I admit I'm being paid well, but it's no more than I deserve. After all, I've been screwed more times than a hooker.

I hope to work, support my children and die quietly without pain.

[James Bond's qualities of] self-containment, his powers of decision, his ability to carry on through till the end and to survive ... I like to think I acquired them before Bond.

I care about Bond and what happens to him. You cannot be connected with a character for this long and not have an interest. All the Bond films had their good points.

I did many other things before I ever got into the movies. I've been in so many businesses, it's a joke. All of them totally unsuited to me. Selling used cars. Running a club in London.

My boy, we are pilgrims in an unholy land.

I can't afford to slow down, but I suppose it really depends. As long as there's enough enthusiasm, then one wants to continue.
