More quotes by Viggo Mortensen
The Black Lives Matter movement, the various Occupy movements in Spain and the rest of Europe, in this country, and elsewhere serve as an example of what can be done, and how strong the voices for positive change and truly democratic progress can be.
Viggo Mortensen
Once you learn the idea of what a good guy is, you want your dad to be a good guy, and when your dad lets you down and doesn't act like a good guy, it's disappointing and can make you angry as you see it happen, which is beautiful and very believable.
Viggo Mortensen
Bernie Sanders has inspired millions of people in this country.

I was raised in Argentina until I was 11 and now I go back there a lot, at least twice a year. It's a country where I feel very comfortable and it represents an important period in my life.
Viggo Mortensen
I think we're on the wrong path in this country and have been for a while. People are in their camps divided by region, economic situation, race, religion, ideology. And there's a lot of just staying in your camp using technology to bolster your case without actually debating with other people, without discussing.
Viggo Mortensen
I try to avoid conflict. I don't want people to be unhappy.
Viggo Mortensen
You have a moral obligation to finish the job you said you would do.

I like naturally occurring film grain, and what happens to film when it's under- and over-exposed.
Viggo Mortensen
I was raised speaking English and Spanish. And I also speak Danish. And I can get by in French and Italian. I've acted in Spanish and English, but when something has to do with emotions, sometimes I feel I can get to the heart of the matter better in Spanish.
Viggo Mortensen
I have a work ethic. If I say I'm going to do something, I do it.
Viggo Mortensen
It's easy to get depressed and think, Well, what's the point? But it's the same as, Well, we're all going to die, so what's the point in brushing my teeth or even saying hello to anyone or obeying traffic lights. You can do that, but that's certainly not going to take you anywhere.
Viggo Mortensen
I mean, any movie or story that makes you accept and be grateful for something about your life is doing something right.
Viggo Mortensen
That is to say, Hillary Clinton is not, in my mind, a satisfying or calming alternative to Donald Trump.
Viggo Mortensen
You can't really go back to where you came from. I don't think any of us can.
Viggo Mortensen
Further devastation of the air, land and sea is obviously a very real possibility, unless the attitudes of politicians and all who irresponsibly exploit our natural resources change significantly in the very near future and all collaborate and sacrifice for the good of the planet.
Viggo Mortensen
When I have a day off, I won't spend it at a Hollywood party. I'd rather be at home with paints and a blank canvas.
Viggo Mortensen
Freud was the son of a Jewish merchant who had to move his whole family to Vienna because he couldn't get work. He, as a boy, had to watch his father be mocked and abused on the street for being Jewish... You develop a thick skin and you develop a certain kind of wit to defend yourself.
Viggo Mortensen
This basic thing I always do: 'What happened between the character's birth, and page one of the script?' Anything that's not in the story, I'll fill in the blanks.
Viggo Mortensen
Walking down the street in any town or city in the world and having people look at you and start talking to you, convinced that they know you as well or better than they do members of their own family, that's just an odd phenomenon. But I mean, I wouldn't say it was a bad thing. It's an interesting thing.
Viggo Mortensen
Every year I hear people complain that the quality of screenplays and movies is declining. In my opinion, the vast majority of scripts written - as well as most movies that are released - are not very original, well-written, or interesting. It has always been that way, and I think it always will be.
