I've never been enamoured by the idea of being a celebrity.

I got a bit enamoured with bigger houses and things like that.

For I am not so enamoured of my own opinions that I disregard what others may think of them.

Like all things, cities must change - even a city as enamoured of the past and memory as D.C.

When I started studying acting, I was enamoured of actors who used movement to enhance the language.

My mum bought discounted tickets for shows like 'Cats' and 'Les Miserables'; I became completely enamoured.

Once a fighter becomes enamoured with another, to the point where they can't perform and compete, you have got problems.

I had an operation on my cornea when I was little, and remember being deeply enamoured with the team who looked after me.

What matters poverty? What matters anything to him who is enamoured of our art? Does he not carry in himself every joy and every beauty?

When people talk about the '60s I never think that was me there. It was me and I was in it, but I was never enamoured with all that. It's supposed to be sex and drugs and rock and roll and I'm not really like that. I've never really seen the Rolling Stones as anything.

When you're a kid, I think you want to be a film star. And I'm not as enamoured with that any more. The reality of that life is a lot of travel, and a lot of being away, which is impractical because I have four children, so I don't want to be away that much, not the other side of the world away.

Maybe we like our politicians to appear like bumbling oafs. It certainly never did Ronald Reagan or George Bush any harm.
