“Your English style will no doubt put all the other gentlemen to bed. I...” — John Gielgud Quote

Your English style will no doubt put all the other gentlemen to bed. I speak figuratively, of course.

Acting is half shame, half glory. Shame at exhibiting yourself, glory when you can forget yourself.

I often think that a slightly exposed shoulder emerging from a long satin nightgown packs more sex than two naked bodies in bed.

There are a whole bunch of roles where people say, 'Oh, you're playing yourself.' I guess it's kind of a compliment. Or people say, 'Oh, man, you just roll out of bed and do that.' The work is to make it look effortless. That's the hard part.

The one thing my mom taught me was to never go to bed without washing my face, and so I wash my face at least twice a day.

I have a wife and a son and daughter. What do I need to do to make their lives better, happier? What can I do in terms of my time or my attention given that I am very busy at work? That's a personal rule of thumb I live by from the moment I get up to the moment I go to bed.
