"My vanity is I’m terribly romantic! But being married is lovely." ― Matthew Macfadyen Topic(s): Romantic More From Matthew Macfadyen "I don’t feel like a romantic lead; I guess I feel more like a character actor." "The security comes, as an actor, in knowing that you’re not in control. If you try to control your career, or how people perceive you, you’ll make yourself unhappy, because life doesn’t work like that. So much is luck. It’s much better to let yourself off, to think, ‘There’s nothing I can do.’" "I was quite a shy child. I would get terribly nervous and throw up before my birthday party. And then I would be fine. I feel the same now. I get nervous, then it’s fine." More In Romantic "The word ‘romance,’ according to the dictionary, means excitement, adventure, and something extremely real. Romance should last a lifetime."― Billy Graham "Instead, it appears to be a particular mark of beauty that it is considered with tranquil satisfaction; that it pleases if we also do not possess it and we are still far removed from demanding to possess it."― Moses Mendelssohn "I am a big fan of the old Howard Hawks films from the 30s and 40s, I was a big Hepburn and Tracey fan for a while and Woody Allen films that are a very different kind of romantic comedy."― Edward Burns
