More quotes by Antonio Banderas
I don't think there is a guy that played more gay characters than I have done in my life.
Antonio Banderas
I remember in Law of Desire, where I played a homosexual, that people were more upset that I kissed a man on the mouth than I killed a man. It's interesting to see how people can pardon you for murdering a man, but they can't pardon you for kissing one.
Antonio Banderas
I like going everywhere. And I love starting new things.
Antonio Banderas
I don't know, if I had the secret recipe that I actually could give everybody, I think it has to do very much with believing in yourself and giving time. Giving time to each member of the family.
Antonio Banderas
Hollywood is a very strong machine that needs, and in... especially with female actors, fresh flesh. It's that cruel. But that's the way it is.
Antonio Banderas
Whatever happens in my life from now on, I know the day I finally die - the final act of my script - people will always make references to the work I’ve done with Almodóvar.
Antonio Banderas
The recycling in my house was imposed by my kids.
Antonio Banderas

Antonio Banderas
People are not patient anymore.
Antonio Banderas

Antonio Banderas
I love the diversity of America. I love the plain, normal sense of humor Americans have. It is not wicked, like in some countries. And I also love how new America is.
Antonio Banderas
I think we are realising that governments can't govern us any more.
Antonio Banderas
I wake up every morning, look in the mirror and ask, 'Am I a sex symbol?' Then I go back to bed again. It's stupid to think that way.
Antonio Banderas
I had an idea and I wanted just to make it work. And I am never, ever secure on the set that what I am doing is going to translate to the screen. It never changes.
Antonio Banderas
Im now projecting my career in a totally different direction. I am going to work less-way less. And I want to work better. I want to direct again, I want to do more theatre, and I want to do exactly those movies that I want to do.
Antonio Banderas
As much as you know it, and you know the method, you can pretty much do what you want. No idea is going to be shot down. You just put it in the garbage later. You have to say the lines in many different ways. So they have a lot of material to work.
Antonio Banderas
I'm in my 60s now, and just running almost 50 meters with explosives going on, it was kind of like, Oh, my god! What am I doing here?
Antonio Banderas
In my personal life, I am very contemplative.
Antonio Banderas
I've never liked watching real-life couples play couples onscreen or onstage. It takes me out of the story.
Antonio Banderas
