I don't want to be a luvvie actor. It took a long time for me to accept I was an actor, a professional actor, and that, actually, I make a living out of this.

I've really enjoyed my work in television, but the problem for me is the turnover of directors every week.

I rant and rave about noise pollution.

Acting, the arts in general, is a magnet for the wounded of society.

It's much more fun to be ugly.

I'd totally be attracted to a geek girl!

I want to keep audiences off balance, so they don't know who I am or how to take me. If I duck and weave, as Frank Bruno might say, I'll have a longer shelf life.

I owe my father everything.

I've always believed that as an actor anything you're asked to do is within you. You just have to try and find it.

Hunger's a great spur.

Researches at Yale found a connection between brain cancer and work environment. The No. 1 most dangerous job for developing brain cancer? Plutonium hat model.

A quiet mediocrity is still to be preferred before a troubled superfluity.

Write down the things you like most about them (don't expect change from them). Law of attraction will not put you in the same space together if you frequencies don't match.

Today’s generation of young people holds more power than any generation before it to make a positive impact on the world.
