Oh, what a shock. My career must be slipping. This is the first time I've been available to pick up an award.

I just love to go home, no matter where I am, the most luxurious hotel suite in the world, I love to go home.

I'm every bourgeois nightmare - a Cockney with intelligence and a million dollars.

I've never been competitive with other actors. I've been competitive with myself and I'm my own worst critic, a terrible critic I am, and unless I get something right, I feel very unhappy.

As an actor, I'll play anything.

I think life has got to develop as you get older, and I don't want to be wandering along doing the same old thing. I want more out of life.

If you held a pistol at my head, I couldn't tell you who they're going to vote for Best Actor.
