Zitat des Tages von Bill Nighy:
When you have a family, or even when you're just seeing a girl, it's difficult to be skint.
Emma Watson is adorable in the extreme. She is such a lovely person.
I guess part of the hit-man appeal is the solitude. Everybody is lured to the idea of the solitary life.
I generally do things I'm proud to be in and generally I'm in things people like.
I'm a jacket man. And if I'm without one, I am kind of seriously disabled. I don't know how to operate in shirt sleeves.
I'm not a financial expert. The Robin Hood tax seems to me a very simple and beautiful idea. I don't see the problem.
I'm not famous for my back story investigations; I'm lucky that I work with good writers and it's usually in the script.
I was never a hippy, per se.
One of the reasons I like a suit is because I've never been that keen on my body. The shape a suit presents is always going to be better than anything I can do.
I'm always happy when actors get rich, because the odds on it are so long!
When I do a play, it's like agreeing to be ill for a couple of months.
Jerry Bruckheimer says that he makes films that he would want to see, and it seems that that coincides with what a lot of people want to see.
More people saw me in 'Love Actually' than had seen me in everything else I had ever done up to that point.
I wanted to be a journalist, I thought it was glamorous and that I'd meet beautiful women in the rain.
I'm one of those weird people who doesn't even own a computer.
There is something, yeah, I mean traditionally it's more fun to play bad guys than it is good guys and when you're playing a bad guy, yeah, the fun in it is to see how scary you can be, how horrible you can be. And it's surprising what you come up with.
When it comes to casual clothing, my enthusiasm for clothes starts to waver.
One of my great regrets, and I don't have many, is that I spent too long putting people's status and reputation ahead of their more important qualities. I learned far too late in life that a long list of letters after someone's name is no guarantee of compassion, kindness, humour, all the far more relevant stuff.
The degree of notoriety I have is fine and easy. There's nothing hysterical about it.
I'm not a royal family watcher.
The great thing about animation is it's like the radio. I used to do lots of radio when I was a kid, and you get to play parts you would never get to play ordinarily.
In life, if you have an enthusiasm for what they call 'good manners,' sometimes people don't quite believe you. I've had that once or twice before, where they assume you can't be for real.
I never watch my own films.
Hunger is almost like something the West does. It's almost like the direct result of the way the West performs.
I've always slightly worried the kids who play football around my house. They know I'm an actor, but felt sorry for me because they'd never seen anything I've done.
The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.
I've worked with Len Wiseman before, on the 'Underworld' series, in which I was a vampire. The first two of those were his first two films. And I admire him beyond measure. I think he's tremendous, as a man and as a director.
I don't want to associate myself with any specific group of politicians.
It can't be overstated how wonderful it is not to have to audition any more. Any actor will tell you, it's like Christmas.
If you ever see me in a social setting wearing any sort of sportswear, then you know I'm in crisis.
When a movie is called 'searingly honest,' it's almost invariably grim and demonstrates how bad things can get.
I never mind doing press; it's never bothered me.
I don't spend a lot of time with anybody.
You can ruin your life wanting to be an actor.
I don't seem to be able to learn from experience or anything useful. History doesn't help me. Precedents don't inform my experience.
Never go anywhere you have to wear brown shoes.
