More quotes by Robert Carlyle
Bullying is a terrible, terrible thing.
Robert Carlyle
Most of the time, you find that the smaller the budget, the more the project is about something substantive.
Robert Carlyle
I'm in four different films this year, and I have four different accents. I sound different in every film. You have to love a character to play it well, and change in my work is what I want.
Robert Carlyle
I never go anywhere without my iPod.
Robert Carlyle
I've always believed that as an actor anything you're asked to do is within you. You just have to try and find it.
Robert Carlyle

Robert Carlyle
A lot of my work is with children and there's a reason for that, because they really level you.
Robert Carlyle
At times of the severest depression, humor is what binds people together.
Robert Carlyle
The thing I miss the most about Scotland is the football.
Robert Carlyle
For me, it's a voyage of self-discovery. I'm able to go on a set and to explore situations, personalities, people and characters that are close to me, or maybe not. Through going there and experiencing these different people and their situations, it helps me to get oriented and develop as a human being. So, acting is fundamental to who I am.
Robert Carlyle
I'd love to do a Columbo-type detective character in a series.
Robert Carlyle
I owe my father everything.
Robert Carlyle
I've never been good at accepting jobs six months down the line. I can't do it. If I'm thinking about this, I can't think about that. So I always seem to fly by the seat of my pants.
Robert Carlyle
Early days, I was a bit racked , particularly when I did Hitler, for CBS . That was hellish. That stayed with me for quite a long time.
Robert Carlyle
Biologically, I'm lucky - an angular face and dark colouring which shows up well on camera.
Robert Carlyle
