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.

More quotes by 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'll make phone calls. I'll call anybody and knock on any door to try and get a location, or get an actor, or get an actress. But no, it was just very easy. We just hit the ground running.
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
This man called President Bush has a lot to answer for. I don't know if this man is really taking care of America. This government has been shameful.
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
For me, acting is doing.

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
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.

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
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
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
You need to love everyone.

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.
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
Love is a lot like dancing you just surrender to the music.
Pierce Brosnan
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.
Pierce Brosnan
I'm Irish, for gods sake. I'm a romantic.
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
I paint in oils, I paint in acrylics. I paint figurative and landscape portraits. It's all in my own kind of style. I'm self-taught.
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.
