I don't understand if you get caught in a fight, but take it out on a room, how that implies some psychiatric disorder.
Sean Connery

I don't think there is anything particularly wrong in hitting a woman, though I don't recommend you do it the same way that you hit a man.

Image
I'm fed up with the idiots... the ever-widening gap between people who know how to make movies and the people who green-light the movies.

After I began to make some money, my brain-damaged accountant put me in one business after another that went bad. The only one that panned out was a small bank, an old Scottish firm with London offices in Pall Mall. I was a director. We sold out to a larger bank. That was the only successful venture I've had, apart from acting.

The Irish seem to have more fire about them than the Scots.
Sean Connery
Image
I find if I just sit down and think, a solution presents itself.
Sean Connery
Image
I can't afford to slow down, but I suppose it really depends. As long as there's enough enthusiasm, then one wants to continue.
Sean Connery
Image
The knighthood I received was a fantastic honour but it's not something I've ever used and I don't think I ever will.
Sean Connery
Image
There are women who take it to the wire. That's what they are looking for, the ultimate confrontation. They want a smack.
Sean Connery

My boy, we are pilgrims in an unholy land.
Sean Connery
Image
But as a Scot with a lifelong love of Scotland and the arts, I believe the opportunity of independence is too good to miss. Simply put there is no more creative an act than creating a new nation.
Sean Connery
Image
The terrible beauty is that in the brotherhood of golf we are all the same - certifiable.

If anything could have pulled me out of retirement it would have been an Indiana Jones film.

There's a lot of fantasy about what Scotland is, and the shortbread tins and that sort of thing.
