If The Da Vinci Code (2006) had been filming in a place where it rains a lot, I probably wouldn`t have done it. Quite low down in the list is "How much am I going to be paid?" I`d say I was quite cheap, but my main feeling about money is that I don`t want to feel as though I`m being taken advantage of. Certainly, I`m cheaper than Anthony Hopkins. The other actors they asked to play Gandalf wouldn`t go to New Zealand on that money for that length of time. I thought it would be a bit of an adventure. Tony Hopkins didn`t think it would be an adventure. Tony is part of Hollywood. I`m an eccentric English actor, and there`s a lot of us around.

- James Mason(on Claude Rains) My favorite person to work with was Claude Rains.
- Bette DavisGod looked down on this country because this country was founded on the rock and that rock was our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And when the storms came and the rains came, the rock, it did not move. But over the last 15 or 20 years, something began to erode.
- Bob RileyIt was a struggle treating Claude Rains as my lover, but we were friendly. It was no great love affair.
- Gloria StuartClaude Rains was what we call an actor`s actor. He was very involved with himself and his performance.
- Gloria StuartI have a weird life because I live on songwriting royalties, which are a strange income. Sometimes it rains, sometimes it doesn`t.
- Joe StrummerI feel sorry for short people, you know. When it rains, they`re the last to know.
- Rodney Dangerfield(on Claude Rains) He was a great influence on me. I don`t know what happened to him. I think he failed and went to America.
- John Gielgud(During an interview on US television the interviewer asked who had inspired him) It was during my time at RADA, there was a man who inspired us all. Claude Rains. I don`t know what happened to him, I think he failed and went to America.
- John GielgudRains like these can`t erase overnight what two years of La Niña and long-term drought helped to produce. These are major precipitation deficits,
- Jack KellyThe need for urgency in resolving this issue should be apparent, ... A number of neighbors have septic systems that are constantly malfunctioning due to heavy rains, roots systems and deteriorating drain fields.

- Gary PriceAfter about one hour of rain, the drainage ditch in the front of the house is so full it is halfway up the front yard. The backyard looks like a lake. We are on septic and every time it rains, you cannot use the bathroom facilities, and the smell of septic is very strong.

- Alex LenahanWhen it rains, it pours - figuratively and literally.
- Alisa GravitzIt looks like the system doesn`t have quite the dynamic with the heavy rains that we had in the past event.
- Anne MorrisonIt`s really too early to pinpoint where the heaviest rains will form, but the overall weather pattern is looking quite similar to what we saw last week.
- Anne MorrisonWe expressed to them our concern of the ability to house people if it rains and whether there were enough safeguards for some of the bands with their electrical equipment outside.
- Annetjie PretoriusWhat we are really concerned about is the storm surge and tremendous rains,
