Bill Nighy

• "I don't even own a car.“
• "My dad had a personal style which was very attractive. It was quite reserved and quite elegant, and it was infectious.“
• "I like being in kids' movies, and I like being in family movies.“
• "I'm not a royal family watcher.“
• "When you have a family, or even when you're just seeing a girl, it's difficult to be skint.“
• "I'm not famous for my back story investigations I'm lucky that I work with good writers and it's usually in the script.“
• "I know really, really famous people who are terrified every time they walk on to a stage.“
• "I don't seem to be able to learn from experience or anything useful. History doesn't help me. Precedents don't inform my experience.“
• "Actors always talk about taking their work home and I always think: 'What are you on? You just turn it off. You are at work and then you go home.'“
• "I like being in kids' movies, and I like being in family movies.“
• "Anyone who can do the splits and come back up on the backbeat, as James Brown and Prince can, has my eternal respect. Prince, who is a genius of the highest order, can come back up while singing and playing the guitar.“
• "It can't be overstated how wonderful it is not to have to audition any more. Any actor will tell you, it's like Christmas.“
