More quotes by Rupert Everett

Rupert Everett
Hmm... Death by mini bar, how glamorous.
Rupert Everett
Being gay and being a woman has one big thing in common, which is that we both become invisible after the age of 42. Who wants a gay 50-year-old? No one, let me tell you.
Rupert Everett
I think belief is like having the first Microsoft Windows - it's so rudimentary, in the human brainwork, it's so obviously a sham.
Rupert Everett
A lot of straight actors are actively searching for gay roles because it is something different to do.
Rupert Everett
If I did have the impulse to be a parent, I would adopt - or foster.
