Dominic West’s 5 most popular quotes
- I’ve hung out at dozens of playgrounds, bored out of my mind, with not even a look of comfort from disapproving mothers all around me. Either they think I’m a pedophile or a deadbeat dad. That’s what I get for being a single dad – suspicious looks at the playground.
- I’m only stopped by people in uniform, whether it’s customs people, janitors, or the FBI – they all watch The Wire. Sadly, beautiful, glamorous women don’t know anything about it.
- Since I got married my wife doesn’t really let me wear anything that I used to because she says I have no taste at all.
- I’m not a great fan of green screen. It’s not much fun for actors. It’s great for directors and technical people and cameramen.
- No, I don’t think ‘The Wire’ screwed up my career at all. It’s the only reason people have heard of me. It’s only been a huge, huge, very fortunate bonus.
