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

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.

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

I wish that the arts were better supported, and you can’t say that enough times, but I also believe that whatever happens, artists will keep going.

For me, it’s important to keep a level of anonymity.

I think that sometimes in theater, I don’t prepare much beyond going to the rehearsals.

I find it weird that people want to know about you.

I reckon domesticated cats have a pretty good life.

My favorite Bond films are the really early ones, the first ones in fact, like ‘Dr. No’ and ‘From Russia with Love.’

I always feel I am in the dark. You are never finished… it is not as if you can look back and think: ah… I know what I am talking about. You are only as good as your last job and are always struggling and striving and you never quite get to where you want to be.

As an actor you have total rights to privacy and mystery, whatever your sexuality, whatever you do. I don’t see why that has to be something you discuss openly because you do something in the public eye. I have no understanding of why we turn actors into celebrities.

It’s fun to pretend you’re good at something you know you wouldn’t be good at in real life.

I was quite a shy child – not chronically, but I tended to blend into the background.

The thing I love about acting is that you can bring something very personal into the open and at the same time remain hidden because you’re always playing a character in a story that someone else has imagined. You’re always protected.

I love films. I love music. I love poetry and stories. All of that I feel… I sort of get very excited and fed by.

I can be shy, but I’m not really. I try to be better at overcoming these things people have said.

Less stuff means less to clean, less to worry about, and less distraction & more savings.

Minimalism brings freedom from the burden of carrying for too much unnecessary stuff.

Living with less stuff helps you tune into your relationships.  

Focus on learning stuff that helps you take the best actions towards your goals.

If you spend more and more money toward stuff, you lose focus on what matters most and lessen our ability to pursue it.  

Once you’re able to let go of unwanted stuff from your life, your world gets so much brighter.

Less stuff is less stress.  

Minimalism isn’t a poor lifestyle. It’s a tool to get rid of unnecessary stuff.
