David Soul's quotes

• [on Starsky & Hutch (2004)] In a word, I thought it sucked.
• I believe that a parent's role is to provide a path or opportunity for their children.
• My father was my main influence. He was a preacher, but he was also a history and political science teacher, and since he was my hero, I wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a teacher.
• Nobody teaches you to be a father. Nobody teaches you to be a husband. Nobody teaches you how to be a star. You have to learn to work with the tools.
• One of my beliefs is that there are certain institutions within a community which stand for the spirit and heart of that community, there's the church, the local football team, the local pub and the theatre.
• Sometimes I feel an obligation to be accessible as a personality, but for me the driving force since the beginning has always been good work, taking risks, trying new things. If the door opens, go through it. Always go forwards.
• I was an accidental actor. I was never formally trained.
• Being on the move all the time is draining, but the rewards make up for it.
• A job is a very healthy thing to do.
• It's only when gravity starts to take over you begin to think about your body.
• I like to eat and I love the diversity of foods.
• The most important thing is story-telling. It's as singular and old-fashioned as that.
• Music always came first. I never set out to be an actor.
• It's important to move the theatre into the 21st Century.
• If these theatres didn't exist, the tradition of British theatre would cease to exist.
• I was born into a family of preachers.
• Once in a while I'll get moved to do some exercise. It's something I long for but the biggest problem is bending down and putting my tennis shoes on. Once I go out I'm OK.
• I went into acting because I had to make a good living. I had a child now and I had to support him any way I could... I wasn't happy, but I wasn't unhappy. I was just doing what I had to do to survive.
• I was never jailed. The fact is that I was arrested, but I went into a diversion programme, and by that time I'd already begun working in what was called anger management. It was a painful and awful moment.
• At only 20 years old I got married. I was still a kid myself, but in those times, if you got someone pregnant, you had no choice but to get married. So I left school and the only thing I could do was sing.
• Yes, your home is your castle, but it is also your identity and your possibility to be open to others.
• To deal with the stark reality of having hit or hurt a woman or child, to deal with the initial responsibility you have not to do that and the knowledge you did do it, can be incredibly hard.
• People thought me a bit strange at first; a blond haired, blue-eyed Norwegian who sang Mexican folk songs, but I used it to my advantage and got a job. And so the music became my ticket to education.
• Paul and I were both struggling actors. One night he would serve me in a restaurant, and the next night I would serve him. It was what out of work actors did.
