lore and have always been some variety of attractive, whether it's attractiveness that's born of just the physical attributes that they have - this kind of ethereal beauty or translucent pallor - or whether it is more to do with the way they carry themselves.
Colin Farrell
Anything that's different from your own realm of experience as a human being, whether it's driving a car or a boat, or using guns, anything that separates you from yourself and leads you more towards this character's existence is a big help.
Colin Farrell
I love working with horses. People say you shouldn't work with animals and children that's wrong. You must only work with children, because you only work eight hours a day and I love working with animals. Animals have an honesty that human beings reach to find in their lives at the best of times.
Colin Farrell
But I dare not think too far into the future on the risk that I'll miss the present.
Colin Farrell
I love my kids. I'm crazy about them.
Colin Farrell
If you need to get in physical shape for a film and you have to maintain that for six months, at the start of the film, I was never able to do it.
Colin Farrell
But we're born as children and we look at the world with open eyes... And we don't judge and we don't betray. We're not jealous. We're not envious. We're not even weary, which is a danger also as kids. They have to learn a certain amount of awareness.
Colin Farrell
I like to go for a little drive up the California coast.
Colin Farrell
It's so technical. It's nothing personal. You're not fighting really, you're missing each other by a half of foot at least, ideally more and you get a few knocks and bruises. But with the kissing, you do kiss someone. Its lips on lips.
Colin Farrell
I think people are propelled towards violence, and what propels them is much more interesting than the actual act of violence itself.
Colin Farrell
I love the grandiosity, how sweepingly entertaining films can be. And I think there's a place for films that pry more into the human condition.
Colin Farrell
Desperation will allow you to do incredible things in the name of survival.
Colin Farrell
I've started films like Miami Vice where I'm in really good shape and I look back on that film and see the moustache is bigger as I've got a larger face.
Colin Farrell
That's the process of making the film and it isn't until the world puts their eyes to it that you find out if it's creating any kind of connection at all. But every single film at some stage of the film I think, I wonder what this is going to be?
Colin Farrell
I know what the important things are in life. I know that just because I pretend to be someone else for two hours on the silver screen doesn't make me a better person than the next man. So, I mind all those things. Simple things.
Colin Farrell
I'm just a true Irish boy at heart. I'm just myself, I stick by my guns and I treat people the way I think they should be treated, regardless of their status. And I just have a laugh.
Colin Farrell
