Bellamy Young Quotes

Things aren't black and white in the world.

In a perfect world everything would be either black or white, right or wrong, and everyone would know the difference. But this isn't a perfect world. The problem is people who think it is.

Nothing is ever cut-and-dried. There's anguish behind everything.

We are all somewhere or the other a little grey, not black and white. We have our imperfections.

I personally feel that no human is a hero or a villain. All of us have our grey sides, and that is why grey interests me: because it's more human, more life-like.

Nothing is black or white.

We want to live in the black and white, but we don't. The world is gray. And, I'm always fascinated by people who are clearly, 'This is black and this is white, and that's the way life is.' Life always has something to say about that.

The old world was good guys and bad guys. The new world is gray guys.

There are gray areas in everything.

It's very true that you can be both selfless and selfish at the same time. What we tend towards, particularly in filmmaking, is this binary sort of, 'This is a good guy, this is a bad guy.' And I quite like the fact that life is a bit more complex than that.

I'm always interested in what we're not being shown. So if you're playing ostensibly a quote-unquote 'baddie,' what are their good sides, and vice versa.

It's really rare in life that a situation is as black and white as we tend to paint it.

It's very human to try to put things into boxes, and it's hard for us to reconcile with grey areas, and yet somehow, that's the area I find the most poetic, the juiciest.

The most interesting thing about being alive is that there is no black and white; there are many shades of gray.
