| Elijah Wood quotes |
| "I am not a star, a star is a burning ball of gas!" "My favorite book is probably The Hobbit and my favorite author is the author that wrote The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien." - From an interview in 1994 in Elijah's World Magazine "If I wasn't an actor, I'd be a secret agent." "This is the first time I've played a fifty-year-old!" "It's scary! It's scary..." (On how big LOTR is) "I'm a TOY! This is the coolest thing in the world!" (On being an action figure) On celebrity: "I won't change and my perspective won't change. I want to continue my life the way I live it, and I'm not going to let anything stop me from doing that. It isn't all about acting. There's a lot more to life than Hollywood." "They actually go bad, if you let them have too much air after awhile, they start smelling like urine..." (On his hobbit feet) "I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing in the world." On worrying about the high expectations of Lord of the Rings fans when he was cast as Frodo: "I definitely felt the pressure. I wanted to live up to all of the expectations. But when I got into costume and worked with the others, I just didn't think about it anymore." |
