Personal Quotes
The entertainment business is not the be-all and end-all for me.
My attitude has always been, "Hey, wouldn't it be funny if -." If this makes me laugh
maybe somebody else will laugh at it, too. That's really where I've always come from.
My whole thing is to entertain, make people laugh and to forget about the real world
for awhile. It's not always easy doing that. I'm never completely happy with anything
I've done. If I've been successful with 80 percent of everything I've done, then I'm
doing all right by the audience and myself.I live in a high rise with my family part of the year in New York and I don't know
three quarters of the people in the building. We live in the same square-footage and
I wouldn't know who they were.Hair color: Brown; Eye color: Brown; Height: 6' 1" / 1.85cm;

Personal Quotes
People think because I can make them laugh on the stage, I'll be able to make
them laugh in person. That isn't the case at all. I am essentially a rather quiet
dull person who just happens to be a performer.
Mr. Bean is essentially a child trapped in the body of a man. All cultures identify
with children in a similar way, so he has this bizarre global outreach. And 10-year
old boys from different cultures have more in common than 30-year-olds. As we
grow up, we acquire this sensibility that divides us.I think the character does tend to suit an episodic thing, because what's fun
about him is that he doesn't care about anyone else, and it's very difficult
for a main character a lead character in a movie to not care about anybody else.Hair color: Black; Eye color: Brown; Height: 5' 11" / 1.80cm;
