Text Quotes
Monty Python crowd; half of them came from Cambridge, and half of them came from Oxford. But, there seems to be this jewel, this sort of two headed tradition of doing comedy, of doing sketches, and that kind of thing (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I tend to play rather odd men. People that are slightly odd or eccentric, or have a more particular attitude to life. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
You’re about as useful as a one-legged man at an arse kicking contest (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I can be reasonably funny and light-hearted when I’m in the company of good friends, but I’m not a jokesmith. I tend to be quite serious (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I suddenly think the job of acting is a difficult one. It’s not as flip, irrelevant and shallow a calling as I thought it was in the Eighties (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
To Be Successful You Don’t Need Beautiful Face And Heroic Body, What You Need is Skillful Mind And Ability To Perform (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Lord, thy one-liners are as good as thy tricks. Thou art indeed an all-round family entertainer (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)

I’m not particularly intellectual or clever or minority-focused in my creative instincts. And I’m certainly not aware of suppressing more sophisticated ambitions (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I enjoy racing historic motorcars from the 50s and 60s. The seed of my interest was planted when I was about 12 years old and took over my mother’s Morris Minor. I drove it around my father’s farm. But my favorite car is still a McLaren F1, which I have had for 10 years (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I’m not a naturally funny man. I find that I can only be funny, if I become someone else. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Mr. Bean is at his best when he is not using words, but I am equally at home in both verbal and nonverbal expression (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
You’re about as useful as a one-legged man at an arse kicking contest (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I don’t much enjoy Back and Forth. I mean, I think it has its own particular qualities, but I think it’s inferior to any of the half - hour ones we did (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I feel as though the camera is almost a kind of voyeur in Mr. Bean’s life, and you just watch this bizarre man going about his life in the way that he wants to (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I would return to the Blackadder character if the opportunity came up. I have no qualms about that at all (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
It’s the difficulty we had with Mr. Bean, actually, when it went from TV to film. You certainly discover that you need to explain more about a character (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Marketing is what gets you noticed, and that side of it something - this side of it, if you like, doing interviews - is the side of it that I least enjoy, and yet is 50% of the project (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
When I was doing Bean more than I’ve done him in the last few years, I did strange things - like appearing on chat shows in character as Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Apart from the fact that your physical ability starts to decline, I also think someone in their fifties being childlike becomes a little sad. You’ve got to be careful. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
My personal problem is that I take the business of film-making so seriously that I find it very difficult to relax. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
In the modern media age we are rarely surprised by what we see. Whether it’s on television or film or in the theatre, everything is so advertised, so trailed, that most entertainment is merely what you thought it was going to be like. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I’m sure that a French production of this [Maigret series] would be different. For better or worse, who’s to say, but probably not very good for 8 o’clock on ITV. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Nope, I don’t enjoy work generally. Not because I’m lazy; it’s just all so stressful and worrying. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I feel as though the camera is almost a kind of voyeur in Mr. Bean’s life, and you just watch this bizarre man going about his life in the way that he wants to. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
I have to say that I’ve always believed perfectionism is more of a disease than a quality. I do try to go with the flow but I can’t let go. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
There is always that age-old thing about England and America being divided by a common language. You think that because we speak English and you speak English that you’re bound to understand and like everything that we do. And of course you don’t. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Marketing is what gets you noticed, and that side of it something - this side of it, if you like, doing interviews - is the side of it that I least enjoy, and yet is 50% of the project. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
The arts community still has a long lasting cynicism of the importance, or the artistic value, of comedy. Comedy is just farting about for money. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
Certainly in the second film [Maigret’s Dead Man], which is quite a more unpleasant and darker story, it’s quite different in tone and feel. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
The job is interesting, and the task is difficult, but the man [Maigret] is just a decent man doing a very ordinary job. (Rowan Atkinson Quotes)
