I can work hard and be disciplined like a soldier, but I could never reach their level of fitness. I have a whole new appreciation of soldiers. I saw myself on screen and thought, 'That body is so not hard enough to be a soldier.'

More quotes by Richard Armitage
I think understanding or comprehension is probably the strongest emotion that you feel, or at least some kind of empathy.
Richard Armitage
I would not suggest the U.S. should sit down with the North Koreans bilaterally immediately after they've fired missiles - because the appearance is that you reward bad behavior. But if North Korea behaves for some period of time, I would pretty much favor direct talks.
Richard Armitage
The problem with me is I read everything, but it's only the bad stuff that stays with me. It's weird, you only need to be told something once and it stays with you.
Richard Armitage
I come from very conservative parents, and we weren't particularly wealthy, but we were comfortable.
Richard Armitage
Well, I think finding the weapons of mass destruction is going to be quite time consuming. I know we've uncovered some documents, we'll have to exploit them, and we're going to have to blanket a country the size of California and search, I think, quite rigorously, but we'll come up with them.
Richard Armitage
Do people really think that about my nose? I spent my whole life hating it, so its amusing that people like it!
Richard Armitage

Richard Armitage
Adults will not necessarily laugh at the same thing as their children.

Richard Armitage
I'd say that, to be a good deal maker, you have to have three basic characteristics - timing, timing, and timing.
Richard Armitage
But finding these 16 warheads just raises a basic question: Where are the other 29,984? Because that is how many empty chemical warheads the U.N. Special Commission estimated he had - and he has never accounted for.
Richard Armitage
Sometimes I hate the job that I do as an actor. I feel like I'm just of no importance in the world, but sometimes you get a real thrill out of the diversity of the work.
Richard Armitage
A terrorist is one who kills innocents for the pursuit of a political aim.
Richard Armitage
The war we are fighting today against terrorism is a multifaceted fight. We have to use every tool in our toolkit to wage this war - diplomacy, finance, intelligence, law enforcement, and of course, military power - and we are developing new tools as we go along.
Richard Armitage
The development of weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to carry them would be a very destabilizing effect, should Iran be able to accomplish that.
Richard Armitage
I think most conflicts do end with negotiated settlements some don't, but most do.
Richard Armitage
I'm probably more of a new man. I'm not particularly alpha. 'Nourish and nurture' are my watchwords as opposed to 'search and destroy'.
Richard Armitage
I value my ability to keep state secrets.
Richard Armitage
I think there was a pretty smooth hand-off from the administration of President Clinton to the administration of President Bush, particularly in the counterterrorism area. The reason I say that is because there was, for transitions, I think a stunning continuity.
