Ben Kingsley

I have a rather naive approach, I think, to my job.

I think Romeo and Juliet is uplifting. That's how much a son wishes to avenge his father. That is how much two young people can love each other.

If I were to play somebody who ran a fish and chip shop, I would not work in a fish and chip shop for three months. Staring at chips is not going to help me in my performance.

I don't like to get in front of people.

People say if you're doing an art project, that's different from a book, but I honestly don't see it. I try and try, and I just don't.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.
