I am always saying, 'I don't believe in God; I believe in Al Pacino.' And that's true. If I ever get a phone call saying 'Would you like to work with Al Pacino?' I would go crazy.

I hate violence. When I hold a gun, I feel death in my hands, but it's fun to pretend in the movies.

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

My truth - what I believe - is that there are no answers here and, if you are looking for answers, you'd better choose the question carefully.

I look at myself, and I see a Spanish person who's trying to be understood by an English-speaking audience and is putting a lot of energy into that, instead of into expressing himself freely and feeling comfortable.

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

The earliest memories I have from my childhood are of my mum getting ready to go on stage. I must have been about five and I would watch her vomiting backstage on opening night, and then the next minute she became Isabella, the Queen of Spain. At the time I remember thinking, 'What kind of schizophrenic job is this?' Now it all makes sense.
