Sometimes shooting on a smaller scale, as long as things don't blow out of proportion, is very liberating.
I've got to be high class... Which is sad, because I like bars.
I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.
Now, product placement, whichever way you look at it, whether you like it or you think it's disgusting, or whatever, it's what it is.
As a kid, I kind of spent my life being amazed by being tricked. I love being tricked. I still love it today.
I don't care what other people are doing.
My family and friends treat me as they always have.
It's not like I go out there to be a sex symbol. I mean, it's nice of course - but embarrassing.
I don't care about how much other actors get.
I stopped worrying about being desired a long time ago.
I have to be myself.
Suits are looked at more now as a business thing which is kind of a shame. If you're not wearing it just for work, you should try and trick it up a bit.
The days of the misogynistic Bond are sort of over.
Although I'm not from London originally: I moved down here when I was 16, so it's played a part in my life. It's where I've lived for all that time.
I love that my friends are all freaks.
My mother gave me a real kick toward cooking, which was that if I wanted to eat, I'd better know how to do it myself.
If I wanted to make spy movies for the rest of my life, that would be one thing, but I don't want to just make spy movies.
I never really had a strong accent.

I was sick and tired of being an English actor who did a lot of American movies because I was cheap and good.
I used to think the press was a necessary evil and now I don't think it is. I think it's something you choose.
I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.
You know, I think the film business is its own worst enemy because it sells movies on DVD footage and 'behind the scenes,' and now it's a real struggle trying to keep storylines and plotlines a secret.
I just wanted to play a cowboy for a long time.
In all good westerns, the good guy is always a little bit questionable because he kind-of has to make moral judgments.
Things need shaking up politically, culturally.
I'm obsessive enough about getting fit, it's ridiculous. I'm 40 now, and I've got to stop doing it soon. I have to start getting fat and old!
I take stuff because I'm inspired by it.
I've been very lucky.
The bad reviews get to me, believe me.
