Zitat des Tages von Rory McCann:
I can't get on girls' wavelengths at all. I think we are completely different. I don't know, maybe that's the way it should be. If we could all get along occasionally though, that would be nice.
If I had a long-term partner, I don't think I'd be an actor. It'd be too much of a strain; you have to work too hard to balance that life with a family and a mortgage and all that stuff - it would be too much.
I'm on my boat, training, rehearsing; I spend all my energy on the job that's coming up, and I found that's the way that works for me. The more energy you have on set, the better you'll be; it's all about being alive in that moment and listening.
I don't have a mortgage or kids, so I can lie low and tighten my belt if I need to.
When I get a job, I make phone calls to every single person I know and tell them not to bloody call me.
I wouldn't say I'm that social... I'm either sailing my boat by myself or living in some small place.
I'm just about to move to a place that you can only get there by rowing a boat across a loch, which I'm thoroughly looking forward to it. It's not got electricity or anything.
What do I know about women? I don't know anything.
The thing that I just discovered, which fascinates me really - my name, McCann, the translation isn't 'Son of Ann'... It comes from 'Canis' - as in 'canine' - as in 'dog!' My name - Rory McCann - means Rory Hound, Rory Wolfhound.
I've got to say my mother is the most important woman in my life, and not just because she is a 'Scotsman' reader.
I don't have a mortgage, I don't have a wife and I don't have kids, so I'm quite happy bumbling along.
There were times at the start of it all when I would be standing, terrified, in front of the cameras and people I considered 'real' actors. I had no idea what was happening, what the guy with the clipboard did, or if people in the studio were looking at me because it was their job to look at me or because they thought I was making a mess of things.
