“One of the candidates had mercifully left one of the pages with no writing on it (which is the best thing that can possibly happen to an examiner) and I wrote on it: ‘In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit’. Names always generate a story in my mind. Eventually I thought I’d better find out what hobbits were like. But that’s only the beginning.“

“She’s very relaxed and surprisingly mature. She was so convincing, I honestly began imagining she really was an elf princess. As an actor, you learn to make the best of where you’re living and who you are with at the time. People like Liv were so warm and welcoming to me, it made the work a pleasure”

"There is more in you of good than you know, child of the kindly West. Some courage and some wisdom, blended in measure. If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world."

"I had no interests. I had no interest in anything. I had no idea how I was going to escape. At least the others had some taste for life. They seemed to understand something that I didn’t understand. Maybe I was lacking. It was possible. I often felt inferior. I just wanted to get away from them. But there was no place to go. Suicide? Jesus Christ, just more work. I felt like sleeping for five years but they wouldn’t let me."

"The thing that circumscribes life for almost all of us is not war, but disease. […] We’re going to have to find our heroism and our well lived lives in small ways… in taking care of each other and in taking care of ourselves."
