Quote by Matthew Macfadyen
I was quite a shy child. I would get terribly nervous and throw up

I was quite a shy child. I would get terribly nervous and throw up before my birthday party. And then I would be fine. I feel the same now. I get nervous, then its fine. – Matthew Macfadyen

Other quotes by Matthew Macfadyen

The security comes, as an actor, in knowing that youre not in control. If you try to control your career, or how people perceive you, youll make yourself unhappy, because life doesnt work like that. So much is luck. Its much better to let yourself off, to think, Theres nothing I can do. – Matthew Macfadyen
