I'm enjoying it, but I still don't know why I'm hooked on acting.

I didn't want to be seen as just a guy on a list. I'm interested in good scripts, scripts that are about something, scripts that move your acting along.

I've never been in a bad play. There might have been bad productions and I might have been bad in them, but I've never been in a play that wasn't interesting or worthwhile doing on some level.

I believe some people in this business suffer from fame because they behave in a famous fashion.

I think great art is always ambiguous and can't be pinned down.

I don't feel ashamed of my wife's political background, and I don't think she should either. I feel that the people who administered the North of Ireland for the last 20 years should be ashamed. There you are.

The worst thing for an actor is a director that gets on your nerves and says things that actually confuse you.
