Michael York quotes
" A couple of years ago, I co-authored a book on Shakespeare. To do that and to do my day job, I had to wake up early (laughs), so when the book was over, I looked at something else to keep me busy. That was the genesis of the more recent one. "

Michael York
" After Cabaret for example, I was offered a lot of introspective poetry work, but I ended up doing Musketeers, something more testosterone driven. "

Michael York
" Every role I've played, that could've happened. It's nice, it happens, but it is rather disconcerting when a young child comes up to at the airport and starts doing your lines, it happens. "

Michael York
" I always go by instinct. I have been a freelance my whole career, and I always go by my instincts, and thus remain responsible for my own decisions. "

Michael York
" I could not get the two houses to agree on one title for my book, so I said 'whichever one you want.' It's fine with me. "

Michael York
" I had been in a film, playing a young British aristocrat. My wife told me that she was invited to a dinner and she invited me to dinner and the hostess had seen me and said, 'You cannot bring him.' but I think that I've done enough to shatter the image. "

Michael York
" I happen to love working in cinema, but the theater is always there... you know, and I would never shut the door on it. Even though it's been quite a bit of time since I've done a play, last one was in New York. "

Michael York
" I think it's hard to know. Feeling fulfilled, because actors face periods of unemployment, there is nothing worse than being at the top of your game; you have so much to give but do not have the platform to do this. "

Michael York
" I think that you have to believe in your destiny; that you will succeed, you will meet a lot of rejection and it is not always a straight path, there will be detours - so enjoy the view. "

Michael York
" I've always enjoyed writing, I graduated with a degree in English; I've done bits of journalism. "

Michael York
" It's a question of why they come for your advice. Whatever I tell you, it doesn't matter, it is completely irrelevant in a way. I know so many actors who were discouraged and put that aside. You will get half-baked opinions. "

Michael York
" It's not like you are a rock star and your freedom is infringed upon, but it's just nice. Especially in the movies when you are working in the dark. "

Michael York
" Mike gets to play four roles this time, if we ever did it again, he will play my role as well. He is a comic genius, everyone wants to be in this movie, let's hope that everyone will wish to see it as well. "

Michael York
" Monty Pythons were my contemporaries at Oxford. And they took that university wit and universalized it. "

Michael York
" So that is how I ended up with those two titles, I like Accidentally on Purpose better - it is how we work in our trade - is it really an accident, or is there a thread of destiny in there? That was the intention, I am not sure I found out. "
