I'll tell you something that's completely true - you can, as a man, obtain everything you want with the truth. If you lie, first of all you've got to be a very good lying actor, which is tres difficile. And it's going to give you poison inside the body.

I'm a minimalist. I don't really need much to enjoy a good holiday - just my family and the bare essentials.

There is no heaven on Earth. Not now anyway.

I don't get the romances. I did try - a film called 'Roseanna's Grave' in the 1990s. I liked it. But the audience didn't come.

At home I keep things simple with fish, pasta and soups and am often preparing stuff for the family.

Being proud and being nationalistic are, for me, completely different things.

No women no kids - that's the rules.
