“I love being part of a group who tells stories, whether it be in the theater or in cinema, and I love creating imaginary worlds rather as children do, but I never had a burning desire to act, but it just sort of suited me.” WorldChildrenStoriesDesireLove IsGroupsCreatingTheaterBurningCinemaImaginaryBurning DesireImaginary World Author:Jeremy Irons
“I find what I call the [bleep] side of the industry very difficult. You won't see me at other peoples' premiers. I mean, I go to my own premiers because I have to help my film, but I don't enjoy that whole side of it. I don't enjoy celebrityhood. I love getting a seat in a restaurant. I love it when people say hi when I don't know them. I mean, that's fine, but apart from that, I like the elements of celebrityhood which make living in the world like living in your own village.” PeopleKnowsWorldMeanWholeHelpingFilmEnjoyDifficultSidesMy OwnFineIndustryElementsRestaurantsSeatsVillage Author:Jeremy Irons

“You look worldwide for the great leaders, and they're pretty thin on the ground, and of course the problem is unless you're squeaky, squeaky clean, something is going to come out of the cupboard. Most people aren't squeaky clean. Most people have fallen by the wayside once or twice in their lives, and because the world is so transparent now, I think they're very fearful of running for office. It's a huge shame, because often people who have really lived and are amazing people can be brought down by a past indiscretion.” PeopleThinkingWorldProblemRunningPastLeaderOfficeShameFallenFearfulGreat LeaderAmazing People Author:Jeremy Irons
