Amazing Jamie Bell quotes

Below are some of his quotes:

• I lost my mind at 15. I’d been shown a world where there were no boundaries, where everyone gave me all the power. And I was like, ‘This is great!’ Then that was gone. But I still want that.’ I’d lost my humble, very quiet, introverted sensibilities which I think I had as a kid.
• You just have to surround yourself with people who are going to support and love you before trying to sell you as a product or push you into something you don’t want to do.
• My characters are often without a parental figure.
• You don’t miss what you never had.
• Everyone is slowly catching on to this one – and I know everyone says this – but we need to make a little more effort with the environment. Everyone says they turn off their lights, but do they?
• I hate the stereotype of the pitfalls of the child actor. There are so many amazing examples – Natalie Portman, Joseph Gordon- Levitt, Jodie Foster, Drew Barrymore – of people who have made it through.
• I don’t think many people can say they’ve been the lead in a Spielberg film and still been able to live the healthy life that they had before.
