More quotes by Simon Baker
I grew up surfing on the north coast of New South Wales, and on most of the beaches, women never wore tops. When we were 10 or 11, me and my mates couldn't drive, so they'd take us surfing and then sit on the beach topless and read a book. I don't know if I quite saw them sexually, but there was physical intrigue.

There's more of a family connection when you're working on a TV show. That's not to say that you don't make great connections when you're working on films, but it's different unless you're there working every day.

Well, capitalism is going to grow and grow. The nature of it is that the guy who has the most poker chips on the table has more leverage than everyone else. He can eventually outbluff everyone else and outraise everyone else at the table. That's what has happened and it needs to be corrected.

I'm a big fan of Alan J. Pakula's films like 'All the President's Men', 'The Parallax View,' and 'Klute.' I'm a big fan of those movies.
Simon Baker
I would love to do a rom-com, but they are not good - good and successful doesn't equate to the same thing.
Simon Baker
I didn't grow up with money, but I grew up with a lot of space. All I did was surf. I was committed to the ocean. That's one thing about Australians we have the capacity to embrace life.
Simon Baker
I think my kids are pretty well-rounded citizens of the world.
Simon Baker
I need some challenges in love or I'm bored.
Simon Baker
When I have to play the same role every day, I have the flexibility to play the character in so many different ways. It's almost like playing five different roles.
Simon Baker
I was probably not the first to lose my virginity among my friends. I was definitely one of the last ones to reach puberty - I didn't grow until the last couple years of high school.
Simon Baker
It's always difficult when you're on a show that goes for more than a year or a couple of years.
