My instruction to my parents is that I would rather they enjoy their retirement than leave me anything when they go. I am much happier watching them enjoying life.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I have a visual mind, so when I read a book, I get an instant picture in my head and it's very clear.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
You can spend a bit of yourself when you give yourself to a character. At the end of a job, you have to remind yourself who and what you are.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I want to be strong enough to cope with the roles, but I don't want to be cast as the guy that takes his shirt off.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I don't really like making too much of a statement with what I'm wearing.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I've done an awful lot of skiing all over Europe: I've done Italy, Austria, France. I skied loads in New Zealand - I did pretty much every ski slope I could find.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I'm probably not very good at rom-com, being funny on demand; I'll leave that to the comedians.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
You can't reject anything in your life as an artist. Everything has its use.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I kind of got lost down a road of TV and film, so it's great to come back to theatre.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I never like to go out of character when filming starts. I fear that if I do, I might not be able to pick it up again.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I think that when Tolkien created Gollum and the ring, he even expressed in his biography that he never really knew what he created until he went back and looked at it.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
People get to know me slowly and over the course of time. I'll probably still be a newcomer when I'm 60.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
The narrative that Peter Jackson has put into 'The Battle of the Five Armies,' it stands alone as a film. Rather than just finishing off the story, it's like a whole new adventure all of its own. I'm very excited about it.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I'm not interested in building wealth, which is kind of naive and probably frowned on, living in America. It's something that people don't necessarily understand, but if I die poor, I die poor.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I come from very conservative parents, and we weren't particularly wealthy, but we were comfortable.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
Light, trivial comedy does not appeal - it is not something I go to see.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I have been to the theater more since I have lived in New York than I ever really did in London working on a television show.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
It is possible to work out of New York on film and television and still not lose your connection to theater.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I think my fighting skills have certainly been improved by working with Peter Jackson.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
Do people really think that about my nose? I spent my whole life hating it, so it's amusing that people like it!
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
Someone told me a woman bought a dog so she could take it to the same park where I go running, but I'm hoping that's rubbish.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
When you already have a following, people are more likely to employ you.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
If you're used to being a maverick, then people don't get surprised when you start acting strangely.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I confess I've got a yearning to go to Los Angeles, but I can't work out if it is because a lot of British actors seem to go or because there's this perception that the bottom has fallen out of British drama, so therefore, it's the place to head for.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
To survive in a profession like this, you have to have absolute discipline and commitment, and I did not quite have it for musical theater.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
When I told my mom I was going to audition for 'The Hobbit,' she said, 'Well, you've always loved Tolkien.' And she was right.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I think that internal conflict works very well, because, after all, all the best drama is fuelled by conflict.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I've become one of those actors who find it difficult to say 'no' when things are offered.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
Adults will not necessarily laugh at the same thing as their children.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
I think most five-foot-two people would be quite offended if they were to be called dwarves.
Quote by -Richard C. Armitage
Tolkien was, I believe, writing about his experience in the First and Second World Wars, where he would have spent a lot of time without any female contact. He was part of the fellowship of men who went to war, and I think, really, that's what he's writing about.
