    • Anthony: I was in North London, I remember, doing a play, and the news came through that Robert Kennedy had been assassinated. I thought, 'The world has completely gone insane.'
    • Anthony: I said, 'I can't play Nixon. I'm not an American'.
    • Anthony: (on working with Gwyneth Paltrow) I was so glad that I did it (the film). I think it was probably one of those more satisfying films to be in. Working with Gwyneth is, I think, one of the greatest experiences because she's a spectacularly good actress.
