It used to be that I was always paranoid or a loser or something so there's usually something that you seem to associate yourself with at one time or another.

More quotes by Colin Firth
You have to be ill if you want to get better.
Colin Firth
I can't bring you absolute truth in the detailed factual sense. All I can do is bring you an interpretation as I understand it. That's all you can ever get from an actor.
Colin Firth
I love you even when you're sick and look disgusting.
Colin Firth
The last thing I would attempt to do is to buy clothes for a child I didn't know well.
Colin Firth
When I look in the mirror, I don't see my Dad, I see my grandmother. For a while it was my mother looking back at me. If only it was my Dad.
Colin Firth
Maybe it's shallow of me to have a wife that's so beautiful, but it makes things easier. To me she's the most beautiful woman in the world.
Colin Firth
If I were to write a book about the progress of getting to a third film, it would be a long one.
Colin Firth
However good a communicator a director is, unless they've been actors, it's just not the same as the shorthand you get with someone who's been an actor.
Colin Firth
But this is where you get all the market research and things get in danger of becoming formulaic, and where you depend on brands and getting recognised actors. It's the thing that precludes risk very often, otherwise everyone would be avant-garde all over the place.
Colin Firth
I haven't had to struggle very much. I haven't paid my dues. I think I have been lucky.
Colin Firth
People have the idea of missionaries as going out with the Bible and hitting natives with it. It's not really what they were doing. They were all doing something rather different.
Colin Firth
Most actors will tell you they have some sort of dream of doing something other than what they're doing.
Colin Firth
On his fight scene with Hugh Grant in Bridget Jones: It was a delicious experience.
Colin Firth
I never saw myself as Mr. Ugly, but I'm not that handsome. I can sort of be made to look quite a lot better or quite a lot worse.
Colin Firth
I don't know if there's a problem with original ideas... I think a healthy film industry should have a good supply of good, original writing.
Colin Firth
No matter how much technique you draw on or how much training you have, acting is a mystery.
Colin Firth
The skill of a good actor is to make it always seem like you're in that fantastically spontaneous moment. Very often, a stand-up comedian has a different instinct, which is to reinvent. Once you've laid down some material, and made them laugh, you move on and find some new material.
Colin Firth
Whenever you take on playing a villain, he has to cease to be a villain to you. If you judge this man by his time, he's doing very little wrong.
Colin Firth
As much as the next person, I want to be approved of, but I'm not greedy for that stuff.
Colin Firth
What infuriates me is that in America violence is judged in context, whereas language is not. So with language there is an arithmetic that says: one f*** is a PG 13, two f***s is an R. They don't say: one bullet through one head is a PG 13, two bullets through more than two heads is an R.
