The best thing an actor can be is flexible, because all directors are different and all actors are different.
From Viggo Mortensen
Photography, painting or poetry - those are just extensions of me, how I perceive things; they are my way of communicating.
I'd like to, when it's all said and done, say that I have at least a few stories that I feel proud of.
'The Road' was a movie that has a good reputation, even though it wasn't released very well, but that's a movie I'm very proud of.
Like most people - unless they're very practised at it or have no warm blood at all in their veins - I feel a little apprehensive about the red carpet. It's always a bit bewildering when people are taking pictures and asking questions before the ceremony.
This basic thing I always do: 'What happened between the character's birth, and page one of the script?' Anything that's not in the story, I'll fill in the blanks.
When I heard Puerto Ricans in New York City, it sounded very strange. And the first time I heard someone from Spain, I thought they had a speech impediment!
We live as though there aren't enough hours in the day, but if we do each thing calmly and carefully we will get it done quicker and with much less stress.
You can't really go back to where you came from. I don't think any of us can.
When I was a little boy, I rode, but I didn't own horses.
