More quotes by Naveen Andrews
TV is an extraordinary medium. You can do things with TV that you just can't do on film. There's so much more time, there's the opportunity for development, and you can let things lay dormant for a period. You can't really do that in two hours or three hours in a movie, that often, I would say.
Naveen Andrews
Only when I came to America did I think of myself as British.
Naveen Andrews
We emphasize our differences by nationality, race and financially. [...] It's our common humanity that defines us.
Naveen Andrews
Just because I never went to university doesn't mean you can't read, although I do feel a bit uneducated from time to time.
Naveen Andrews
In general, I try to avoid anything that I'm in. I've been that way for awhile. I don't know why. You have to watch, professionally, the things that you're required to watch, but it's not something that I would sit down and watch, again and again.
Naveen Andrews
I'm not an academic, but I've always loved poetry since I've been small.
Naveen Andrews
If you don't take the chance to live life, what can you say at the end of it?
Naveen Andrews
I think that reality TV is so bad. It is a tool by the media to not make people think.
Naveen Andrews
The older I get, the more I'm prepared to do things for the money.
Naveen Andrews
I think I may have failed at a lot of things, but the one thing I can say, and that I'm proud of, is that I am a good parent.
