More quotes by Douglas Booth
The negative about acting is that you have to spend a great deal of time away from your friends and loved ones.
Douglas Booth
One of the biggest things I used to struggle with was about things like going on holiday. Whereas all your friends can talk about something and plan something all year long, I know that I'm probably going to be away and I'm going to miss all of it. If a job comes up, you just can't be there.
Douglas Booth
We live in a beauty-obsessed age and success sometimes appears to hinge solely on the presentation of an image that is acceptable to the press.
Douglas Booth
I want to be challenged, I want to keep challenging myself - whether or not it's changing yourself physically or just pushing yourself to a certain extreme. I get bored quite easily so I like to keep my mind entertained by challenging myself.
Douglas Booth
Some people can very easily switch off and be guilt free, not that what I'm doing is about guilt, but they can completely disconnect and not care because it doesn't affect them. I've always really cared about what happens and felt a certain responsibility.

The most romantic things are very small, kind gestures from people you love.
Douglas Booth
Each character you play has its own set of characteristics, for want of a better word.
Douglas Booth
I've always had a social awareness. My favorite channel on TV is BBC News 24. For a while, I had to have it on repeat in my house. I've always been interested in what's going on in the world.
Douglas Booth
I've said I won't eat meat until the whole world can eat it responsibly, which is going to be hard. It's becoming more and more fashionable to eat more and more meat and they've just made it fashionable to eat meat in the east in China, which is a massive population.
Douglas Booth
I love movies. That's still my favorite form of escape, and I usually end up going alone. I love to go and sit in the theater by myself, no distractions.
Douglas Booth
Going over to Lesvos in Greece and meeting some of these poor refugees who have just made the treacherous sea crossing opened my eyes in a way I can't even being to describe. It's put a fire in my belly to really try to do something, the little I can do.
Douglas Booth
The best thing I've ever done for a girl hopefully is make them happy. Isn't that the most romantic thing you can do?
Douglas Booth
I live alone so I always just eat out. When I'm in another relationship, then maybe we'll start cooking together.
Douglas Booth
I grew up in London, and that's where I spend most of my time. Unless I have a really good reason not to be, I'll always be in London.
Douglas Booth
I live for challenges. In my career, all I want to do is try to challenge myself and have a varied career.

I don't think I've reached perfection by any stretch of the imagination, but maybe someday I'll become a perfectionist.
