“If you're in the business of law you're in the business of representation and precedent.”

“I grew up under Thatcher; the era of apartheid; the era of the poll tax; the era of riots. I remember Neil Kinnock was a hero.”

“I think that presidents don't give up power that has accrued to them by the precedent of previous presidents. Even when they say they would like to, I think once they get there they don't give it up.”

“The first few touches of the game, that's kind of like setting the precedent for me.”

“Ultimately, with every film I'd done before, there was a reference. They have their own uniqueness, but there was always a precedent.”
