I'm not afraid of death, but I resent it. I think it's unfair and irritating.
From Viggo Mortensen
When I have a day off, I won't spend it at a Hollywood party. I'd rather be at home with paints and a blank canvas.
I have a multicultural background, so I tend to have an open mind about things, and I find other cultures interesting.
As a kid I read Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, and a few others. As an adult have admired Leonardo da Vinci's drawings and notebooks.
I think every family is dysfunctional, and some manage to control it better than others.
I'm not that involved in personal grooming. But I try not to be offensive to people.
I realise how important it is to use the time I have. I respect people who want to do that by watching television. I happen to want to read books. But I know I can't read all the books or watch all the movies in one lifetime.
Some people who like dogs don't like cats, but I'm not like that.
I don't have a BlackBerry or whatever you call it. And there is something to be said for being isolated and out of phone range, because you can fall into a habit to such a degree that you don't even realise that you've lost something: silence.
I think that people who get to a certain position, and then try to ferociously defend it or build on it, it's kind of a dead-end street. You see people becoming miserable that way.
