Life is easy greediness adds complexity.

Critics should be to actors what ornithologists are to birds: they can write all they want, but it shouldn’t affect them.

It’s horrible to get a cameraphone shoved in your face every time you walk out the door.

I can’t watch shows like ‘The X Factor,’ for instance. I just squirm for the people involved, for the way they’re being used. It’s the cruellest, most ridiculous show on television. It’s ruined music, ruined everything.

You never undertake a project because you think other people will like it – because that way lies madness – but rather because you believe in it.

I’m incredibly proud of ‘Life On Mars’ and ‘Doctor Who.’ They’re just a blast to do.

I’m good at being on my own. As a kid, I was always in my room alone, so I have a high threshold for it. If I’m bored, I’ll read. Hanging around doesn’t go well with me.

Twitter has restored my faith in humanity. I thought I’d hate it, but while there are lots of knobheads, there are even more lovely people. It delights me how witty and friendly most people are.

I’m not a people person. I’m not sociable. I have been and I can be, but not as a general rule.
