More quotes by Rupert Everett
These awful middle-class queens - which is what the gay movement has become - are so tiresome. It's all Abercrombie & Fitch and strollers.
Rupert Everett
I don't think kids should have role models. They're disastrous.
Rupert Everett
I don't accept my business the way it is, to be honest. I don't like what it's become. I don't blame anyone for it becoming the way it has. It's got its own hideous natural progression, just like world events.
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
If you're gay or religious you're always hearing this word tolerance. It's a pathetic word. It's actually just a politically correct word for the term intolerance.
Rupert Everett
The thing about lying is, it is quite exhausting - you have to remember a lot.
Rupert Everett
I find there aren't that many options as an actor.
Rupert Everett
You're not allowed to be an eccentric in the world, you have to fit it.
Rupert Everett
My grandfather was born in India and three generations of my family served there.
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
Honestly, I would not advise any actor necessarily, if he was really thinking of his career, to come out.
Rupert Everett
Hmm... Death by mini bar, how glamorous.
Rupert Everett
To be a soldier one needs that special gene, that extra something, that enables a person to jump into one on one combat, something, after all, that is unimaginable to most of us, as we are simply not brave enough.
Rupert Everett
A lot of straight actors are actively searching for gay roles because it is something different to do.
Rupert Everett
I went to boarding school at seven and cried and cried.
Rupert Everett
I'm not a great poetry fan.
Rupert Everett
I'm miserable: that's why I have such a bad back, because I'm endlessly stressing out about my career.
Rupert Everett
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.
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
The opulence of Wilde is a bit too florid for Sherlock, who is a much darker character, ... fascinated by the human condition, but also overwhelmed by it.
