Oh, what a shock. My career must be slipping. This is the first time I've been available to pick up an award.

I just work in order to improve myself as an actor which is what I've always done.

I was so poor for so long that I didn't use anything. I didn't drive cars, I didn't eat very much. So, I figured the world owed me a debt, so I've been eating very well and have had a very big car for a long time. But I still haven't caught up with my youth.

To me, growing old is great. It's the very best thing - considering the alternative.

I'll always be there because I'm a skilled professional actor. Whether or not I've any talent is beside the point.

I think I have the secret of a successful L.A. restaurant, especially now that so many Europeans live there. You have to have a place where they can see out the windows, see the world passing by. Europeans fancy that.

Just because I have made a point of never losing my accent it doesn't mean I'm an eel-and-pie yob.
