Anthony Hopkins

Welsh - Actor Born: December 31, 1937

With the author

I'm one of the slowest drivers on the road. I mosey along. If you're doing anything too fast, including living life too fast, that creates sudden death. If I have to be somewhere on time, I make sure I leave early enough.

Anthony Hopkins

I'm married. My wife, Stella - a beautiful woman. She's brought a lot of peace to my life, a lot of wisdom.

Anthony Hopkins

If I spent all my time criticising myself, I wouldn't be able to function. There are actors who theorise till the cows come home. I haven't the patience for them. It's maybe shallow, but that's why I'll never be part of the acting set.

Anthony Hopkins

I remember coming to New York in 1974 to do a play here called 'Equis.' And I remember the first morning getting up and walking around the streets, and I thought, 'I'm home.' I felt really at peace here.

Anthony Hopkins

My father was grounded, a very meat-and-potatoes man. He was a baker.

Anthony Hopkins

I hope I would not be so arrogant as to doubt anyone's religion or belief.

Anthony Hopkins

I've felt like an outsider all my life. It comes from my mother, who always felt like an outsider in my father's family. She was a powerful woman, and she motivated my father.

Anthony Hopkins

Why love if losing hurts so much? I have no answers anymore; only the life I have lived. The pain now is part of the happiness then.

If you look closely, there is no book more visual than Three Trapped Tigers, in that it is filled with blank pages, dark pages, it has stars made of words, the famous magical cube made of numbers, and there is even a page which is a mirror.

Guillermo Cabrera Infante

I've been famous my entire life; I don't know any other way.

Cher

You can be famous for a lot of things. You can be a Nobel-prize winner. You can be the fattest guy in the world.

Evel Knievel

I didn't get into skating to be famous.

Eric Heiden

I'd change nothing in my career path. I was never built for being a handsome teenage star. That's just not in my psyche, I think. I would have hated to have grown up famous.

Jason Clarke

I feel lucky, where I'm not 'famous' famous. I'm not someone that everyone kind of knows for no reason. If people know who I am, they like me because if they didn't like me, they forgot about me.

Bo Burnham

I don't want to create controversy; I just have an opinion on things, and there is nothing wrong with stating your opinion if you are asked. Everyone wants that right, and because you are famous doesn't mean you have less of a right.

John Travolta

There's this common perception that having a famous last name is all you need. A surname may get you a meeting, but if there's no talent you won't get the part.
