    The greatest living actor and a kind, compassionate man who goes out of his way to help alcoholics, the poor and the dispossessed.

      I hope he comes my way then! Haven't had a knock at my door. I'm still - God help me - unscrewing the lid.

    I love listening to Anthony Hopkins. Such a kind and humble man. He was not dumb as a child, he was a genius. He is a Dyslexic Thinker. Dyslexic Thinking is in LinkedIn Business and the Dictionary as a Valid SKILL. Look how intelligent he is. Tony Acts, plays the Piano, Paints and has a positive outlook on life. His voice is like Therapy.
    Personally, my daughter and I do not like labels. A lot of Creative people struggle in school. They are not the problem. The Bullying Academic Elites are. He sure showed them. Bravo Tony!
    I hope Anothony Hopkins gets a written apology from our British Education System for not recognising his talents. Same for every other child they fail. 9 Million Adults are illiterate in the UK. So this proves Education needs to change. Education needs the Arts to make reading fun. And we need a Kindness Qualification in Education and Government Services. Then we will see change. And less brilliant people made to feel dumb.
    I know a lot of kind Academics. But boy do we have a problem with bullying Elite Academics in the UK and overseas. This needs to be nipped in the bud. ♥️ We need a equal playing field as actor Michael Sheen states. The working class need to be heard!

    “But what has happened in some strange, circuitous way on this journey through life is that I’ve become more at peace with myself. I suppose we compensate for our lives, for our lacks, if we choose to. Because I felt so lacking as a child, and my adolescent years, and early adult years. I - through anger, resentment, or drive, or ambition, whatever - I found my way somehow. I don’t actually believe I did it totally on my own, I believe it’s some power of life that is in us. I’m a fatalist, I believe in destiny, I believe that if we relax and let go enough and actually do believe that our lives are none of our business and open up then extraordinary things begin to happen.”
    Wise words

    God that's strange--Richard Harris was also dyslexic and they both went on to be two of the three greatest actors in the world. How did they learn all those lines for those Shakespeare plays that go on for hours? Maybe being dyslexic put them in touch with direct reality in a way normality doesn't. Or maybe it made them want to excel at the spoken word cause they had such trouble with reading. that's all very surprising to me.

    Sir Anthony has fame and fortune. His talent has won him 2 Oscars for Best Actor, but he has certain disadvantages...what disadvantages?...Like Edward Norton said...He's crazy!..just kidding..I like his attitude about how he feels a certain way, but that it's ok. This is true.

  • @hunterluxton5976

    He was lucky, that's it. He has a splendid voice and a oozes charisma, which is what the camera loves. Then comes wealth fame and adulation. He could not believe his luck. It's luck Tony, nothing mystical.

      Anthony Hopkins was a heavy drinker as a young man and even later.He confessed drinking when he acted and during the shootings..he is great anyway and i like his British refined style and his accent.And he was fine as a man till his fifties...lol! Even if i guess a short tempered man..He seems to be calm but i think that he had to lose control of himself more than once.

      Tony since joining AA has become so calm, a great and very good man.
