Like, honest to God, I don't expect people to be into what I'm into.
From Martin Freeman
I don't like affectation.
If everyone's just saying what they feel and doing whatever they want, there's no drama in the world. And there's also no truth to it, 'cause that's just not the truth.
When people bully us, we are complicit in it in some way. We do allow it to happen to some extent.
It's always the case, whenever you're doing someone real, how much you want to do an impression or a characterisation. If I was doing Churchill, or Gandhi - people know exactly how they talked, walked.

I think the hardest part about anything you do for 18 months is just keeping yourself together for 18 months.
I don't get cast as the guy who steps off a yacht in a white linen suit with a martini.
Any pigeonhole is something to be rebelled against.
I've always slightly envied other actors I know who have different reputations. I think, 'God, you don't get people coming up to you, going, 'Hey!' - because they're scared of you.'
