I've got two young children, so holidays are not the same as they used to be. There are now two types: family holidays and holidays you need from that holiday.

I didn't go to university, and so, every time that I work, I'm looking for a teacher in a way. I'm looking for people that I can learn from and to have the chance to work with people that I admire.

I think film should raise questions, not give answers. I think film should challenge people to reflect, debate and get by themselves to the answer that fits them.

When I was growing up in the theater there were all these amazing girls telling me about the guy who broke their heart. And I was always wishing that it was me.

Every time I come to the States, I wish people would react to war like they react to tobacco, for example. Because war really kills in a second lots of people, thousands of people.

When I was really young, I used to lie a lot. Now I get paid to do it.

I hate fights. I try to talk people out of fighting if I can and if they start I run away.

I don't have this feeling like, oh, I want to live in the United States and make movies and become famous just because the money is here. I like to make movies that tell stories that I care about.

One of the major contributions of the Protestant faith to the world is the culture of dignity of labour.

Anyone who supports terrorism, anyone who sees terrorism as a legitimate means, anyone who uses terrorism to cause the death of innocent people is a terrorist in my eyes.

I read the greens in Spanish, but I putt in English.

The work of art expresses precisely those things which do not die. It must do so, however, in a form that bears witness to the artist's own era.

We must love our friend so much that she shall be associated with our purest and holiest thoughts alone.

Sometimes it’s not how much light you use to get an effect, it’s how little you use and still make it work. There are a lot of rules to be broken in photography, and you’ve got to have courage.

I went to high school in Texas for one year, my senior year. My parents wanted me to get out of Stockholm because I was running with the wrong crew. They wanted me to get back to my roots.

PURPOSE is spirit seeking expression.

We must declare war on war, so the outcome will be peace upon peace.

Conferences at the top level are always courteous. Name-calling is left to the foreign ministers.
