Toby Stephens Quotes
- The Humpback Trail on New Zealand’s South Island is really beautiful. It is a 70 km walk over about four days and is fairly arduous. You go through prehistoric forest and up to the top of Humpback Mountain, where there are amazing views down to the Tasman Sea.
- I am a Londoner and I love my home. There are many things about this country which drive me crazy, but when I am in America, I feel wrong there.
- I would love to be in a Jimmy McGovern drama on TV, but there is no way he would ever ask me unless it would be to play a lawyer or something.
- Actors don’t listen to each other. You’re so obsessed with what you’re saying or doing that the other person could be talking in Swahili and you wouldn’t know.
- I love traveling with my laptop because I get a bit nervous if I can’t access my e-mails.
- If I was to meet Lou Reed or Bob Dylan, I would be totally helpless. Writers and musicians make me feel completely starstruck.
- I think all parts come with baggage unless it is a brand new play. If one was daunted by that, you would never do anything.
- Screen is satisfying because it’s so technical and mysterious. It’s like playing roulette: you get a script, you think it’s either great or naff, but you have no idea how it will really turn out. On stage, you are your own editor – and you get brief moments of grace, where suddenly you feel free.
- I love Scotland, mainly for its landscape. I like walking, and it’s a great place to go hiking.
- I blub all the time, in the most weird situations – not in the ones that should make me cry. Music makes me very emotional.
- I’m fair-skinned, so beaches are a bit boring for me. I’m either smeared in lotion or under a shade. However, I do love the sea – diving, swimming and snorkeling.
- My parents’ parents were regular working-class people. I ended up speaking in a certain way, and one gets sidelined into doing certain parts. I think that is really quite narrow-minded.
- That’s the privilege of being a grandparent – they can indulge the children while parents have to be the bad guy. Grandparents can also be subversive and naughty with them.
- Growing up, I went to many schools, and I had to fit in to many different types of environments with totally different social groups. It helps me out as I move from job to job.
- I’ve learnt an enormous amount from my children. Mostly that my agenda isn’t the most important thing in the world. For a while, I was trying to squeeze them into my life. And it was such torment! It makes you realize how selfish you are.
- Some men are into Hollywood glamor stuff and some are not.
