It's important to me to work in my own language now and then. I love English, but you can never learn to master a foreign language if you're not brought up with it

I accept a role only if it's something I really, really like

Only very rarely are foreigners or first-generation immigrants allowed to be nice people in American films. Those with an accent are bad guys

The power of Christ compels you!

I like to play with things a while before annihilation.

I think English is a fantastic, rich and musical language, but of course your mother tongue is the most important for an actor

I remember those days with Bergman with great nostalgia. We were aware that the films were going to be quite important, and the work felt meaningful.
