jealousy regret believe
There's no regret. You can't regret. I mean, I've felt regret but I've also refused to allow regret to sow a seed and live in me because I don't believe it. You feel it, it's like guilt, it's like jealousy, it's like all those horrible things. You've just got to snip them and get them out, because they're no good.
soapbox brilliant utopia
I've always liked what Thomas More said in Utopia, which is that in Utopia every person is allowed their own lifestyle and religion but no one is allowed to stand on a soapbox and tell others that theirs is right. I thought that was brilliant. Brilliant.
law play four
Rafferty [Law] plays three or four instruments. He is very gifted. Whereas I pick instruments up and kind of stare at them and go, "I can't ever possibly play this." And I don't!
pockets handkerchiefs showy
You have a handkerchief, put it in your pocket.
law names three
I'm not called Jude Law, I have three names; I'm called 'Hunk Jude Law' or 'Heartthrob Jude Law'. In England anyway, that's my full name. That's the cheap language that's thrown around, that sums you up in one little bracket. It doesn't look at your life. But if one looks beyond, there is actually a little bit more.
fun thinking play
The greatest gift an actor can have is not revealing who he is but through the parts he plays. Unfortunately, we live in a world where everyone wants to know everything all the time and I think it takes away part of the fun of acting that we have to go through that all the time.
cocktails cold straight-up
I always prefer things straight up, not cold or watered down. Not big on cocktails either.
wicked roles witch
I`ve always thought Prince Charming in Cinderella was the most boring role; I`d rather be the Wicked Witch.
fun effort events
Making an effort is polite, and getting ready and looking after yourself makes an event more fun.
dangerous our-future intrigued
I suppose I'm intrigued with the bad traits of society, because I'm a part of society, and the bad traits pose the dangerous questions for our future.
passionate want
I don't want to do anything that I'm not passionate about.
nice home london
London is my home... I know what's right and wrong here, and it's nice to have somewhere familiar to go back to.
fans reason
I've never been a fan of just doing. I like to do things for a reason.
old-things use actors
You are [as an actor] aware that you don't want to repeat stuff, but you want to use what has worked. But you don't want to be accused of just going over the old thing, you know? You want it to start growing a little bit more.
