| 1 | You're spoilt as an actor if you are in that small percentage that works regularly. |
| 2 | My first priority is to my wife, as hers is to me, and to our child. |
| 3 | I've been aware of the work I do as an actor being directorial in feel. |
| 4 | I'm happiest when I can just be a director and watch. |
| 5 | I don't know anyone who's suffered lung cancer. |
| 6 | I'm too much of a big kid. |
| 7 | I'm not sure I'm the sort of actor people are hugely interested in finding out an awful lot about. |
| 8 | I don't crave Hollywood. |
| 9 | With a woman of sophistication, class and modesty and refinement, I become a totally tongue-tied buffoon. I can't even look her straight in the face. |
| 10 | A big budget studio film is slower, they've got so much to create around you. Everything is more complicated. |
| 11 | A bicycle has transformed my experience of London. |
| 12 | As an actor, I'm familiar with having bursts of energy, where you're giving things a try, and then you have down time. |
| 13 | You really are being quite foolish to smoke. |
