I am the number one Ninja and I have killed all the Shoguns in front of me.

I loved ninjas when I was younger.

I'll be honest - I never saw myself making a ninja movie, never entertained the idea. I think ninja films can be quite cheesy unless you do them in feudal Japan.

There is not now, nor I suspect will there ever be, a le Carre novel with ninjas in it. Most serious novelists are wary of including ninjas in their writing. That's a shame, because many much-admired works of modern fiction could benefit from a few.

I think ninjas are probably quieter than SEALs, but we are better swimmers, and also better with guns and blowing things up.

I've never really been that much of a fan of Ninja Tune.

My secret passion is motorbikes. I want a Kawasaki Ninja.

We're horribly mundane, aggressively mundane individuals. We're the ninjas of the mundane, you might say.
