I love the fact you can walk down a street in London and get lost, even though you've lived here 20 years.

I often think a lot of women's attraction to vampires is based on the fact that vampires come from centuries ago, from eras of chivalry and courtly virtues.

Even if you know that what you'll say will hurt a woman's feelings, I've learned that it's better to be truthful with her than it is to cover up. Ultimate honesty is what a relationship is really about.

Vampires are so old that they don't need to impress anyone anymore. They're comfortable in their own skin. It's this enigmatic strength that's very romantic and old-fashioned. I think it goes back to something of a Victorian attitude of finding a strong man who's going to look after his woman.

I'm an English boy. I played a lot of sports growing up, but I never had any kind of workout regimen.

The position of power and having to make decisions that you don't necessarily want to make is always good conflict and good drama.

If my missus is there and she approves of the person I get to bite boobs - and necks.
