Ralph Fiennes People Quotations

We'd all like to believe that perhaps people could stop killing each other.

I went out to Mount Kilimanjaro, which I thought was very beautiful, but there were a lot of people there.

I got to read some writings by serial killers, and they got inside my head. They were quite disturbing. I read disturbing stuff about that very detached way of manipulating people to do things.

What moves me in art is how we question who we are as people.

The tensions between authority and the people need to be heard, especially when they are suffering and they can't eat.

I can't go and shoot people in the back of the head because It's a kids' movie, which is actually quite a good test because you haven't got the overt threat of a knife in the face.

There's a lot of people who feel there's a tabloid journalist who had it coming.

Yes, it's depressing when there's a lack of clean water and sanitation, ... But here are people living lives of vitality. I only felt welcomed.

But that's why we have marketing and why I'm talking to people like you,

I think he falls in love with her all over again after she's gone and as he uncovers what she had been up to -- her work to uncover a vast and very corrupt corporate and political conspiracy. It's particularly intriguing since -- for much of the early part of the film -- Justin is suspicious of her; thinking she was having an affair.

This constancy, this determination, is in Justin, but it's not high octane. I like that, that people don't get it all in the beginning.

You want to have a critical success and you want people to go see it. It's disappointing if something's well reviewed and no one goes to see it.

Like anything to do with trust, in any relationship it emerges and just the chemistry, vibe between two people [an actor and a director]. You just know whether this is someone I like to be with whose interaction with me I believe in.

It's great to be on a set where there's time and there's focus and there's also a kind of adrenaline thrill on a set where people are saying: "We have to get this shot, we've have to go, we've got to move on!"

I'm interested in the spirits of people. In the theatre, there's the acting part of acting - and I'm not saying that can't be great - and there's the essence. To explore that essence, you need a key, a look, a gesture, an insight that unlocks the person's soul.

Success is all about being able to extend love to people. The people I consider successful are so because of how they handle their responsibilities to other people, how they approach the future, people who have a full sense of the value of their life and what they want to do with it.

Education, awareness and prevention are the key, but stigmatisation and exclusion from family is what makes people suffer most

People fear they won’t get what they want.
