Shooting guns is not something I would do in my spare time. I really don’t understand why Americans can purchase guns so easily and why they use them for sporting purposes.

Born: October 3, 1988 in Gothenburg, Västra Götalands län, Sweden

[The New York Times – February 9, 2016] During production of The Danish Girl (2015), the filmmakers were obsessed with me not looking Scandinavian and I was like, ‘I’m the only Scandinavian in the whole film.’ They paled my skin, to make me lighter. People say that I’m tanned, but that’s my natural color.

Happy Birthday: Terence Winter

[ The Sopranos (1999)] I watched eighteen different versions of the last scene of the series finale. All very subtle variations on each other, but that was so painstaking, shot by shot, and it took David [Chase] weeks I think to put that ending together. I thought it was great. What I always took away from it was: when you’re Tony Soprano, even going out for ice cream with your family is going to be fraught with paranoia, and whether a guy comes out of the bathroom that night, eventually somebody’s going to come out of the bathroom somewhere. Maybe it happened that night, maybe it didn’t. But his legacy is paranoia and just that horrible distance that he lives in. I was shocked that people were so angry. It upset David that people would think, Oh, he’s trying to fuck with us.

[on Charles Chaplin] The greatest compliment I ever got was from Chaplin. He came up to me and said, “I wish I could talk like you on the screen”. I said, “I think you’re doing alright”. He had made $50 million by that point. He was the best comedian we ever had.

I don’t belong to a church or political party or a group of any kind. I feel that Amnesty International is the most civilized organization in history. Its currency is the written word. Its weapon is the letter; that’s why I am a member. I believe in its non-violence; I believe in its effectiveness. Its dignity and its sense of commitment. Its focus on individuals and the concentration and tenacity with which they defend those imprisoned for their ideas has earned it the cautious respect of repressive governments throughout the world.

[on the induction of The Police into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame] I am very proud of the legacy of The Police. We are a damn good band and it still holds up.

It’s your job that should inspire you; fame is just a by-product of something that should give you satisfaction and happiness. Someone said that for every three seconds of glamour you see, there are eight hours of hard work. And if those eight hours of hard work aren’t what you’re in it for, then the three seconds won’t give you the joy that you think it will.
