Ian Smith's quotes

• I love the silly old fart but as an actor, I would like to stretch myself beyond that because you're in danger of becoming the character you play, especially for so many years, so I want to get away from that.
• One day, I realised I didn't want to do it anymore and I always promised myself that if that day happened, I wouldn't be fair to Harold if I did keep doing it because it would become false.
• I love retirement too much. It's a pity not everyone can afford to do so. It makes you stop and have a good look at yourself.
• In my mind I am still a jobbing actor and I can't get used to the fuss that is made about Harold.
• I've never been very confident in my ability to act but I see some people on the silver screen and I think, 'I think I could have done that'. Who knows.
• I've really not broken into the movie world and I really would love to do a movie before I hang up my voice.
• I watched young people from the shows that I was in leave when they were not being asked to leave and go on to do bigger and better things and I thought they were mad walking away from the money. And now I know why they did it.
• He is somebody that I always wanted to play. He is a little collection from all the wonderful old English actors that I used to admire and it just seems funny that I am being rewarded like this. It is good fun, I love it.
