I haven’t always been thrilled with my work. But the fear of not proving the people wrong who think you can’t emerge from a franchise and do well, that’s a very strong driving force.

More quotes by Daniel Radcliffe
As much as I would love to be a person that goes to parties and has a couple of drinks and has a nice time - that doesn't work for me. I do that very unsuccessfully. I'd just rather sit at home and read, or go out to dinner with someone, or talk to someone I love, or talk to somebody that makes me laugh.
Daniel Radcliffe
I think it speaks to the fact that other people are as excited about originality as we are. I think the thing that has been wonderfully communicated in the trailers and all the promotion for the movie [Swiss Army Man] is that it isn't like anything else you've ever seen, and we're not just saying that. I think that excites people.
Daniel Radcliffe
I've not got a girlfriend at the moment. Somebody said, 'Do you worry girls are just giving you attention because of who you are?' I was like, 'I'm 17, it's wonderful.'
Daniel Radcliffe
I know it wouldn't seem like I've had a lot of failure in my career, but there are things that I regard as failures, when I look at certain performances and go, 'That's not good enough.'
Daniel Radcliffe
My parents were what I like to call proper musical fans. Lots of Sondheim was played in the car.
Daniel Radcliffe
I was in the bath at the time, and my dad came running in and said, 'Guess who they want to play Harry Potter!?' and I started to cry. It was probably the best moment of my life.
Daniel Radcliffe
I mean I've seen 3D films so far and I think it's a long way to go before they replace actors. It's a funny thing with 3D, I haven't quite got it yet. Yet.
Daniel Radcliffe
I've always thought that as long as directors and casting directors don't see me as just Harry Potter, I'll be OK. People have shown a lot of faith in me, and I owe them a huge debt. They're letting me prove that I'm serious about this.
Daniel Radcliffe
I could never do stand-up because it's that thing of having to get up on stage. And out of every 10 jokes you tell, nine of them have to get a really good response.
Daniel Radcliffe
Working hard is important. But there is something that matters even more, believing in yourself.
Daniel Radcliffe
Every day I would come to set [of Swiss Army Man] going like, How are we going to do this?.
Daniel Radcliffe
I think honesty is the most heroic quality one can aspire to.
Daniel Radcliffe
I'm never going to be in something as commercially successful as 'Harry Potter' ever again. It's impossible. So that gives me incredible freedom to go off and make the slightly off-the-wall films that I want to make.
Daniel Radcliffe
I always feel that if you put me in a room with a director and a writer and let me talk about the script, I can give a good account of myself.
Daniel Radcliffe
I don't think that you necessarily need a certain type of background to take on roles. You see actors from very, very privileged backgrounds playing working class characters and vice-versa. I don't think your background limits you as to what you can do.
Daniel Radcliffe
I think that the process of making a film is an underrated factor in how that film turns out.
Daniel Radcliffe
I still have issues around forgetting that it's my life and if I want to do something, I can do it.
Daniel Radcliffe
My mom and dad were actors when they were younger and had a horrible experience of it. My dad became a literary agent and my mom a casting director.
Daniel Radcliffe
I love just going out and sitting down in the park along with the thousands of other people who apparently have no work to do during the day. People come up to me, but they are generally really nice. New York makes it easier, for me at least. People manage to be enthusiastic and sort of sane at the same time. And that’s lovely.
Daniel Radcliffe
I used to joke I was a point-and-click actor. My whole process has been about trusting your instincts and hitting your mark.
Daniel Radcliffe
