Rupert Graves quotes

Rupert Graves

Rupert Graves
I don't plan. I don't think, 'I have to do this kind of part 'cause I've done that kind of part.' I'm not a very good planner.
Rupert Graves
I drifted into acting, and I've drifted into my career, and I've never been guided by anything particularly concrete.
