A solid base for any comedy is just honesty and truth, and it coming from a real place. As surreal as this show gets and is, ultimately, we're dealing with a character that most can't see the way that I can see it.

More quotes by Elijah Wood
It was kind of unique and great to have two films coming out within a week. It certainly was a different experience for me.
Elijah Wood
Our bad memories and our bad experiences are what make us who we are and what make us grow and allow us to learn, if we choose to see the lessons in those experiences.
Elijah Wood
I just can't imagine that people would stand for it. People are wanting to potentially elect someone who will get our troops out, so at this stage, if the draft was reinstated, I just think that people would have none of it.
Elijah Wood
The other main difference between film and television is that you have the opportunity to flush out a character, over a longer period of time. Whereas with a film, you're confined to two or three hours, or whatever it may be.
Elijah Wood
[Sundance] still feels like an incredible place for championing emerging voices and art.
Elijah Wood
[Sundance is] giving people a chance - many first-time filmmakers. It carries that weight - if you bring something here, people connect with it and it can launch a career.
Elijah Wood
If you cut off your arm instead of going 'spurt, spurt, spurt' wouldn't it, like, go nuts? Or would it go with the beat of your heart?
Elijah Wood
The guy is a stud with women just following him around wherever he goes. But he is the last one who'll ask anyone to do anything for him. He'd rather just go do it himself.
Elijah Wood
It's always nice when you get a chance to actually work with the other actor. It just brings the scene to life, in a way that's not as easy to replicate on your own.
Elijah Wood
So, as much as it is about this continuing war, the reinstated draft, and their individual views, it's really sort of a deeply human tale, and a character study as well.
Elijah Wood
The prospect of being able to work on a Kaufman film with him directing was just too good to be true.
Elijah Wood
It was so clear from the beginning - what [Macon Blair] wanted to make [in I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore].
Elijah Wood
You've got major artists releasing albums on their own and eschewing the major system. I think that breeds excitement and creativity.
Elijah Wood
I never wanted to be in a band because I love music too much to mess it up.
Elijah Wood
I initially thought it was going to feel weird to be [on Sundance] while [the marches against now-President Donald Trump] was happening. And feel disconnected in that way that feels irresponsible. But the other side of it is that there are people here who believe the right things that are trying to make a difference with art.
Elijah Wood
[I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore ] really jumped off the page. And there were so many specific notes within the context of the script. Music cues, for instance.
Elijah Wood
When I work, I disappear into work, which I like to do, and sometimes I don't really have a choice. It's not a conscious thing. It's just total devotion to what I'm doing.
Elijah Wood
It feels kind of good to be [on Sundance]. There is a sense of unification and community and voices rising together, and that all feels good.
Elijah Wood
I think being different, going against the grain of society is the greatest thing in the world.
Elijah Wood
We all deal with a certain amount of stress, on a day-to-day basis. I probably smoke too many cigarettes, which isn't a very good thing. I don't have any extraordinary coping mechanism. I certainly don't talk to a dog.
Elijah Wood
