Kindness and a generous spirit go a long way. And a sense of humor. It's like medicine - very healing.
Max Irons
American actors are all muscular, tanned, white teeth and they have this indestructible confidence. We British are all... Dare I say it? Pessimistic.
I like reading, free diving and hiking. But my favorite thing to do is travel anywhere in Greece. I love everything about that place.
I haven't read the 'Twilight' books. But it's everywhere so I feel like I know it. Edward, Bella, Jacob, etc. but... I haven't read them.
My name has opened doors and slammed doors shut.
I never wear sneakers. I don't feel comfortable in them.
'The Host' is very much in the same vein as 'Twilight', and there's clearly a huge fan base out there. But I can't imagine myself being as huge as Robert Pattinson. I'm not sure I could handle that level of fame.
Coats are my favorite thing, and it's always cold in England. I'm comfortable spending a bit of money if you know you're going to be wearing it 10 years later.
I always feel kind of awkward when I look at pictures of myself. Watching videos of myself is really uncomfortable.
The actors I respect are the ones who see it as a career and manage to live reasonably normal lives, like Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
I like to think that at the end of a show, you can just take your costume off and go to the pub.
Once you become the story off-screen, you are less likely to be the onscreen one.
Acting advice is a bit like your parents teaching you how to drive a car. You know they're right, but you still kind of want them to shut up a bit.
As a child I'd get given parts as a tree.
It's a mistake to dwell too much on the consequences of a piece of work that you're making.
I can see why there's a misconception that it's easier when your parents are actors, but it doesn't work out at all. In fact, it's the reverse.
I mean, it's fine when you're a kid and someone runs into the playground and goes, 'I've got this great game of pretend,' and you play... As an actor, getting to play, getting to use your imagination and be childish - it is weird but it's wonderful.
If you try to bring 'teen drama,' you end up doing nothing but pouting.
I've got my dad's height and smoking habit. But I think I've got my mum's looks and sensibilities.
With acting, I've got a character to inhabit. You've got to think about your intentions and your directions. In modeling, even though there's an act to it, a good model is a good model. For me it's uncomfortable territory. You start to feel quite insecure about yourself. There's nothing between you and the camera, and it's just you.
You know, Taylor Lautner, with a body like that, he should be taking his shirt off. For me, it's not so essential.
For me, comfort is paramount.
I don't look on the Internet; it's a world of pain.
I think New York is more stylish than London.
I've always wanted to be a fighter pilot. But I don't want to kill people. I'd hate to.
