My worst habit is whistling while I sleep.

Rather than thinking, 'If I do this, and in five years I'll be where I want to be,' you're better just doing something that makes you happy now.

But you talk to most filmmakers and it is six, seven, eight years trying to get things off the ground. It is incredible really.

I really like acting but, just now, the more I read a script I find myself thinking I'd like to direct rather than act.

Strangely enough, the first time I tried to read [The Lord of the Rings] I was on holiday in Florida. I dropped it in the pool my first day there. If that's not a Pippin thing to do, I don't know what is.

For me, what makes great actors, always is how truthful they are to the character and the story and the emotion that they're trying to tell.
