QUOTES BY Javier Bardem


I'm a great believer in stunt doubles. They do an amazing job.

Many people out there don't have a choice in choosing their friends and the people they're being manipulated by. Thank God, I have that choice. I can use my judgment and choose.

I don't believe in stereotypes. Most of the time, stereotypes are just that.

The good thing about being an actor, and the gift of being an actor, is that you are beautifully forced to see the world with different eyes.

When you are portraying somebody that has a very specific emotional weight, you feel like you're really starting to abandon your own body and go to someplace else.

The background - your own history - is way more important than what you can achieve as a professional.

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

When I was born, there was a very isolated idea of what it meant to be a man or a woman, and you belonged to one gender or the other.

I don't like to talk about my personal life.
