| "I like honesty, and people that are real, who don't buy into all that bad stuff ( like drugs ), but who are really themselves. Its sad because a lot of kids these days feel that they have to be a certain way in order to be popular. I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing in the world." -Do you believe in true love- "Of course I do. I wouldn't be a hopeless romantic if I didn't. I'm a sucker for romantic films. I cry like a child. For people who are hopeless romantics, 'Love Jones' is a wonderful film. Of course so is 'When Harry Met Sally', everyone sheds a tear." "I bite my fingernails. When you bite your fingernails and smoke at the same time, you know you've got issues.'' "The whole anit-MP3 thing pisses me off and especially Lars Ulrich. People had the opportunity to listen to bands they'd never heard before. It was doing more good than harm but people with greed for money were trying to stop a revolution. I don't like his attitude." "Yeah you know, Selma Hayek, I've worked with her, Brooke Sheilds, I've worked with her, I have their phone numbers...and you're going to hate me because I don't call them." "Marriage is way for away from me.Oh yes, oh God yes, almost definitely. Marriage is so far off, I gotta have a lot of life to live, I've gotta have a lot of things to do. Marriage is something I want to do when I'm in my 30's." "There is nothing noble about being superior to your fellow men. True nobility lies in being superior to your former self." "My older brother told me 'Stay away from women', and I'm taking it to heart. I'm staying clear. It's kind of like a museum where they have those really cool paintings. They're behind the glass and you can look at them, but you can't touch them. That's what it's like with girls. I can get myself in trouble. And its also hard because I'm an actor and girls might not like me for who I am. Thats hard to deal with." "I don't read teen magazines. They're weird. I see headlines like 'Big Blue Eyed Elijah Wood: We've got him!' I don't like that. Its so bubble gummy." "If I'm with friends, I want to talk about sports or games or a new cd thats coming out. When we talk about me, it's about me as a person not as an actor. That's great. That's a relief." "I'm not a dark person or anything, but it would be a challenge to be someone who is messed up in the head." "I think God gave me a talent to use for the positive and to do a horror movie would be like, overstepping my bounds. If I was to do a horror movie I wouldn't want to be paid. It would be like a vacation, because you don't have to use your acting skills." |
| ****"I don't do drugs. I'm not an alcoholic.I've just got incredible people backing me up....I wouldn't even think about taking drugs. I think it's ridiculous! I think people are throwing their lives away. River Pheonix was such a talented actor. I would have loved to see him win an Oscar. He so deserved it. Obviously he got mixed in with the wrong crowd. I loved him. I love life. I've always been this way. **** |
