I love making people laugh.

Alan Rickman told me to do a play, so I did. Because when Alan Rickman tells you do something, you go and do it.

An author, whether good or bad, or between both, is an animal whom every body is privileged to attack: for though all are not able to write books, all conceive themselves able to judge them.

I wasn't attractive when I was growing up, and I don't think I am now.

There's not many people on the face of the earth that don't know Harry Potter is Daniel Radcliffe. He's had that since he was eleven years old, yet he hasn't changed since the day I met him.

The fame stuff, the kind words from websites and things, are very flattering and lovely, but I just wanna act.

I wasn't bullied or anything at school, but I was quite shy and didn't speak up too much in class.

I'm very comfortable being at home and keeping my head down, really. It's nice being invited to night clubs and stuff, which is nice once in a while, but I prefer to kind of keep to myself.

As long as I'm acting and doing what I love, I'll be happy.

I'm not a big fan of people knowing too much about me.

I've always been partial to comedy. I love the idea of working on a comedic scene.

What we do in every other area of our lives (other than religion), is, rather than respect somebody's beliefs, we evaluate their reasons.

I hated these visits, because I kept feeling the visitors measuring my fat and stringy hair against what I had been and what they wanted me to be, and I knew they went away utterly confounded.

God created man and then woman but the atheist created himself.

In one day, I have times where I'm feeling great, I feel like I love my life, and then 2:30 rolls around and I'm the angriest man alive. My wife sees it.

We need to have a bigger and more significant role for national parliaments. There is not, in my view, a single European demos.

I like period drama because everyone is so restrained, but they have all these emotions raging underneath.

Parents need to listen as much to their kids as they do to them: "The first duty of love is to listen."

Any idealist who tries to join the Peace Corps must realize he is not going to change the world overnight.

If you didn't join for the girls, choose another profession.

Repressive states are developing weapons that could cause destruction on a massive scale.
