More quotes by Rowan Atkinson
It certainly helps, I think, with some actors to understand the process of acting.

Rowan Atkinson
I consider myself more of a visual comedian than a physical one.
Rowan Atkinson
The first couple of weeks of filming were quite tricky for me to find my feet with the character [Maigret], which wasn't helped by the story that we were telling.
Rowan Atkinson
I like to relish words and sentences, and phraseology, and there's not much facility for that [playing Maigret].
Rowan Atkinson
Lord, thy one-liners are as good as thy tricks. Thou art indeed an all-round family entertainer.
Rowan Atkinson
Nope, I don't enjoy work generally. Not because I'm lazy it's just all so stressful and worrying.
Rowan Atkinson
The older you get, the more you realise how happenstance... has helped to determine your path through life.
Rowan Atkinson
The job is interesting, and the task is difficult, but the man [Maigret] is just a decent man doing a very ordinary job.
Rowan Atkinson
The path of my life is strewn with cow pats from the devil's own satanic herd!
Rowan Atkinson
