Moore, Sir Roger Moore... (lemmy.ml)

Sir Roger Moore quotes of note.

Today I am completely opposed to small arms and what they can do to children. I played every role tongue-in-cheek because I don't really believe in that sort of hero. I don't like guns.

To me, the Bond situations are so ridiculous, so outrageous. I mean, this man is supposed to be a spy and yet, everybody knows he's a spy. Every bartender in the world offers him martinis that are shaken, not stirred. What kind of serious spy is recognized everywhere he goes? It's outrageous. So you have to treat the humor outrageously as well. My personality is entirely different than previous Bonds. I'm not that cold-blooded killer type. Which is why I play it mostly for laughs.

My acting range? Left eyebrow raised, right eyebrow raised.

They call him a spy but when does he ever actually go undercover? Or is the one to gather information himself?

Well there's the one where they tape Sean Connerys eyes slanted so he looks Asian (he doesn't).

That's pretty undercover.

Spy in the loose sense. I would probably categorize him as an assassin first, with a side of spying.
