More quotes by 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
I like to cook things very slowly.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I spend many months in apparently listless rumination out of which I hope something will emerge.
Daniel Day-Lewis
Making a film, setting it up and getting it cast and getting it together, is not an easy thing
Daniel Day-Lewis
To people who don't know me I'm defined by a number of things that people know about me that are entirely untrue.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm a little bit perverse, and I just hate doing the thing that's the most obvious.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I just knew at an early time in my life how important privacy was.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I come from not just a household but a country where the finesse of language, well-balanced sentence, structure, syntax, these things are driven into us, and my parents, bless them, are great custodians of the English language.
Daniel Day-Lewis
When I did make the decision to focus on acting, I think my mother was just relieved for me that I had finally started to focus.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm not really a storyteller myself - I tend to get all tangled up when I try and tell stories.
Daniel Day-Lewis
It's easy to love humanity when you're this far away from it.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I've got a serious-looking head.
Daniel Day-Lewis
The word Amendment itself is an encouraging thing, isn't it? Because an amendment, it tells of a system of government that allows for the improvement of itself. Just move forward a little bit, one day at a time.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I feel less often compelled to do the work than I was in the past.
Daniel Day-Lewis
You've just provided me with the makings of one hell of a weekend in Dublin.
Daniel Day-Lewis
A voice is such a deep, personal reflection of character.
Daniel Day-Lewis
The greater your powers of self-delusion, the greater will be the apparent efficacy of this untruth.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I hate wasting people's time.
Daniel Day-Lewis
As a member of the audience I don't like it that I can't see what's going on in the eyes and in the face and in the most subtle responses of a performer when I'm more than a few rows back. I find it very frustrating.
Daniel Day-Lewis
When I've gone back to work, it's always with that sense of inevitability. That may be a complete delusion, but it's the one that I need to get out of bed and go about my business. That sense that I can't avoid this thing. I better just get on with it.
Daniel Day-Lewis
