More quotes by Daniel Day-Lewis
I suppose that anyone who does any kind of creative work some time in their life - especially as you grow into middle age! - you come to a time where you really question more and more frequently, whether you have anything else to offer. And at its worst, you feel utterly bereft of whatever creative force it takes to do that work.
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
England is obsessed with where you came from, and they are determined to keep you in that place, be it in a drawing room or in the gutter.
Daniel Day-Lewis
How can you be a recluse in a house full of children, even if you had the inclination to be, which I don't?
Daniel Day-Lewis
Just stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far. I will find you!
Daniel Day-Lewis
Film has become such a central part of our culture now that I think sometimes too great a weight is placed upon it in terms of scrutiny and analysis. There's a lot of rather specious professorial stuff that swirls around films.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm not actually a big musical fan.
Daniel Day-Lewis
The greater your powers of self-delusion, the greater will be the apparent efficacy of this untruth.
Daniel Day-Lewis

Daniel Day-Lewis
I have no role models. Many heroes. I have an enormous capacity for hero worship.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I have a competition in me. I want no one else to succeed. I hate most people.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm not sure you learn anything on film sets.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I just knew at an early time in my life how important privacy was.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I would wish for any one of my colleagues to have the experience of working with Martin Scorsese once in their lifetime.
Daniel Day-Lewis
God knows, I haven't always been successful.
Daniel Day-Lewis
The last time I was on a small set would've been probably My Left Foot.
Daniel Day-Lewis
Leaving a role is a terrible sadness. The last day of the shooting is surreal. Your soul, your body and your mind are not ready at all to see the end of this experience. In the following months after a film shoot, one feels a deep sense of void.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I live in a landscape, which every single day of my life is enriching.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I like to cook things very slowly.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm very often still very much alive for that other being and that other world long after the film is finished
