More quotes by Simon Baker
I think my kids are pretty well-rounded citizens of the world.
Simon Baker
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.
Simon Baker
Every TV show is a crapshoot, really. But every once in a while, a show gets anointed as 'the show.'
Simon Baker
L.A.'s a better place to live than it is to visit.
Simon Baker
I cut my own hair most of the time. You just do it all by feel.
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
A shot is only as every as good as how well it tells the story.

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
I've always been a shy person.
Simon Baker
I try to be straightforward and honest with my kids, and I believe nothing beats good old hard work.
Simon Baker
My life is pretty hectic, but I'm really into it.
Simon Baker
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.
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
I am very straight-forward and direct. If I disagree with something, I say something about it.
Simon Baker
I think this Occupy Wall Street thing is great. I think that is a good thing and that people need to stand up, voice their opinions, and be heard.
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
I do like comic book movies, but only the ones that I read as a kid.
Simon Baker
I was a pretty confident kid, even if it was all false bravado.
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.
