Terence Stamp

It's such a performance to bring stuff into America. It's a great luxury when I am in England.

All actors are incredibly insecure.

As a boy I believed I could make myself invisible. I'm not sure that I ever could, but I certainly had the ability to pass unnoticed.

A lot of newspapers say, Terence Stamp is playing himself and we're as bored as he is.

I'm still tap dancing. I'm still going.

Unless I try, I'm never really going to be at ease with myself.

Physically, I couldn't fold myself into a gray, invisible bank clerk. I just thought, It's the most amazing part. It's a pity that I'm wrong for it.

The very first film I ever saw was during the war. My mother took me, I must have been about 4, and that was Beau Geste, with Gary Cooper.

To work with a guy like Wyler early in your career was just an incredible thing, because he gave me an amazing amount of confidence.

I have to be stretched in some way. There's not enough things that come my way that I fancy.

I work primarily for the camera-it's not something I really talk about a lot, but it's part of the way I am as a movie actor. The camera is my girl, as it were.

Wyler was educational... the way he made space for a young actor like myself was rare. His direction was ideal.

It wasn't until I saw James Dean that I began to think that maybe I could actually do this. Movies didn't have to be just this fantasy with this impossibly handsome guy.
