Author of quotes: Oleg Yankovsky



Fortunately, there were few real betrayals, and getting into a showdown over trifles is not my style. It’s easier for me to stop communicating with an unpleasant person. It's a shame to waste your life on a showdown. After all, I’m already fifty-five, I need to think not about the vain, but about the eternal. Again, there is a family behind me: grandson, granddaughter, son... This is very important to me.

My profession is to love. In the acting profession, this is the main thing - love for life, for your son, for your grandchildren, for your wife, for friends, for the audience, for the theater, for beautiful women. I can't imagine myself without love. Without Love in the highest meaning of this word it is impossible in our work.

I don't know how to play Woland. What suit should he wear? Although his attire is described in detail in the book, this is literature. And when on screen: why is he like this and not different? And, oddly enough, this is a weak role. Everything happens not with Woland, but around him, and I don’t want to just widen my eyes to make it look convincing. And the main reason: I believe that the devil, like the Lord God, cannot be played. Jesus Christ - you can, he was a real person. And you can't touch this. Not to Bulgakov's entire novel - but to Woland.
Quote Explanation: Oleg Yankovsky, after being approved for the role of Volad in the film “The Master and Margarita” by Vladimir Bortko, at the very last moment refused to participate in the filming.
