Freddie Highmore's quotes

  • When I left the set of Finding Neverland (2004), I was quite upset, because I thought I wouldn't see Johnny again. And Charlie wants to go back to the chocolate factory. We both got our wishes.
  • Well, you just sort of think about what the character's thinking, and then you're in the character.
  • I'm not sure what I would like to do when I'm older. I might want to travel and see the world. That would be quite fun.
  • [Talking about being treated like an adult] That was really important for me, although I think I am a bit more mature than some kids my age because I've spent more time with adults. And I haven't grown my hair over my eyes or anything.
  • It's nice to pick up the guitar now and again and play back the songs and be reminded of the film -- but if you gave me any other songs to play, I wouldn't be very good at them.
  • [Talking about his dressing room demands] Because I'm a spoiled little brat, I absolutely always insist on a table and chair and lighting. This February I'm even going to demand heating.
  • Scary is good. Kids like going to a movie and being really scared rather than fake scared.
  • When I work on something it becomes all-consuming for me.
  • [on celebrity] As long as you don't stand on the corner and wave your arms about, people don't notice you too much.
  • There's no point playing a scene if, by the end, everyone's in the same state they were in at the start.
  • Part of the appeal of procedurals, in general, is that there's a continuity and consistency week after week; that you can come to the show and know what you're going to get.
