Favorites Quotes from Mr. Bean

“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.”

-Rowan Atkinson

“I mean I can do it when I’m very relaxed, and with good friends, then I think I can be amusing.”

-Rowan Atkinson

“I feel as though the camera is almost a kind of voyeur in Mr. Bean’s life, and you just watch this bizarre man going about his life in the way that he wants to.”

-Rowan Atkinson

-Rowan Atkinson
