Artists instinctively want to reflect humanity, their own and each other's, in all its intermittent virtue and vitality, frailty and fallibility.

I even feel grateful for the failures.

One of the great flaws that we all share is that we think everyone else is cooler, everyone else is sexier everyone else has all the answers. That was me too.

I was informed yesterday that there's a Twitter account for my laugh. Very hard to get used to things like that. Pretty amazing.

The Night Manager doesn't exist in the post-Cold war universe, it exists much more in the modern world, I think. There is more action. The bad guys don't have particularly political or national-political affiliations.

At Christmas, individuals are apportioned their roles in the family script - you're either the funny one or the sensitive one or you either do the cooking or the washing up. And those roles aren't easy to change.

Love your life. Because your life is what you have to give.

You look at the greatest villains in human history, the fascists, the autocrats, they all wanted people to kneel before them because they don't love themselves enough.

I did a production of 'Journey's End,' an RC Sherriff play about World War I, at the Edinburgh Festival. I was 18 and it was the first time that people I knew and loved and respected came up to me after the show and said, 'You know, you could really do this if you wanted to.'

I don't want to be quoted as 'Tom Hiddleston, psychologist says...' But there is a psychological aspect to being an actor. We are particular students of human nature - not every actor is, of course, but that's what fascinates me about being an actor.

I think everyone should do what they love because it will never feel like work that way.

Everybody is great and the chemistry is different with everyone. That is the joy of acting - you really don't know how it is going to go until you turn up. It's like playing tennis, you can't plan for the match you are going to play until you are actually up against your opponent and what happens, happens. That is the joy of being on set.

The difference between a hero and a villain is that they just make different choices.

I was so lucky because what I did in 'Thor' was I built the character from the ground up - the foundations of his spirit, really. He was someone who was born with an expectation that he would one day be a king, born with an entitlement.

I've always loved King Kong. He's like a modern-day myth, an icon of the cinema.

I wish I hadn't worked so hard I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends and I wish I had let myself be happier. It's an extraordinary list of getting in your own way, isn't it?

Ancient societies had anthropomorphic gods: a huge pantheon expanding into centuries of dynastic drama fathers and sons, martyred heroes, star-crossed lovers, the deaths of kings - stories that taught us of the danger of hubris and the primacy of humility.

People love escapism and there should be a place for it.

There are certain things in the scripts that need to be planned: you know, big stunt sequences, battle sequences... you can't improvise that stuff. You can improvise when there's just two of you standing in a kitchen and the most dramatic thing that's going to happen is someone's going to open the fridge.

I try not to make plans. God always laughs at your plans.
