You have to find out who you are aside from what the media say you are. If you've become reliant on them for kind of a sense of self, then you're really screwed.

My friends have always called me 'Mr. Thorough,' in that when I get into something, I become obsessed with it.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I'm somebody who is very, very proud to have been a part of the British film industry all my life and to have kind of been involved with a very important piece of British film history.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
And I'm slightly in love with Scarlett Johansson: she's just stunning. And she's bright, which is incredibly sexy.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
Those things [t hydraulic penises and prosthetic butts and all that] can be what's genuinely shocking about the movie [Swiss Army Man] because people wouldn't expect to be moved by any of it.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I get constantly mistaken for Elijah Wood. I was in Japan and someone held out a photo of him for me to sign.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
To be honest, I would like to have worked with Peter Sellers, because when people talk about classic British actors, you talk about Lawrence Olivier, and Peter Sellers was just in the most amazing films.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I like the idea of not having to do stuff for the money, and if I want to, I can pick indie projects for the rest of my life and be quite happy doing that.

In terms of drama school, what that will give you that you won't necessarily learn on a film set is the technical ability - ie, projecting your voice and stage craft.

If I can make a career for myself after Harry Potter, and it goes well, and is varied and with longevity, then that puts to bed the 'child actors argument'.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
What I learned is that acting is to a large extent about trying to stave off self-doubt long enough to be natural and real onstage.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
My dad's got a brilliant eye for scripts 'cos he's a literary agent. He and my agent read a load of scripts and filter them.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
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
Image
When I get into trouble at school I'd like to take an invisibility cloak, drape it over me and sneak out the door. Or I'd like to have a 3 headed-dog because then no one would argue with me.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
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
Image
I am a frighteningly thorough person.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
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
Image
I've never been one of the cool people at school, but then again, I don't get the people who are cool. It's not that I don't like them, it's just that they don't interest me.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I know me, and I know that I'm not somebody that particularly merits a lot of screaming and shouting. And there's nothing special about me as opposed to hundreds of thousands of other people everywhere.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
It's interesting for myself, growing up as an Asian-American filmmaker. Coming into the industry, my parents always said, No one's going to give you the opportunity. You just have to do the work. Be better than everyone else, so they can't deny it.

I've always had a slightly overactive imagination.
