"I don't want anything I don't deserve, (but) if they offer me more money, I'm not stupid." "This lust for beauty is a terrible thing. I've forbidden her from ever going to a cosmetic surgeon again. It is something we have agreed to for the sake of our marriage" [on his wife, Melanie Griffith, having more plastic surgery]. "If they had offered me James Bond, I probably couldn't have gone to England anymore in my life. James Bond with an accent? That would have been something." "I hate that cat ["Puss in Boots" from Shrek 2]. Ever since he appeared in my life he's more important than me. Now women always say, 'Oh, I love that cat. He's so cute'. Before, it was, 'I loved you in Zorro'. And sometimes you think is she saying that because she has some other . . . intention? But no. They love the cat, and they hate me". To be married in our profession is not an easy thing. There's too many beautiful people around, very interesting people. It's just a matter of really having-being patient and probably having the capacity and the faith of falling in love with your own wife again. That happens to me. Melanie is more of a disciplinarian with the little girl than me, probably because it's my first baby. She gets everything easy from Papa. I am more weak. She takes advantage of me. I admired Melanie before I loved her. "I get more attention as the pussycat in 'Shrek 3' than I ever did as Zorro." I don't believe in careers, I just picture myself always as one of those old actors from the 19th century who go from village to village in their repertoire. When you see actors on the red carpet they seem to know each other but really it's like a wax museum. Los Angeles is probably one of the fakest cities in the world. For me it is a working place.
