Some people have a tendency to get knocked down in this business and sulk and whine, and they just create a rod for their back, really. You have to have broad shoulders and get through it.

More quotes by Pierce Brosnan
Acting allows me to explore new worlds, to discover characters by delving into their lives, and ultimately to become someone else entirely.
Pierce Brosnan
I had to make a living. I had the mortgage to pay, I had the school fees to pay. I had bread and butter to put on the table. You know your worth as an actor, but you have to get a job.
Pierce Brosnan
Together we are stronger, our voices louder, and the synergy of our actions more powerful. Together we can prevail on the Navy to put commonsense safeguards in place, like requiring its ships to avoid the most sensitive marine mammal habitats and to stop their training exercises during peak migrations.
Pierce Brosnan
America gave me the great glory of coming into people's homes every week and allowed me to last as long as I have.
Pierce Brosnan
It will be very hard to get out of Bond. It will be the pictures I do between Bonds that will color my career, that will give my career longevity after this franchise is over ... I will be stamped with this character for life.
Pierce Brosnan
I think you make the best with what you've got, you know? Sometimes you have very little. And you just always try to rise to higher ground, because you're going to suffer one way or the other, so you just hope that you have strength and perseverance and good friends and faith, some kind of faith, to endure and move on to greener pastures.
Pierce Brosnan
Being here by the ocean in Malibu. Living in this beautiful house that we built, that took so long to build. Being in my art studio, painting. Packing my bags tomorrow to go home to Kauai where we have a house. Which all sounds very grand, and I suppose it is, in some respects, but nothing comes from nothing. It all comes from hard work.
Pierce Brosnan
America, which leads the world in so many ways, can end childhood hunger within its borders.
Pierce Brosnan
From '86 until the summer of last year, wherever I went, people would say, You would have made a great James Bond! Weren't you going to be James Bond? You should have been, you could have been, you may have been. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. It was like unfinished business in my life. I couldn't say no to it this time around.
Pierce Brosnan
Maybe sometimes the best things are worth waiting for possibly.
Pierce Brosnan
You need to love everyone.
Pierce Brosnan
It never felt real to me. I never felt I had complete ownership over Bond. Because you'd have these stupid one-liners - which I loathed - and I always felt phony doing them.
Pierce Brosnan
I lost track of it thereafter. I wish I had a piece of it. That would have been very, very nice. It was one of those little things they get you on the Bond and then suddenly your face is every which way.
Pierce Brosnan
The violence and sexuality on TV today is exhilarating. You can explore every aspect of society. People's sexual orientations, the violence that goes within that... there are no holds barred.
Pierce Brosnan
I had to have some balls to be Irish Catholic in South London. Most of that time I spent fighting.
Pierce Brosnan
Regret, is usually a waste of time. As is gloating
Pierce Brosnan
The Bond was so big and mighty in my career, and it is the gift that just keeps giving. I wouldn't be here today talking about The November Man if it hadn't been for James Bond. So, there was a desire, a want, and a need to make this film, The November Man. I loved the title. It has a sensuality and a mystique to it.
Pierce Brosnan
I believe you can only draw from your own life as an actor. All the characters I've played, I only have my infinite eye and the presence of my life to take from.
Pierce Brosnan
Being with my wife and children in Kauai, seeing old friends there, being on the beach, painting, paddleboarding. Sitting under a Kauai moon with a bonfire going, buddies around. Those are the things that kind of make my world turn.
Pierce Brosnan
It felt after the Bonds, after my four outings as James Bond, there seemed to be unfinished business. And the way that the Bond finished in my life and the demise of Bond going off stage left into the night, it seemed like there was a certain void there, as they say, of unfinished business.
