I was raised not to be afraid to show emotion or imagination.

But I remember the moment when my father died. I wasn't a very committed Catholic beforehand, but when that happened it suddenly all felt so obvious: I now believe religion is our attempt to find an explanation, for us to feel more protected.

I can't imagine what it would be like being James Bond 24 hours. That must be exhausting.

I'm not the kind of actor that gets crazy with [directors'] names, what draws me toward a project is the material itself.

Even in the darkest regions, people have discovered their right of freedom.

I've played people that are on the line of evil and good, but that's life. We are always playing with the good and the bad. I see them as people. I don't see them as caricatures. I try to not make them caricatures. Maybe I fail, but I try to see what' behind them. Would I play the hero? A superhero? I don't think so. But, I play good guys. There are some there, but you have to look.

I used to be a good party boy. I'm old. I'm an old man. You pay the consequences. I'm just fine with a couple of drinks, no more than that.
