Dominic West's quotes

I don't know why British actors are getting big parts in American TV shows. Maybe it's because we're cheap.
[on The Wire (2002)] The show provokes a kind of obsessive following. Those who love it kind of cherish the fact that it's not quite as world-renowned as The Sopranos (1999). It's like being in a secret club.
You've got to grab every opportunity that comes up.
People seem to think I'm Satan.
The kiss always gets a hell of a reaction.
For a straight man, I seem to have to kiss an awful lot of men!
It would have been an interesting run if we hadn't gotten along! It was good casting, I suppose.
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 look ridiculous in a three-piece suit - I'm too fat.
If you do an American TV series, before the audition you sign away the next five years of your life.
I'm only stopped by people in uniform, whether it's customs people, janitors, or the FBI - they all watch The Wire (2002). Sadly, beautiful, glamorous women don't know anything about it.
No, I don't think The Wire (2002) screwed up my career at all.
Prince Charles is the best-dressed man in the world.
Apparently it'll all settle down and they'll forget about it soon.
I like to believe there are ghosts all over the place!
My mum's parents were from Ireland, my dad's mum was American-Irish.
I mean, I think women should be more indulgent of affairs. I really do. It's daft to kick someone out over a fling. Isn't it? Everyone should turn a blind eye to men's behavior between the ages of 40 and 50. Let it all blow over.
I've always wanted to play more comic parts.
I'm a rather crude cook.
I went to America to get away from constantly being cast in costume dramas, playing posh people.
I think I've got a funny face.
