More quotes by Jeremy Irons
Never played a video game. Actually, I try to keep them out of my house.
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
I envy children who know that they're going to become doctors, know they're going to go into the forces or whatever. I think choice is one of the hardest things, but that's what I try to give my children, to say you can do anything.
Jeremy Irons
It's always useful to be in big movies for one's career.
Jeremy Irons

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
Same-sex marriage will lead to fathers marrying sons.
Jeremy Irons
I think I would not be described as a character actor in that I don't take on characteristics which are very alien to me.
Jeremy Irons
Sadly, one's parameters are constantly narrowed by one's success.
Jeremy Irons
I liked the theater. I liked the people. I liked the time that we worked.
Jeremy Irons
Anywhere I can ski in the morning and sell a movie in the afternoon is good.
Jeremy Irons
It's just money it's made up. Pieces of paper with pictures on it so we don't have to kill each other just to get something to eat.
Jeremy Irons
I'm very glad I'm not a politician. I think it's one step away from the gates of hell, being a politician. I really do. It`s a nightmare.
Jeremy Irons
And whenever I'm in a situation where I'm wearing the same as 600 other people and doing the same thing as 600 other people, looking back, I always found ways to make myself different, whether it be having a red lining inside of my jacket, having red shoes, it hasn't changed.
Jeremy Irons
I think nobody since has written such extraordinary work as Shakespeare writes. The characters he writes are full of inconsistencies, which is a great human quality - I mean we're all very inconsistent in the way we behave.
