There was a phase in my career in my late 20s and 30s when I was doing strange, arty-farty Euro films that were, you could tell, never had much chance of any release anywhere in the world.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I don't do much acting anymore anyway, and not to work for 20th Century Fox is really the least of my worries.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I get more satisfaction out of comedy stuff. I'm a laugh tart. I make no secret of that fact.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm not a great believer in marriages as an institution, or even in very long term relationships. I'm not sure we're built that way.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Although I'm largely doing other things in life, it's very nice occasionally to put my toe back in the waters of show business.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I've got four houses in my street. I live in two, and the others are empty. I'll buy more as they come up, because I think it would be great to have the entire street.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
'The Lair of the White Worm' is quite a strange film. It's difficult to be good when you're saying lines that have been translated from Spanish to English by someone who speaks French.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
All I know is for a number of years, if someone like me called police for a burglary, a mugging, or something happened to me, chances are that a photographer or reporter would turn up before a policeman.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Frankly, I think I'm marvelous in rehearsal! Then you turn the camera on, and it gets stiff and tight. And then you trudge back to your trailer feeling sad. That's been my experience of film acting.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I have known a few good marriages, but very few. And others look to me like they're pretty miserable. I don't really think that's a recipe for happiness.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I dreaded the dance scene in 'Love Actually' more than having my teeth extracted.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm a great believer in eccentrically-shaped modern families. Because I've seen them work so well. And as long as everyone loves each other, it can work very well.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
If every play was three weeks, I'd do lots of plays. It's just the idea of six months, I think, that might drive me a bit nuts.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Love scenes are extremely difficult. You're always within a millimeter of sentimentality and 'yuck.'
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I don't hate L.A., but I'm nervous about becoming one of those people who has a ferocious interest in how films did at the box office that weekend and, you know, would want to meet for egg-white omelets in the morning.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
At my school, which was all boys, I played almost exclusively lady parts. When I say lady parts, I mean parts that were ladies. To actually play lady parts would be weird, even by English standards.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Some newspapers in Britain have become closer to these kind of mafia families. They wield an incredible power. They choose our governments, they choose our prime ministers, and they live above the law.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
There were various turning points, but the main one at the beginning was that I was going off to do another degree in the history of art. I would have ended up as some art historian at Sotheby's or something.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm quite jealous of my Scottish relations, in whose culture everyone, in a Jane Austen kind of way, got married very young, when you're too young to be cynical or jaded and just started having children.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Something about teaching is curiously attractive, actually. I don't know what it is.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm a terrible vacillator; I can be sure of something one day and change my mind the next.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
In the last couple of weeks I have seen the ads for the Wonder Bra. Is that really a problem in this country? Men not paying enough attention to women’s breasts?
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I think marriage is only necessary if you've got children. It's quite nice for them.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
The angry Scot is a cliche not without some foundation. That's the Lowland Scot - I'm a Highlander. We're particularly lovely and charming.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
If it's a choice between doing a film and not doing a film, I'd rather not. But then, you remember that you're supposed to be earning a living and that it's your career.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
My whole history of being an actor is unusual and slightly disgraceful because it should be something you burn to do.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
For a few years, I thought I was putting show business behind me. I was busy doing other things in life, particularly with politics. I was not out looking for films, really. I lost interest.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm a terrible actor. I'm still learning. When I first started, I wish I knew then to trust myself more, really. I was in a terrible panic in the early part of my career.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I suppose after 'Four Weddings' I was very busy for a bit, and I imagined that was my career, but I never had that thing of, 'I'm burning to be an actor. If I don't act, I'm not alive.' I've never had that.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Courage is soldiers fighting on the front line, or people living on the bread line.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Like lots of people who say, 'I'm going to write a novel,' it's actually more comfortable to think I could write a novel than to discover that you can't.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
A lot of actors look at scripts and think, 'How will this stretch me as an actor?' But I always thought, 'Do I want to turn the page? Is this going to make people laugh?'
Quote by -Hugh Grant
It's very rare in life to be sure about something - particularly when it's an issue.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I'm such a chronic relativist, I can't hold down a strong opinion about many things long enough.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
As it is, I have a limited range as an actor - light comedy. I have never been a fan of romantic comedies, and yet that is what I have ended up mostly doing.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
Japanese women have always loved my films, even when no one else did. Ever since I made 'Maurice' in the 1980s, I've been getting hundreds of letter from Japanese girls. They definitely have a special place in my heart.
Quote by -Hugh Grant
I think there's something unromantic about marriage. You're closing yourself off.
