“I’m really hopeless with technology – I don’t even have a computer.”

I find it really hard to say anything coherent or interesting about the work I do.

I don’t think anyone can walk through the world in a state of vulnerability all the time, can they?

One of the things I find very difficult about theatre is the repetition – that something can slide away from your original intentions.

I’ve been out to LA a couple of times but, over there, the Grenouille in me always comes to the surface. I feel completely terrified, totally flummoxed, like I don’t understand what the hell is going on. I’ve no desire at all to go back there.

I’ve gone on workout regimes, but I seem to have a system that is very resistant to changing.

Even today, England is a very repressed, repressive country, and there’s pressure to be kind of a certain way, so people do things that ultimately make them sad.

I love the characters I’ve had the opportunity to play.

What I notice about people who are gifted in filmmaking is that they’re great thinkers. They engage with big ideas and they engage with people.

I would have loved to have been a painter or a sculptor. I’m still fascinated by those things.

I am a typical Libran. I tend to see two sides of everything.

I’d like to have a go at directing.

When you have a character to work with, you carry them around in a strange way – they make you look at the world in a different way.

The criminal justice system, like any system designed by human beings, clearly has its flaws.

We are so mired in the complexity of our reactions to other people that when you come across someone who is asocial, there is a simplicity that is refreshing.

Filmmakers tell stories to explore human nature, which is always a flawed thing.

My intuition comes up with better stuff than my head, I think.

Bill Gates did predict that computers for people made sense because he wrote a basic.

When we first started with Apple computers, it was my dream that everyone would learn to program, and that was how they’d use their computer.

Why we do what we do: that moment when you get to see the future on your computer screen before the rest of the world.

My goal wasn’t to make a ton of money. It was to build good computers.

If I designed a computer with 200 chips, I tried to design it with 150. And then I would try to design it with 100. I just tried to find every trick I could in life to design things real tiny.

Back in high school I told my dad, “I’m going to have a computer someday.” And he said that it cost as much as a house-the downpayment on a house. And I said, “Well, I’ll live in an apartment.”

My whole life had been designing computers I could never build.

College just didn’t even have computers for an under-curriculum when I started college.
