A Quote by Rhys Ifans

Acting is not an intellectual process for me. It comes from my heart. It's this strange netherworld of osmosis where I simply become. — © Rhys Ifans
Acting is not an intellectual process for me. It comes from my heart. It's this strange netherworld of osmosis where I simply become.

I am simply in favor of intellectual hospitality-that is all. You come to me with a new idea. I invite you into the house. Let us see what you have. Let us talk it over.

Your body is free but your heart is in prison. To release your heart, you simply reverse the process which locked it up. First you begin to listen for messages from your heart-messages you may have been ignoring since childhood. Next you must take the daring, risky step of expressing your heart in the outside world. . . . As you learn to live by heart, every choice you make will become another way of telling your story. . . . It is the way you were meant to exist. If you stop to listen, you'll realize that your heart has been telling you so all along.

This is the strange way of the world, that people who simply want to love are instead forced to become warriors.
I've dated some women who have turned me on to some funny things that are strange for men to actually do, but these things have become part of my process. I think the things I do for my appearance help make me look better. I even colour my hair because I like how it makes me look.
When people ask me what I do for a living, I generally tell them 'I run a hedge fund.' The majority give me a strange look, so I quickly add, 'I am a money manager.' When the strange look persists, as it often does, I correct it to simply, 'I'm an investor.' Everyone knows what that is.
I think the best way to become a character is by osmosis as opposed to thinking directly about stuff.
