I know virtually no one of my age who can remember a hug, or a smile from their father, or a 'Let's go play football.'

I don't like the way some actors, when playing a nasty character, will try to grab hold of something good about them.

I love acting. It's the one job I know of where you can go in, go through complete catharsis - emotionally, physically sometimes and mentally - and at the end of the day say, 'See you in the pub, guys.

Sometimes you have to confront your demons and sometimes even let them loose to genuinely find a place where you can gain some understanding.

Truth is I don't think God on a daily basis. I think politics, science.

Nine out of ten delinquents are frustrated actors.

I did 'Deathly Hallows' so my kids could get on the 'Harry Potter' set. They met Daniel Radcliffe, who was a darling and couldn't have been nicer to them so I'm a hero right now.
