Richard E. Grant Quotes
“Anthony Hopkins says you just keep acting. Do it all the time and eventually it will happen. He got his break, after all, by taking a role nobody else wanted. A cannibal!”“I am drawn to writing and directing as it is most like the feeling I had when I was a teenager with my puppet theatre.
