I'm not a great fan of green screen. It's not much fun for actors. It's great for directors and technical people and cameramen.

I'm only stopped by people in uniform, whether it's customs people, janitors, or the FBI - they all watch The Wire. Sadly, beautiful, glamorous women don't know anything about it.

I don't know why British actors are getting big parts in American TV shows. Maybe it's because we're cheap.

I think I've got a funny face.

Since I got married my wife doesn't really let me wear anything that I used to because she says I have no taste at all.

You've got to grab every opportunity that comes up.

The kiss always gets a hell of a reaction.

Even though I'm English, I've all my life been heavily exposed to American television and culture in general.

I went to America to get away from constantly being cast in costume dramas, playing posh people.

Apparently it'll all settle down and they'll forget about it soon.

For a straight man, I seem to have to kiss an awful lot of men!

Each day the world is born anew for him who takes it rightly.

God always smiles because of our little deeds done with a good heart, but to make the heart of God always beat for you, win and keep a soul for Him!

Political liberty is to be found only in moderate governments.

The essence of influence is pull. It's an attraction. Great influencers attract people, to themselves, and to their ideas.

Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?

Think not thy love to God merits God's love to thee; His acceptance of thy duty crowns His own gifts in thee; man's love to God is nothing but a faint reflection of God's love to man.

The Bible is a sanctum; the world, sputum.

Science is the most intimate school of resignation and humility, for it teaches us to bow before the seemingly most insignificant of facts.

The structure of language determines not only thought, but reality itself.

Sometimes, I have lost out on a gig because I was not high enough profile.
