Viggo Quotes...

Oh dear. I laughed so hard, I was afraid I'd never stop again.
"I love driving. Just driving, driving, driving by the road. Suddenly you can think again. Like when you're wandering through hardwood forest, or in the mountains, or stand in a big, cold, mirroring lake, fishing. Then you are close to happiness; and what more can anyone want."
Driving sure takes your mind off other things. Unfortunately I don't have a drivers license. When I turned 18, I didn't have the money, and I still don't earn enough to afford it. I love being on the passengers seat though. Just sitting there, watching the landscape slide by, sometimes even without any music or sounds others than the car's very own... it's meditation.
"A couple of days ago, l looked at all the paintings, and I was like, "I don't know what these are." Then it snowballed. "What kind of actor am I anyway? What kind of father? I mean, what a joke. God, I'm such a vain, self-involved creature, and I should just stop making these things and inflicting them on people!" I can see why people jump out windows."
"Even though Tolkien was a devout Christian, the books don't assert that there is a heavenly reward for doing the right thing. Doing the right thing is it's own reward."
"I really believe that 98% of creation is accident, one percent is intellect and one percent is logic. You have to make the accidents work for you." -- Viggo to Dennis Hopper, Flaunt Magazine, April, 1999
''The general atmosphere was of controlled chaos,'' says Viggo Mortensen, who plays the haunted hero Aragorn. ''But a lot of inspired moments captured on film come from doubt and panic.'' (On what it was like on the set of Lord of the Rings)
I feel very Viggo-ish today ;)
