Christopher Plummer Quotations

I'm talking about when you're nearer the end of your life than the beginning. Now what do you think you think about then? The future? In the future I'm going to do this? Become that? What future? No. What you think is, 'How will I be regarded in the end?'

I just can't tell you what fun I've had being a member of the world's second oldest profession.

I couldn't believe when I first got a fan letter from Al Pacino, it was unreal.

Most of my life I have played a lot of famous people but most of them were dead so you have a poetic license.

If the movie is terrible you can have fun. You can joke about it and have a ball. The movie is already sort of established as a kind of extraordinary piece of work even though it hasn't opened yet to the public. It is harder because you can't go against it and you can't be interesting. You have to go with the flow. Although one is very happy to be in it, it is sort of hard to talk about it. It is hard to talk about successful. It is much easier to talk about failure.
