I think the most romantic thing you can do is just turn up. Turn up when it's difficult for you. Travel halfway around the world or just up the road. Whatever it is, just be there.

Distance is a bad excuse for not having a good relationship with somebody. It's the determination to keep it going or let it fall by the wayside; that's the real reason that the relationships continue.

As an actor sometimes you can be a bit emotional and forceful, and that's not always the way to be.

I think fear is one of the natural states of most actors, to be honest.

I also really liked playing Mr. Tumnus in 'Narnia'. I got to play my favorite character in children's literature, which I loved. You don't get the chance to do that in other jobs.

The minute you start to strategize too much, the more you start to think you're in control of your own fate. And you're not, really.
