A tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure. ”

I don't believe that the public knows what it wants; this is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career. ”

All my pictures are built around the idea of getting in trouble and so giving me the chance to be desperately serious in my attempt to appear as a normal little gentleman. ”
