More quotes by Frank Langella
There is a thing called the death wish, a literal thing. It doesn't mean you want to die. It just means however we're built, as we get into these years, some inner part of you does begin to accept the fact that you're heading towards the end, and there's a peace that comes with that.

Frank Langella
Then, for a hot three or four weeks I wanted to be a concert pianist.
Frank Langella
When asked what it takes to succeed in the acting profession, Bette Davis would answer, The courage to be hated.
Frank Langella
It's my job to try to communicate with as little showiness as possible. I was a really showy actor as a young man.
Frank Langella
There are no taboos in bed, and there shouldn't be any taboos in bed.
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
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
When I closed in King Lear I went into a period of depression for about three weeks, and every actor I've talked to who's ever played a major, major Shakespeare role has done this.
