My heart aches completely, every hour, every day, and only when I'm with you does the pain go away.
Ewan McGregor
Image
As a child I was taken to the pantomime or the theatre and I would always, always fall in love with somebody on the stage. And want to have sex with them.

I think theatre reminds us what we're doing as actors, because every night and every matinee day, you have an audience telling you what's working and what's not. And that's very good for us as actors to hone our skills.

People are incredibly rude about it sometimes. Like What? You're married? Strange reaction to have. Proves what people's ideas about marriage are. We're having a baby. What? As if it's the end of the world. Of course, it's the start of a brilliant world.
Ewan McGregor
