More quotes by Michael Sheen
We live in a bubble of the fantasy of death, but the reality of it is something that we obviously all face and have to deal with, at some point.
Michael Sheen
I think when you work on a Woody Allen film the actors become a real company, probably more than on any other film.
Michael Sheen
'Hamlet' is one of the most dangerous things ever set down on paper. All the big, unknowable questions like what it is to be a human being the difference between sanity and insanity the meaning of life and death what's real and not real. All these subjects can literally drive you mad.
Michael Sheen
On the one hand Twitter gives you the opportunity to engage with people, which is great, but on the other there are people who feel they can say whatever they want, put poison out there, really, without fear of any repercussions.
Michael Sheen
My taste in watching things runs from dramas and low-budget films to high-end fantasy/science fiction.
Michael Sheen
Having said that, what I think we found, in doing the show, and in life, generally, is that the more you try to separate sex from everything else, it's impossible. You can't. The act of observation affects the actual experiment, and we see that in this.
Michael Sheen
Well, I think tone is very important with this show [Masters of Sex] because there are certain elements or certain aspects to the show that may be reminiscent of other shows. But, it really is a very new kind of show, in terms of the subject matter and the way it's being dealt with, and the fact that it's about real people and real events.
Michael Sheen
I remember someone said to me, Never stand up when you can sit down, never sit down when you can lie down, never lie down when you can be asleep. Those are bits of advice that I haven't taken, really. I've done the opposite of them, but they have stayed with me.
Michael Sheen
It's interesting that in searching for monsters to play you often end up playing leaders.
Michael Sheen
My tragedy is that all I want is a dog, and yet I have been cursed with cats all my life.
Michael Sheen
I can be a lazy dresser.
Michael Sheen
I suppose I've got a reputation for playing quite extreme characters and making them quite believable.
Michael Sheen
When I was at drama school, I wanted to change the world, and thought I had some great wisdom to impart to people about humanity. Now that I'm older, I know enough to realise that I know nothing at all.
Michael Sheen
We see death constantly on film.
Michael Sheen
Hopefully, any character I play has an anchor in reality. The more fantastical characters, or fantastical worlds that they inhabit are really fun and allow you, in some ways, to tell stories and reveal things about our lives that would be harder to take, in a more realistic setting.
Michael Sheen
Getting older is a struggle. I always feel that just under the surface of acceptance and enjoyment of the ageing process is a terrible hysteria just waiting to burst out.
Michael Sheen
I don't find the life in Hollywood all that meaningful or inspiring.
Michael Sheen
I try not to pay any attention to clothes fascism and I'd rather be thought of as someone who has his own sense of style.
Michael Sheen
I find increasingly that the more extreme are the things going on in your life, the more cultural reference points fail you. More mythical reference points actually help, and you realize that's what myths are for. It's for human beings to process their experience in extremis.
Michael Sheen
I think the story of 'Alice in Wonderland' in a way is a reminder that life is frightening, it can shift on you at any moment.
