More quotes by Frank Langella
Each of us needs something - food, liquor, pot, whatever - to help us survive. Dracula needs blood.
Frank Langella
You can only lead by example, and you can only say it might be better for you if. But nobody can do anything until they're ready to do it. So you can sit down with a strong-minded young man of 24, as my son was at a point, and say now listen, this, this, this, and this.
Frank Langella
I watch actors destroy themselves by trying to get it right.
Frank Langella
There's a certain secret every actor must have in his work. If you reveal it, you're letting the audience in on the wrinkles and convolutions of your brain. All I want them to do is to see the effect.
Frank Langella
I had to face within myself all the things I didn't do and wasn't while I was wearing my own crown.
Frank Langella

Frank Langella
The best kind of kinky sex is to have kinky sex with your wife or husband, the person you love
Frank Langella
Vampires are sexy to a woman perhaps because the fantasy is similar to that of the man on the white horse sweeping her off to paradise.
Frank Langella
If you're lucky as you get older, you respect the craft and it becomes a skill.
Frank Langella
The last few years have been pretty hectic.
Frank Langella
I'm hardly disinterested totally in my appearance
Frank Langella
However, I don't by any means suggest that I'm always playing myself.
Frank Langella
All of our health is basically genetics.
Frank Langella
I will carry on acting as long as I have breath and as long as I have energy and as long as I can remember my lines. Those are the basic things you need to be an actor. I'll never retire unless something happens to me and I can't do it well. If I can't do it well I don't want to see the public to see me wasting away in front of them.
Frank Langella
As a matter of fact, I rarely ever play myself.
Frank Langella
I have a good friend who says, We're all just dodging bullets. It seems to me the trick to living a good life is to try to move away from the gun you turn on yourself.
