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.

More quotes by Matt Smith
Actors, movie stars, rock stars, I can meet them with no worries - but with footballers I go weak at the knees. All of them.
Matt Smith
I think expectations of Doctor Who should always be high, because it's a show that must always progress and get better and better.
Matt Smith
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
I don't think anything could prepare you for whatever fame is. Fame is a very hard word to define cause it means different things to different people for different reasons so I never really think of it as fame, I think of it as part of the job.
Matt Smith
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.

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.
Matt Smith
There's something very intimate about taking someone's work, turning it over and unpicking it. In the same way people have unique handwriting people have a sewing style. You do start building a fantasy relationship with the person.

Amy Pond, there's something you'd better understand about me 'cause it's important, and one day your life may depend on it: I am definitely a mad man with a box!
Matt Smith
We didn't start Theocracy because we wanted to be cool like so-and-so and make money. Our songs aren't trendy, and our lyrics hopefully make people think about certain concepts in a new way.
Matt Smith
I'm not a tweeter or a Facebooker or a Grammer. I'm a real grump when it comes to technology. I'm like, come on, just write me a letter.
Matt Smith
You can eliminate color and still have a painting that works, but you must have drawing, value and design.
Matt Smith
The majority of romantic comedy movies have nothing to do with love, but everything to do with infatuation.
Matt Smith
Time travel is such a magic concept.
Matt Smith
I got injured when I was a kid, and it prevented me from becoming a footballer.
Matt Smith
When I'm painting outdoors, I only have time to think about what I'm saying, not how I'm saying it.
Matt Smith
I used to love ninja movies. That was my thing.
Matt Smith
Directing made me realise what I do as an actor that's extraneous, it focuses your mind on story, story, story.
Matt Smith
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.
Matt Smith
I constantly watch 'The Simpsons' and an English cartoon called 'The Raccoons' and 'Gummi Bears.' I was obsessed with ninja films, and the 'Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles,' I used to love that as well.
Matt Smith
Nothing can prepare you for the changes that take place in your life - for the changes, not only in my life, but my family's. Nothing can prepare you for the enormity and the transition that you go through.
