Michael Crawford's quotes

  • If it had not been for Benjamin Britten (the composer), I wouldn't have been an actor. He gave me belief, self-belief.
  • Sometimes you learn more from failure than you do from success, and in some ways it's better to have failure at the beginning of your career, or your life.
  • [on The Phantom of the Opera (1925)] The passion and drama in the Lon Chaney version is unsurpassable. He was superb, he was superb. I owe a lot to Lon Chaney.
  • I think one of the best words in the English language is compassion. I think it holds everything. It holds love, it holds care... and if everybody just did something. We all make a difference.
  • [on Frank Sinatra] He had such an influence. He was the most and still is the most remarkable singer to me, with the phrasing and his length of phrase.
