I am a terrible sleeper.

The majority of romantic comedy movies have nothing to do with love, but everything to do with infatuation.
Matt Smith
Image
A lot of times, people have forgotten about an album by the time it's released, because it leaked three months earlier. Very strange days we live in.

Being an actor is about having the courage to follow your instincts, and also having the discipline and dedication to sacrifice the things in your life that you need to sacrifice to get the best out of yourself artistically.
Matt Smith
Image
As an actor I can sort of smell a duff note, that isn't full of that much conviction. My worst thing with directors is when I know more than them about the character.

If I could film, we'd film every episode of 'Doctor Who' in New York. I have an affinity with the city. It has some wonderful locations and it is devastatingly vast and huge. Central Park looks amazing on camera.

A theocracy is a government ruled directly by God, and for us it means Theocracy within. In other words, trying to live by God's principles instead of just living selfishly.

Read about a few men who wear (or wore) bow ties as an act of defiance, and check out a tie that makes a strong statement. Bow ties are cool.

I think expectations of Doctor Who should always be high, because it's a show that must always progress and get better and better.

There are great disciplines from being a sportsman that you can transfer into being an artist. The preparation, the sacrifice, the constant desire to improve.

Image
History will only ever be partial, to a large extent history tells us what we think should be remembered and what should be forgotten, I find that really problematic.
Matt Smith
Image
Even now, I'm very superstitious, in silly ways. I always put my left boot on first. Or on set, I always tie my bow tie from right to left.
Matt Smith
Image
As we get older - perhaps I'm just speaking for myself - we can get too cynical.
Matt Smith
Image
Time travel is such a magic concept.
Matt Smith
Image
You can eliminate color and still have a painting that works, but you must have drawing, value and design.

Image
I am a fan of a bright sock. They're bold.
Matt Smith
Image
I always steal a pair of socks on every photo shoot I do. It's my thing.
Matt Smith
Image
My palette contains a warm and cool of each primary, plus four modifiers: Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, Blue-Violet and Phthalo Yellow-Green just mix as I go for each painting.

Image
At university I had a big coloured scarf and people would often say, 'All right, Doctor Who?' And, I thought, I rather liked that notion.

I think that every artistic venture is a risk, and it has to be that way, so you do as much preparation as you can and make that as thorough as you can possibly make it, until you turn up on set. It's about taking risks, and some might work and some might not, but that's what makes it interesting.
