I get caught up in my bubble of reading, writing, or music.
Antonio Banderas
I have a fantastic studio in my home, and it's my biggest toy. I have about a half a million dollars worth of musical equipment in my house.

First of all, we have exactly the opposite type of audiences, for obvious reasons. So the competition is not going to be between the movies. I wish Dakota the best, not only because of this movie. I know the expectations of these movies are enormous but we know-every member of the family, brother, sister, real father-that she's a good actress.”
Antonio Banderas
As an actor, when you encounter a psychopathic personality, you naturally want to make him 'bigger than life,' as the Americans say.
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.

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
Characters don't belong to anyone, not even the person who plays them.
Antonio Banderas
The recycling in my house was imposed by my kids.
Antonio Banderas
Movies serve many purposes, and I've visited many of those genres, from the most light, frivolous comedy that is just trying to make you laugh, to movies that explore the most complicated side of the human soul. As an actor, I play all of those things, and I still like it.
Antonio Banderas
I've always been an optimistic guy, to tell you the truth.
Antonio Banderas
I always feel that art in general and acting in particular should make the audience a little uncomfortable, to slap them and wake them up.
Antonio Banderas
In my personal life, I am very contemplative.
Antonio Banderas
This girl said Yes when I wasn't ready. I kissed her lightly and got so dizzy I had to sit down.
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
When you go to the movie theater and the opening of this movie and you see the kids just cracking up with a character you are giving your voice to, you get goose bumps. It's so beautiful.
Antonio Banderas
We're living in hard times.
Antonio Banderas
I mean, the Constitution of this country was written 200 years ago. The house I was living in in Madrid is 350 years old! America is still a project, and you guys are working on it and bringing new things to it every day. That is beautiful to watch.

[Pablo] Picasso was born in my hometown, in Málaga, so I have this of strange connection with his persona and with what he did. He left Málaga, practically at the same time and age that I did.
