“Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a g...” — Gary Oldman Quote

“Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a great actor. You just have to have that.”

“Being an actor is a good way to earn a living. And to meet fabulous people. It's great to live very comfortably. I've been lucky, I've had a lot of fun with great roles, but it is true that if I were extremely rich, I would stop and I would go to play football on a beach in the Caribbean with my children.”

“It's a shame about California, and particularly about L.A., where they've demolished so many landmarks. It's a bit of a disease there, where if anything is over 30 years old, they sort of knock it down and replace it. It's a strange town, it's this sprawling suburb, and then there's a city, the old town.”

“You have to be super close to yourself, and comfortable with it being revealed, in order to be a good actor.”

“I still don't think I'm a good actor. The only reason I'm doing it is because I've got a lot of support behind me.”

“James Spader is a good actor.”
