We now live in a world where the only thing to have is success, but failure is marvelous. It's fertiliser, it's like living fertiliser, because you're forced on yourself.

More quotes by Rupert Everett
Being in Hollywood is like being in the Christian right these days.
Rupert Everett
Honestly, I would not advise any actor necessarily, if he was really thinking of his career, to come out.
Rupert Everett
I'm a gay man who came from the last years of illegality. That focused my whole character. I think it focused everyone's character in a way. You saw yourself as outside of the main structure.
Rupert Everett
Madness is a prerequisite of being in showbusiness.
Rupert Everett
I'm not a great poetry fan.
Rupert Everett

Rupert Everett
As a kid I would be put to bed when my parents had guests and because I was such a show-off I would go to my mum's room, put on her nightdress and Jackie Onassis shawl, run downstairs, go outside, ring the doorbell and pretend to be one of the guests. I'd say, 'Hello, I'm Mrs. So-and-So.
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
My grandfather was born in India and three generations of my family served there.
Rupert Everett
Hmm... Death by mini bar, how glamorous.
Rupert Everett
Listen, in England people are already writing their memoirs at the age of 23.
Rupert Everett
I find there aren't that many options as an actor.
