More quotes by Ewan McGregor
If you're suddenly doing something you don't want to do for four years, just so you've got something to fall back on, by the time you come out you don't have that 16-year-old drive any more and you'll spend your life doing something you never wanted to do in the first place.

It's impossible to put your finger on what that is exactly other than protecting the environment that the actors get to find the scenes and build the scenes and invest in them. I think that's key and that's what I've learned from all the great directors I've worked with.
Ewan McGregor
When I moved to London, you could park your motorcycle in the pavement, on the sidewalk. We would stay here and just leave it and go about your business. But now something was sort of encroaching in London. There's cameras everywhere. You can't do anything. You're not allowed to be in a group.

In far Eastern Russia, there's just some towns that time has forgotten. I guess they used to maybe be industrial or something that are now there's just lots of rusty hulks of buildings and a lot of people wandering around, a lot of alcoholism and violence because people have got nothing to do and no work. Yet people were very generous.
Ewan McGregor
A tent, a roll mat, a little bit of food, a bit of petrol in your tank and a vague idea of where you're going and that's all you need.

I left halfway through my third year to start Lipstick On Your Collar, which was the first thing I ever did.
Ewan McGregor
I never imagined it wouldn't work out for me. I had that absolute certainty in myself that has seen me through, I think, and my parents were absolutely behind me all the way.
Ewan McGregor
I don't think having separate bathrooms is a key to a successful marriage, if you love one another.
Ewan McGregor
Once you've agreed the script, you must be willing to go as far as it needs to go on set.
Ewan McGregor
I was born in '71, so I remember bits of glam rock on 'Top of the Pops' toward the late '70s, but I had no idea what kind of world it was. I didn't like the music, either.
Ewan McGregor
I am so honoured to have been given this opportunity to become an Ambassador. It's a new and different venture for me and one that I know will widen my wider perspective on life. I'm in a position to use the recognition from my work to do something really positive for children
Ewan McGregor
I'm not really a blockbuster, I'm not a member of that audience really.
Ewan McGregor
My feeling about seeing the world is that its going to change you necessarily, just the very fact of being out there and meeting people from different cultures and different ways of life.
Ewan McGregor
I'm sometimes asked 'Can you lose the accent?'and I say 'No, but I can put on another one'.
Ewan McGregor
I hate the word celebrity. I'm not a celebrity, I'm an actor.
Ewan McGregor
I've sort of done a play every four or five years I guess if I look back in my career. And I think that's good.
Ewan McGregor
I really want to play Princess Leia. Stick some big pastries on my head. Now, that would be interesting.
Ewan McGregor
I fight cynicism. It`s too easy. It`s really boring. It`s much harder to be positive and see the wonder of everything. Cynicism is a bunch of people who aren`t as talented as other people, knocking them because they make them feel even more untalented.
Ewan McGregor
From there I did a one year theatre acting course in Fife, and then three years of drama school in London.
