FAMOUS QUOTATIONS

Here are some of his words:

·         “I hope that I’m always struggling, really. When you’re struggling you get stronger.”

·         “I’m very neurotic and self-conscious. So I think that I’ll know when I’m becoming a dick and believing my own press.”

·         “Obviously there’s something very seductive about movies, which can be attractive in a bad way if you’re doing them for the wrong reasons – for money, or for fame. I hope I won’t ever do that. I don’t feel at home in LA, I feel like I’m on holiday. It’s nice to dip your feet in occasionally, but I think it’s probably quite unhealthy to spend too much time there at once.”

·         “I hope that I have to audition for every single job I want. I hope that I’m always struggling, really. You develop when you’re struggling. When you’re struggling, you get stronger.”
