Biography of Francis Bond Head
If you dispute with me you will only quarrel with your bread and butter.
Tags: Bread, Dispute, QuarrelAlthough I had arrived in total darkness the light of truth at once burst upon my mind and I perceived most clearly that the republicans had overreached themselves.
Tags: Light, Mind, TruthI have an internal protectiveness where it's like, if it comes to just me, as frightened as I am of losing someone I love or things going sour or simply being alone, there is a dark place in my brain where I'm like, It could happen and I'm okay, I'm prepared.
Tags: Alone, Love, SomeoneI hate being looked at. Can't stand it. I know, I know - I picked the wrong career. I should have been a doctor. If you play certain parts you have this nice face painted on you, and then you have feel as if you have a responsibility to this idea of being beautiful. I hate that about our business.

Tags: Difficult, Found, FriendsDoes our culture have a need for violence? I don't know. I guess it's a personal thing.
Tags: Culture, Personal, ViolenceI am very much a seat-of-the-pants actor. I will prepare when I have to. But I like being unprepared.
Tags: Actor, Prepare, UnpreparedI look at someone like Kathryn Bigelow, and I have so much admiration. She's playing in the boy's sandpit, and winning.
Tags: She, Someone, WinningI love being physical, but I am extreme either way. I can be superfit. And then I can be really lazy and ignore everything.
Tags: Ignore, Lazy, LoveI'm 40 next year and I'm very well aware that where I am now, it becomes a bit of a wilderness for actresses.
Tags: Bit, Next, YearI'm sort of like a T. rex in the world of female actresses. Every time a job is finished, I look at my car and think, 'Could I live in it?'
Tags: Car, Job, TimeSince being quite young, I've had a very strong sense of independence and survival. As a child, I was on my own two feet emotionally.
Tags: Sense, Strong, YoungSometimes it's a bizarre, fairly cold, and horrifying thing to be a parent.
Tags: Cold, Parent, SometimesWith fantasy and sci-fi, it's based in a real fandom. You're presenting to experts, and their source material is really important to them.
Tags: Based, Material, RealGetting the role in '300' saved me. I'd been out of work for 11 months after 'The Brothers Grimm.' Once the film came out and didn't do so well, the director Terry Gilliam blamed me for absolutely everything. It was pretty appalling, and I had started to wonder if I'd ever get another job again when I was asked to audition for '300.'
Tags: Job, Pretty, WorkI've got quite a big gay following. I played a lesbian prostitute in the TV series 'Band Of Gold' but I think my following really grew when I played one in the film 'Imagine Me & You,' with Piper Perabo.
Tags: Big, Gay, LesbianI've never directed before, so I need to make sure that people know that I can. The movie that I've written, 'The Sophisticates,' is a... small ensemble comedy and I hope it's charming and funny.
Tags: Funny, Hope, SmallIf you play certain parts, you have this nice face painted on you, and then you have feel as if you have a responsibility to this idea of being beautiful. I hate that about our business. It shouldn't inform what you do. But there's a perceived inverse relation between looks and talent.
Tags: Beautiful, Business, Nice'Lost Boys' is one of my all-time faves. I just thought it would be great to be a vampire. I remember this movie called 'Once Bitten,' which is about an '80s sort of power girl who became a vampire and was really, like, sexy. Hair like she was from 'Dallas,' shoulder pads, big earrings.
Tags: Girl, Great, PowerNothing I do is by design. It's always the result of a happy accident. I didn't have a career plan. It has just become the way it is. It's all good fun.
Tags: Design, Good, HappyThere is something in the act of having tattoos done that I love. It can be quite addictive. I've got a few on my back because my friend is an artist, and a few on my arms. Every time I pass a tattoo parlour, I think, 'Maybe just a tiny one.'
Tags: Friend, Love, TimeThere's a perceived inverse relation between looks and talent. Look at Charlize Theron - she made herself ugly for 'Monster' and suddenly everyone said 'she's a genius.' It shouldn't be like that.
