I retired from rugby because I was old and getting really slow.

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 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.

I've always said that playing rugby in Spain is like being a bullfighter in Japan.

I enjoy my job as long as I can create a character, otherwise it's boring.

There is no middle ground in Hollywood; you're a failure or you're a success. That mentality is wild.

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