More quotes by Pierce Brosnan
When I found acting, it was my saving grace - still is. That I get paid to do it is remarkable. That I get to meet people like Salma Hayek - one of the most beautiful women I know, with the most magnificent energy - is phenomenal.
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
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.

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.

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 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
You need to love everyone.
Pierce Brosnan
I'm Irish, for gods sake. I'm a romantic.
Pierce Brosnan
I had big dreams when I was a boy. And I can't say that I never saw a beach house in Malibu in those dreams.
Pierce Brosnan
My mother was the prettiest woman in the town. He was a bit older than her. They made me. And he split.
Pierce Brosnan
Love means that everything is right with the world. Love and only love. Love means that you are content within your own heart and in the presence of the person that you love, who fills your day and makes you stronger and wiser, and gives you the confidence to go out into the world. Love is just the most beautiful, joyous feeling.
Pierce Brosnan
Sometimes you take time off, and then you look around and you go, Hello. What happened? Oh dear!
Pierce Brosnan
I love movies. I adore movies. I grew up on Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood and Warren Beatty. The list goes on. Spencer Tracy. I wanted to be in movies.
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 like factor is a great thing. Love cannot burn constantly. It's very hard for it to be so intense. But it's wonderful.
Pierce Brosnan
Regret, is usually a waste of time. As is gloating
Pierce Brosnan
Oh, humiliation is poisonous. Its one of the deepest pains of being human.

The White Palace was pretty impressive. Very impressive, in fact. The day to day running of the set was everybody showed up for work. They are seasoned filmmakers over there. They have an infrastructure for filmmaking, which is very healthy. It's small, but they were tenacious, polite, timely.
Pierce Brosnan
Many people think that hunger is unavoidable in any society, even a society that is blessed with great abundance. That is not true. The European community does not have widespread hunger. America, which leads the world in so many ways, can end childhood hunger within its borders.
