“At the time, number four of the Skarsgård actors. So in high school I majored in science and was like, “Maybe I’ll do something rebellious and become a doctor.””

To me, it’s all about inspiration. What gets me creatively excited is a challenge.

Be Impeccable with Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean.

I’ve always been a night person. There’s a sense of virtue attached to getting up in the morning and doing things and starting the day, and I always felt bad for not being that person. But as I’ve gotten a bit older, now I’m completely okay with it. That’s just who I am.

I can deal with it now, but 13 is a tough age to be recognized and famous. It’s a tough age, period.

In terms of jobs, I’m an actor. There’s gotta’ be depth there. I’d never say yes to something just to play the hot guy. That’s not what I’m interested in.

I come from a family of pacifists, so it’s not like I was going to join the war. Sweden is not like the States or England where you might get sent to Afghanistan next month.

There’s something I love about how stark the contrast is between January and June in Sweden.

Eventually, I landed the job, and that was something that I felt transcended whatever other people would think of me.

I had no idea what I wanted to do. In my last two years of high school here happened to be these few scripts that I really responded to.

I don’t want to ever think that I don’t know what to do. I want to deal with my own things, to perform my own roles, to be like, “I did this.”

My height can be a problem. A lot of directors and photographers are sometimes not happy because I’m pretty tall and especially if I work with short actors the difference can be pretty massive.

When I read a script and have my first interaction with this character, do I feel like there’s something I’m gonna’ learn here? If I feel like it’s something I’ve done before, then what’s the incentive for me to do it?

I have three older brothers, and each one of them has chosen one of my parents’ education. Two of them are actors, and the third is a doctor as my mother is.

I’m always looking for something that’s real and that’s got meat on it. I think it’s artistic suicide if you’re too vain, or if you’re afraid to play ugly. I would never fall for that.

He was so good and honest. Why couldn’t I love him instead?

You love me?” … “Yes. More than life.

Battle rap is a culture. That’s boxing, it’s like boxing.

People always known me for rappin’. So I guess that maybe just hindered me, like “oh well, I mid-as-well go long term with it.”

I do believe that a film like Ten could never have been made with a 35mm camera. The first part of the film lasts 17 minutes, and by the end of that part, the kid has totally forgotten the camera.

Not even battling but just really known for rapping. Like I had songs up on Soundclick first, take it back.

To use a basketball metaphor, West Wing cast was a group that liked to pass as much as they liked to shoot.

Never underestimate your fans; they’ll tell you exactly what they like.
