More quotes by Daniel Day-Lewis
I hate wasting people's time.
Daniel Day-Lewis
The theater is a need for me. It's a terrible attraction, something I'm compelled to do. And one derives a form of nourishment from the theater which you can never get from films. Making films weakens you in some way. With the theater, the work itself is a regenerative process.
Daniel Day-Lewis

Daniel Day-Lewis

Daniel Day-Lewis
I can't re-examine work I did in the past with pride.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I just knew at an early time in my life how important privacy was.
Daniel Day-Lewis
Everybody has to know for themselves what they're capable of.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I spend many months in apparently listless rumination out of which I hope something will emerge.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I don't deal at all well with the relative amount of stuff I have to face already.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I didn't like the idea of being foolish, but I learned pretty soon that it was essential to fail and be foolish.
Daniel Day-Lewis
God knows, I haven't always been successful.
Daniel Day-Lewis
