I think that my biggest role models are people that have maybe struggled for a while and then finally gotten to their destination.

I am the farthest thing from a computer genius.

I attended a very small junior high and specially in the end that became a disaster. The principal was pretty senile and a drunk, so the children more or less runned the school.

I would like to direct in the future, but I am in no hurry with that.

However, I hope I am also judged on my accomplishments as an actor and not just on my pretty face!

I don't like being told someone's interpretation of something that I do.

I do remember that I was sitting in the make-up chair before the shoots for a commercial or film or other, and I thought: Sometime soon they are going to make a close-up of me and millions of people can see how many pimples I've got on my cheeks.

I think it's all about how much you love, understand and can relate to the material you are given.

I do look forward to doing things in the future that I haven't done before. Do you know what I have always dreamt about? Playing a serial killer!

My mother is my manager and so knows exactly what I do and so on.

And sometimes I sit down to write, because that is what I like to do more and more in the future.

Because the series is situated in the next century, and for the most part under water, there are many innovative technical gadgets. It's a kind of StarTrek. When I first came there, I was really impressed myself.

It's of course understandable that people want to know about actors in their favourite series.

I think that my biggest role models are people that have maybe struggled for a while and then finally gotten to their destination.

I mean, I try to say the right things and give the right advice. But still, I'm only a person.

Allthough that doesn't happen often lately, I like to read exciting thrillers and those kinky magazines.

Roy Schneider was cool. I learned quite a bit from him.

As an actor you have one great fear: pimples!

Furthermore I will just have to see what the future will bring me. But a change of food whets the appetite.

One time I can stand fiddling in front of the mirror for an hour and another time I think: well hack, this is just the best it can get. Only if I have to go to work I really try to look fantastic.

I like strong girls, as long as they don't get snappish. And furthermore I think it important that you are good buddies and she does not get angry when you don't have your day.

When you're young, you should live out every weekend. Even if you look like a scarecrow, you just gotta go!

I want to be remembered as an actor who put in some good work in the beginning of his career, even better work at the end of his career and slowly, successfully made the transition into writing and directing.

I want to direct, I want to be part of something creative, something with quality.

My biggest fear as an actor is being involved in something mediocre, or being mediocre myself.

My friends would probably describe me as silly. And honest. And that I think about things a bit too much.

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

Young people discovering their sexuality must know they walk with a strong tradition and that they are not alone. They have a right to information without being pressured.

Many are needed to plant and water what has been planted now that the faith has spread so far and there are so many people... No matter who plants or waters, God gives no harvest unless what is planted is the faith of Peter and unless he agrees to his teachings.

DJs and people in the street know what they like.

People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile.

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera.

We dominated Survivor - there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That's the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

We must support initiatives that provide clear, concrete measures and milestones that our troops need for defeating the insurgency, building up Iraqi security forces, and handing over Iraq to the Iraqi people.

Yeah, that's what kind of, we get the idea a little bit yeah, because other people from different countries also try as hard as they can to get a medal or a gold medal in the Olympic Games. And you know, if they can work hard, we can work hard as well.

Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it's a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don't like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.

My goal is, of course, for this show to do well, and I would love it if people liked it.

I hate wasting people's time.

Religions get lost as people do.

I also do not like the idea of soft money, these issue ads - people don't know where the money is coming from, millions and millions of dollars outside of the control of a candidate - there's no accountability.

The people of England are the most enthusiastic in the world.

The avantgarde are people who don't exactly know where they want to go, but are the first to get there.

My theory is if you have a religion, it's a good one. Because some people don't have any at all.

It's sometimes shocking to find out what people really believe in.

That's Tommy, this great producer who comes in contact with people and must have a mental library of personnel who are great for this and great for that, and he brought this whole group of musicians to the project that I'd never worked with before.

Rock and rollers can get you the youth buzz, and younger people are fanatical readers.

Sitting at home the way I do, I'd just love the hear from people. It'd be a great help in passing the time.

I guess I strike people as very serious, or very intense.
