Quotes:
[on celebrity:] "I won't change and my perspective won't change. I want to continue my
life the way I live it, and I'm not going to let anything stop me from doing that. It isn't all about acting. There's a lot
more to life than Hollywood."
[on worrying about the high expectations of Lord of the Rings fans when he was cast as
Frodo:] "I definitely felt the pressure. I wanted to live up to all of the expectations. But when I got into costume and worked
with the others, I just didn't think about it anymore."
"If I wasn't an actor, I'd be a secret agent."
"I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing in
the world."
