An acting assistant stage manager in a theater in Canterbury, a rep theater. A small wage but just enough to get by on, and I made props, and I walked on, and I changed scenery, and I realized that I just loved it.

We all have our time machines, don't we. Those that take us back are memories...And those that carry us forward, are dreams.
Jeremy Irons

I've never been passionate about acting, and I find more and more that I work to live the life I want to live. [...] There's something about the detachment I have, the feeling of the lack of importance about what I do, that is healthy.
Jeremy Irons
There are a group of people who are managing the world to their advantage and who just look to the rest of us as people who will buy their products and fund their salaries.
Jeremy Irons
I have to say that I've reached the state of my career where I quite like not to work. Strange enough, I'm busier than ever. I'm not spending every waking hour beside a telephone waiting for it to ring.
Jeremy Irons
What I try to do as an actor is constantly find that, find ways to risk, find opportunities to fall on my face if it's going to be worth it, and then maybe I'll surprise myself.
Jeremy Irons
Never played a video game. Actually, I try to keep them out of my house.
Jeremy Irons
Sadly, one's parameters are constantly narrowed by one's success.
Jeremy Irons
We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories. Some take us forward, they're called dreams.
Jeremy Irons
I constantly experience failure in that my work is never as good as I want it to be. So I live with failure.
Jeremy Irons
When it seems that someone has shattered your dreams....pick up even the smallest of pieces and use them to build bigger and better dreams.
Jeremy Irons
I liked the theater. I liked the people. I liked the time that we worked.
