Antonio Banderas

I love my country. And I would have to renounce my Spanish citizenship to become a U.S. Citizen.

I like going everywhere. And I love starting new things.

Sometimes I have wrinkles, in the morning. It depends on what kind of night that I had. I accept myself and the way that I am growing older. I have eye bags and some people have proposed to me to take them out but I said no.

There are some movies that I would like to forget, for the rest of my life - really! But even those movies that I'd like to forget teach me things.

I've never liked watching real-life couples play couples onscreen or onstage. It takes me out of the story.

I don't think there is a guy that played more gay characters than I have done in my life.

As an actor, when you encounter a psychopathic personality, you naturally want to make him 'bigger than life,' as the Americans say.

There are some movies that I would like to forget, for the rest of my life. But even those movies teach me things.

We're living in hard times.

I mean, the Constitution of this country was written 200 years ago. The house I was living in in Madrid is 350 years old! America is still a project, and you guys are working on it and bringing new things to it every day. That is beautiful to watch.

Always when you go to a new country and they teach you bad words, you just say them without knowing the value and people look at you because you didn't know that value of them.

I think that comedy is one of the more serious things that you can do in our day, especially in the world that we're living in.
