How these curiosities would be quite forgot, did not such idle fellowes as I put them down.

I did quite a lot of menial jobs. I was a waiter, an inventory clerk touring round properties listing cups and saucers, and a laserquest marshal.

It’s shocking to say, but the cinema is quite a while away from me, and I haven’t got a car yet.

I am quite an early riser – I usually get up between 5.30 and 6am and take the dogs out.

When I went back and watched a couple of the older ‘Doctor Who’ episodes, I could see why some people felt the show had been quite sexist.

I’m quite disappointed that I’ll never relive my teenage years.

I can be quite serious sometimes so laughing is key.

I’m quite a competitive person, so I do quite like to win.

With some CGI, I think the brain slightly perceives that things aren’t real. There’s no gravity, the light’s not quite real, the shadows aren’t quite real.

If there are no other wonderful roles that come my way, I have a quite an interesting, dynamic life.

I don’t miss scenes at all the way that I used to miss them when I was younger making a film. It’s actually quite fun to get rid of them now.

When patronised, I’m unfortunately more flight than fight. Perhaps it’s because I actually feel quite wounded.

Nothing inspires forgiveness quite like revenge.

We still seem to trigger that intensity in people, which was quite incredible.

My mother’s eyes were large and brown, like my son’s, but unlike Sam’s, they were always frantic, like a hummingbird who can’t quite find the flower but keeps jabbing around.

So for me, it can be theatre or being in L.A. or in some other part of the world, as long as I can explore storytelling and human connection through storytelling, I’m quite content.

I’m not picky, quite honestly.

I was quite excited, but I was sure I wouldn’t win the race. I am a realist.

You can’t imagine a world, quite frankly, without a safe and secure aviation system. And so our job is to really focus on that, and what we need to do to keep it safe and...

I can be me, and people seem quite happy with that.

I feel quite fearless protecting the people I love.

I don’t want to demonise ‘Johnny.’ I was really proud of what he achieved. Especially within stand-up. He was quite a unique voice. I will always possibly be trading off ‘Johnny’s name, but there’s a...

Part of the challenge of being an entrepreneur, if you’re going for a really huge opportunity, is trying to find problems that aren’t quite on the radar yet and try to solve those.

I realized that I’m a soft person. I think I’m sensitive. I wanted very much to be tough and I think movie stars have a certain kind of resilience and toughness to them, but I’m...

I got roped into Twitter. I actually quite enjoy it! But I don’t go on as often as some.

I’m quite a good listener, and I’m good at looking after people.

Perhaps not being very self-aware in the past masked depression. I think I was confused. I think I was immature. I think I probably was quite depressed.

I’ll find myself having dinner with people and someone will mention something and I will say I was in that situation once. Then I’ll say, forget it, it was a scene I was in. That...

It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on screen. I think of myself, and feel like I’m quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and...

It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent.

Filming ‘Doctor Who’ is so incredibly different to ‘Spooks.’ Near to the surface, there’s quite a silly atmosphere. A lot of the times, you’re on the verge of giggles because it’s so over the top.

When I wrote ‘Your Republic Is Calling You,’ it was Franz Kafka’s writing that I had most in mind, and James Joyce’s ‘Ulysses.’ Entirely out of the blue, Kafka’s characters receive an order to go...

To be the highest-paid running back ever is quite an honor.

Monet was like a conductor. He painted with quite a straight arm and used bold strokes.

I remember my first scene with Alan Rickman, and I was anxious because he is a slight ‘method’ actor; as soon as he is in his cloak, he walks and talks like Snape – it...

When I look up at the screen and see myself I always have to laugh. Not because I think I’m doing a horrible job, quite the contrary, I just feel it’s so surreal to feel...

I’ll always be grateful for what ‘Doctor Who’ has given me. I go to quite a few fan conventions. It’s lovely to hang out with people you worked with so long ago. And, more than...

I guess I’m about ready to promote myself in a more human way. I don’t feel quite so insecure.

I was a shy and insecure kid and didn’t know quite where I fit.

My mum and I are, in many ways, quite similar. We’re both creative, gregarious, and energetic.

I’m not involved in politics any more and they’re quite right.

I used to audition for ‘NYPD Blue’ quite a bit, so I had this stock New York detective character that I would bring in for all their auditions.

Well, I mean, we are developing the other parts, and we can’t give quite all our attention to the upper part, but soon the lower parts will be developed, and the upper part and the...

Many cities make music, but no city breathes music quite like Memphis. The songs and sounds that come from here are uniquely American.

I’ll be honest – I never saw myself making a ninja movie, never entertained the idea. I think ninja films can be quite cheesy unless you do them in feudal Japan.

A person can be big, because of spirit. A person can be big because of their position in the family, the hierarchy in the family. That role has been played by women who are quite...

Baseball would be a quite remarkable activity if it was the one place in the world where your co-workers didn’t have any impact on how productive you were. But in fact, baseball is a high-stress...

I could, I think, quite easily have gone to Oxford. I got four good A levels, but my father’s income was such that I wouldn’t have got a grant, and he wouldn’t let me go...

Outsiders often have an insight that an insider doesn’t quite have.

Music creates a certain mood and then people dress accordingly. I think it’s all quite closely intertwined.
