Anthony Hopkins says you just keep acting. Do it all the time and eventually it will happen. He got his break, after all, by taking a role nobody else wanted. A cannibal!

Actors always think that others are getting more work than them. In my case, they usually are.

Well, it's true that I've never been solitary, although I spend a lot of time alone. I've never felt lonely or been shy.

When an actor asks you to read his script, your heart sinks. The number of scripts I've been given by actors that are so unbelievably terrible!

It's well known that actors are lousy writers.

Time and time again I was told that I would never make the film on time and never make it on budget. That kind of criticism tends to turn me into a great big motor of efficiency.

Never give up. You only get one life. Go for it!
