Shakespeare has way too many lines. My ideal theatre piece is about 40 minutes long with no interval.

I find it very easy playing Bond. I think he's hilarious. He gets himself into some extraordinarily funny situations.

I think finding the right person and being with the right person is probably the answer to most things.

When you read a novel, your own imagery is the most important. It's what makes reading such a wonderful thing.

I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.

You get used to the rejection and you don't take it personally.

I've never really had a desire to do Shakespeare. For me, it's just too many lines.

I stopped worrying about being desired a long time ago.

I love vodka martinis. I know it's a cliché.

I don't say: 'can't do that', 'won't do that'. I've never thought in that way about work.

You need to impress me, outwit me, compete with me? Go ahead, knock yourself out, I have no problem with that at all.

We are a society of notoriously unhappy people: lonely, anxious, depressed, destructive, dependent — people who are glad when we have killed the time we are trying so hard to save.

Purposefully spend time to better yourself

Do not hide behind any mask

We don't have time for such uncertainty because it reliably breeds indecision, and indecision is one of the mothers of failure.

You are your own devil, you are your own God, You fashioned the paths that your footsteps have trod, And no one can save you from error or sin, Until you shall hark to the Spirit within.

I need people who look at adversity as a challenge and failure as a learning opportunity.

In my opinion, the most significant works of the twentieth century are those that rise beyond the conceptual tyranny of genre; they are, at the same time, poetry, criticism, narrative, drama, etc.

I don't have any politics. I feel that as soon as politics arises, things are already in a hopeless state of deterioration.
