More quotes by Matt Damon
Bond is part of the system. He's an imperialist and a misogynist, and he laughs at killing people, and he sits there slugging martinis.

If anybody wanted to photograph my life, they'd get bored in a day.

My mother is a professor of early childhood education. When I was two she would say she knew I was going to be an actor.
Matt Damon
Before the days of video village a director should stand right next to the camera, look with his naked eye and if he sees something that is real to him, he'd look up at the [camera] operator and if he gives the look to indicate he'd seen it to, then you print and you'd move on.

Generally, the bigger the budget, the less interesting the characters become.
