I'm crazy about James Brown. I'm crazy about soul music. And then the blues. Rhythm and blues.

I'm always happy when actors get rich, because the odds on it are so long!

I don't even own a car.

One of the things that is assumed about actors is that they are extrovert, which is almost never the case, in my experience.

I used to think that prizes were damaging and divisive, until I got one, and now they seem sort of meaningful and important.

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.

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.
