— Pierce Brosnan
There's always been product placement in Bond movies.
I thought 'Moulin Rouge' was inspirational, and 'Jesus Christ Superstar' I loved.
God has been good to me. My faith has been good to me in the moments of deepest suffering, doubt and fear.
People should be allowed to marry, and gay marriage should be out there. If a man or a woman has a good partner and they love each other with their heart and soul, let them marry. I am very much for gay marriage.
I left school at 15 feeling fairly useless and not really up to scratch in my education. And I still suffer sometimes from that lack of education.
I just find that you can become a very boring person living in L.A. I tell you, living there on a day-to-day basis is vacuous: terribly fake.

Acting for the Indian audience is surely on my bucket list; it may take some time, though.
I love George Clooney; I think George is brilliant.
I always see myself as a character actor, but Remington Steele was me. I gave up on trying to be any character. I just put myself as me in this world of Remington Steele and the grand pretender.
Being a widower is not that groovy when you lose someone you really love, and you have to go out and date again.
I went to a Radiohead concert with Mr. Aaron Paul and became instantly hip. He's a great tweeter and took a photograph of the two of us. He said, 'Man, look at this! We've already got 800 hits in five minutes!' So this old dog became hip.
I've had my face sliced open one day. Stunt man went one way, and I went the same way and had a few stitches.
I'm a journeyman actor.
This man called President Bush has a lot to answer for. I don't know if this man is really taking care of America. This government has been shameful.
Dark comedy is very difficult. You have to bring the audience in and push them away at the same time.
I love New York City. The energy, the theatre, the art, the food, the people, the parks and streets. But I could say the same of London or Paris, too.
I have some wonderful suits in my closet, a lovely car, some refined watches.
When I went to America, I spoke so much about who I was and gave so much away in a confessional, Irish, story-telling way that I suddenly realised I had given up a lot of myself. I had to shut up.
It always helps to have a bit of prayer in your back pocket. At the end of the day, you have to have something, and for me, that is God, Jesus, my Catholic upbringing, my faith.
I've been a married man most of my life; that's the way I like it.
I've been identified with James Bond or Thomas Crown for so long; suave, elegant, sophisticated men in suits. it's like you've been giving the same performance for 20 years.
The word 'star' doesn't mean an awful lot to me. 'Good actor' and having the respect of one's peers means more.
I'd my own insecurities while portraying the role of James Bond.
If you want to do a female version of 'The Expendables,' I'll be in that one.
You always bump into politics in life, and as a man, I'm party to a number of environmental issues that concern me first and foremost, as a man, as a father.
When I got the invitation to be part of 'The Ghost' or 'The Ghost Writer,' as it's now known, from Mr. Roman Polanski, my interest level was very piqued. I was very excited and pleased to get such an offer from Mr. Roman Polanski.
When you go through a long illness, certainly one of cancer, there's a certain release from it and relief that it has come to an end, because the suffering can be unbearable, as opposed to an abrupt stop to life when they go out the door and there's a loved one who never comes home because of some accident.
I'm not a politician or political animal.
He's a fantastic actor, Kelsey Grammer. You don't have that kind of career without having a talent, without having something to say and to give to an audience.
Someone like Roman Polanski comes with a lifetime of achievement, cinematically.
That's it. I've said all I've got to say on the world of James Bond.
When people don't believe in you, you have to believe in yourself.
I visit London several times a year. It is my home away from home.
The life of an actor lends itself to emotion, and yet you have to be tough as old boots to stay at the table.
Intrinsically, I'm the same person I was as a young lad, and I think I still have the optimism of life, still the same wants and desires to be good and great about what I do.
You want to believe in leaders, really believe in leaders. You want what they are saying to be truthful, and you want to trust them.
I was aware that I was not getting the good acting roles because I was either too handsome, too pretty or whatever. I was being judged in ways that left me nowhere to go. You have to be patient.
There are a lot of funny things that happen in one's life.
With such riches as I have in life, you're always nervous. Being Irish, you're waiting for something to knock it sideways.
Indian cinema is entertaining, and what I love most about it is the songs and dances in the films.
James Bond is one of those heroes that all guys feel they could actually be like.
I know something about life and being a father and the worries and the fears of bringing up children.
I am the actor that I am. I do what I do. I've been a 'leading man' playing romantic leads for a long time now.
Certain projects find you at the right time.
Dealing with death is there forever, really, you know, because we all have to face it.
I have no desire to look at myself.
We owe it to our children to be better stewards of the environment. The alternative? - a world without whales. It's too terrible to imagine.
It never felt real to me. I never felt I had complete ownership over Bond. Because you'd have these stupid one-liners - which I loathed - and I always felt phony doing them.
