What intrigues me is that people kind of naturally want to label or pigeonhole the characters. they want to make it easy for themselves to go, "all right. there's the good guy, there's the bad guy, there's the girl. okay, i get it now." but life isn't one-dimensional. the world isn't simply divided into good versus evil. i think we're all capable of both. so any time the hero does something i'm not crazy about, or the bad guy does something i can relate to, i'll find it more interesting.

More From Alexander Skarsgard

Man versus woman equals fun. man versus man equals gay. woman versus woman equals awesome. man versus pillow equals crazy. pillow versus pillow equals crazy awesome - that's a real pillow fight right there. you see two pillows fighting, you know something's going down. they're designed for relaxation. if they're fighting, what hope do we have? one time i saw two geese fighting, and i was like, 'this is a pillow fight ahead of time.

Thinking Evil World
The number one problem in our world is alienation, rich versus poor, black versus white, labor versus management, conservative versus liberal, east versus west . . . but christ came to bring about reconciliation and peace.

It concerns me when i see a small child watching the hero shoot the villain on television. it is teaching the small child to believe that shooting people is heroic. the hero just did it and it was effective. it was acceptable and the hero was well thought of afterward. if enough of us find inner peace to affect the institution of television, the little child will see the hero transform the villain and bring him to a good life. he'll see the hero do something significant to serve fellow human beings. so little children will get the idea that if you want to be a hero you must help people.

When one has once accepted and absorbed evil, it no longer demands the unfitness of the means. the ulterior motives with which youabsorb and assimilate evil are not your own but those of evil.... evil is whatever distracts. evil knows of the good, but good does not know of evil. knowledge of oneself is something only evil has. one means that evil has is the dialogue.... one cannot pay evil in installments--and one always keeps on trying to.

I think i could describe the perfect quarterback. take a little piece of everybody. take john elway's arm, dan marino's release, maybe troy aikman's drop-back, brett favre's scrambling ability, joe montana's two-minute poise and, naturally, my speed.

Economic libertarians and christian evangelicals, united by their common enemy, are strange bedfellows in today's republican party, just as the two georges - the archconservative wallace and the uberliberal mcgovern - found themselves in the same democratic party in 1972.

Life and consciousness are the two great mysteries. actually, their substrates are the inanimate. and how do you get from neurons shooting around in the brain to the thought that pops up in your head and mine? there's something deeply mysterious about that. and if you're not struck by the mystery, i think you haven't thought about it.
