I think I can lead a pretty anonymous life, yeah.

Well, fluffy shirts are, by definition, very comfortable.

But one of the most fantastic things about Ireland and Dublin is that the pubs are like Paris and the cafe culture. And Dublin, in many ways, is a pub culture.

Acting is not very good for relationships - but very good for when they are over.

I knew I wanted to be an actor when I was growing up, really. So when I decided to go to university instead of drama school, it was with the intention of becoming an actor afterwards.

I'm fortunate in that I don't think I've ever fallen in love with somebody who hasn't fallen in love with me. I actually think it's quite rare that that happens, in a true way.

In real life, I try to be honest but not overshare. There are people that turn every conversation into a therapy session and you want to start charging them.

Besides, most of the books I like involve people I could never play in a million years.

In my experience it's not essential to get on with the person that you're acting opposite.

I think that women don't bother disguising their desire and pleasure in dressing up, and that men, for whatever reason, tend to be a little more embarrassed.

I could not see beauty until I held hands with chaos in silence.

We live in a world with so many dangers that we have to be careful whom we trust.

Maybe age is kinder to us than we think. With my bad eyes, I can't see how bad I look, and with my rotten memory, I have a good excuse for getting out of a lot of stuff.

Bora Bora is peaceful and quiet, but fun, so full of cool activities and more; spiritual to the core, and you leave with fully recharged batteries.

I use profanity because I like profanity, but I'm not vulgar. Big difference. I love profanity because I really think profanity is cool.

I do write songs with a political dimension to them sometimes, but I'm always slightly appalled by it when I do.

Remember what is unbecoming to do is also unbecoming to speak of.

We needed to have a great set decorator, a great D.P., a great costume designer, everybody. Without all these people, we would have made a shitty movie.

What is life, after all, but a challenge? And what better challenge can there be than the one between the pitcher and the hitter.
