More quotes by Simon Baker
I've always been a shy person.
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.
Simon Baker
It's always difficult when you're on a show that goes for more than a year or a couple of years.
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.

Time goes a lot quicker when the work is a lot more enjoyable.
Simon Baker
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
My kids think I'm old and over the hill.
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 don't like fancy fiddly girlie stuff.
Simon Baker
French are what they are without excusing themselves to be.
Simon Baker
I'm not immune to the charms of the female form. And when I was 17 and I spent every spare minute surfing, most of the girls we hung out with would be topless.
Simon Baker
My life is pretty hectic, but I'm really into it.
Simon Baker
People talk about random acts of kindness, and that goes back to the measure of being gentlemanly again. It's about having consideration for others, and not expecting anything back. That's the difference.
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.
