Colin Farrell's quotes

Being Irish is very much a part of who I am. I take it everywhere with me.
[on people who drink tequila] I tell them, "When you're at home puking your guts out, I'll be here drinking my Amstel Light.".
[on appearing nude in Tigerland (2000)] I couldn't care less about who sees my bits... My friends asked how I could do scenes like that and not get excited, but it wasn't like that. My bits looked the size of a cashew nut!
[on physical training for film roles] I find it the most tedious waste of life. It's so boring. I'd prefer to be sitting in a pub with a few strangers talkin' shit than looking at meself in the mirror runnin' on the treadmill.
I'm in no hurry to get anywhere. I don't have any plans. I don't have a map. If you did in this business, you would destroy yourself. Hardship tends to unify.
I'm just a true Irish boy at heart. I'm just myself, I stick by my guns and I treat people the way I think they should be treated, regardless of their status. And I just have a laugh.
Anything I am and anything I hope to be, I have my mom to thank.
Fame was something that seemed incredibly exotic. It represented the ultimate kind of status. But it eventually became one of those 'be careful what you wish for' things.
My Dublin wasn't the Dublin of sing-songs, traditional music, sense of history and place and community. It was kind of more nouveau-riche, competition with the neighbours, a bit more privileged than the Dublin of lore.
[on scathing reviews for his performance in Alexander (2004)] That was fairly defining. I seriously thought of walking away from it all.
When I went to the Oscars for the first time I was gobsmacked and I mean I've been three times. It's huge, it's ridiculous and it's pompous and equally it's exciting and awe-inspiring. It means nothing and it means loads.
[on Ireland] The depth of our cultural complexities, our music, literature, community and the pain that we share means that I could be away from there for 50 years and I wouldn't feel any less Irish.
Desperation will allow you to do incredible things in the name of survival.
We all try and strike a balance in life, but there is an ugly balance that says the better some people do the worse others do. That's a cruel balance. It's an imbalance.
I decided, after consulting with James' mother, that I wanted to talk publicly about the pride and joy I had in our son.
[on his son James]When James took his first steps a couple weeks short of his fourth birthday, it was pretty amazing and humbling to see
