Acting allows me to explore new worlds, to discover characters by delving into their lives, and ultimately to become someone else entirely.

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.

You're always going to have to prove yourself, because acting is such a capricious game.

You can get totally messed up trying to please everyone with what you do, but ultimately, you have to please yourself.

Being a widower is not that groovy when you lose someone you really love, and you have to go out and date again.

I will forever be a Bond. It's a small group of men who've made this role. Someone said, More men have walked on the moon than have played James Bond.'
