Zitat des Tages von Antony Sher:
I love the mixture that's in me. It makes me me. And that's why it's such a shame that people waste energy in denying who they are.
Life is just more comfortable if you're honest and open about everything. I spent so many years being in the closet about one thing or another.
I don't believe in an afterlife.
I have no cynicism at all.
As a gay Jewish white South African, I belong to quite a lot of minority groups. You constantly have to question who you are, what you are and whether you have the courage to be who you are.
You don't expect to get the letter saying, Her Majesty would like to appoint you Knight Commander of the British Empire! It was just a completely overwhelming and exciting day.
I have a Woody Allen Jewish attitude to life: that it's all going to be disastrous. That it hasn't all been that way is simply down to some random quirk of fate.
Most of my career has been spent with the RSC doing Shakespeare, and the thing you learn from Shakespeare is that his historical plays don't bear anything other than a basic resemblance to history.
I'm always very proud of belonging to three minorities: gay, Jewish, white South African.
I believe deeply in therapy. There's no one in the world who wouldn't benefit from it.
What drew me to acting in the first place was disguise.
It's good for actors to confront those things we have to act: panic, pain and death.
I was never built to play the hero. Physically or emotionally... And they're not as rewarding to play. At least for me.
