I am looking through some right now...
and one I just have to share...
I am crying here just because my heart aches for him...
and... it's like all the poems I wrote about him, and they expressed that,
but I didn't know he said it... and well just now I am really... stunned...
On His Artwork: "Sometimes I stand in front of my paintings and think: God! What's that for? And then I question everything: Am I a good actor? Am I a good father? I should stop bothering people with this crap! I can understand why people jump out of windows."
***
On Being True to Yourself: "Everyone has a few friends that they can listen to. You don't have to agree with them, but their opinion is worthwhile. If you're trying to please everyone, then you're not going to make anything that is honestly yours, I don't think, in the long run."
true...

On Being Called a Sex Symbol: “First of all I don’t consider myself a sex-symbol, and I think that’s important. The troubles arise if you think of yourself as a symbol. I mean, you couldn’t live with that… In my everyday life it doesn’t mean a thing. But my agent from time to time delivers a bunch of fan-letters, and I read them, and out of 50 letters the 49 are always sweet and very flattering, and I’m happy to read that my movies mean something to people, and that they mean something different to people. But then there’s always one letter which is weird, and where a woman wants to marry me right now, and she has left her husband and family back in Kansas. That’s really very sad and disheartens me. But by far the most of the response is positive and intelligent.”
god...
I mean *grins* there is a difference between silent late at night fantasies and what you wrould write him! God!

On the War in Iraq: "I do find that in this country you have to make a big effort to be well-informed. There is no real news anymore. the war in Iraq was not unlike a studio movie. There was a certain schedule. There was a budget. There were the appropriate visuals. There was a lot of comparing the good guys with the bad guys. The administration uses nomenclature reminiscent of the '30's; it's like they're studying the German technique of subverting attention in a time of national crisis. The erasure of memory is more prevalent than ever. It's easier to sell people the same load of shit tomorrow if they forgot they bought it today."
*nods* very wise...

On His Scarred Upper Lip: "It was a combination of a fist and a barbed wire fence on a particularly bad Halloween night. I was 17 and so drunk that I didn't even need an anaesthetic when the doctor sewed me up. When I got out of surgery, my friends had ordered pizzas to the hospital and I helped them eat them."
:eeeek: outch!!!!
LMFAO! :lmao:

oh and just this...
by Orlando but it's so sweet :)
Orlando Bloom: “I flew over just to visit Viggo,” says Bloom, who had heard that Mortensen was organizing a reunion dinner. He, Mortensen and Henry, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler (who plays Arwen), and members of the crew took a bus to the countryside. After dinner, Bloom and Henry went for a walk and noticed how beautifully the moon was shining on a nearby river.
“We ran back and said, ‘Everyone’s got to see this.’ ” Bloom recalls. “I was having a Viggo moment—running out, getting people to come and check out the moon.”
Some decided to wade into the stream, but Mortensen suggested the more perilous task of crossing the river.
“I’m like, ‘Fuck off,’ and he says, ‘Come on.’ So we’re barefoot, waist-high in water, walking on these little rocks to get to the other side and I’m doing it because I’m an idiot and I’m following his lead. Because he’s an idiot. And because he’s amazing,” Bloom laughs. “I can’t believe how much this is going to make me sound like I’m in love with the guy.”
And who could blame you???

:blink: Your heart aches for him? Um... not to be mean, but did you think you'd ever go out with him??? My friend talked this sense into me awhile back... "You don't even know the guy! He's 3 times as old as you, has a son, and chances are: you'll never even get to meet him! There's a difference between admiring someone and actually LOVING them..." Hope that helped... :unsure:
*lol*
I think you got me wrong...
I don't "Love" him...
in some ways his poetry and words speak to me, reachs my heart as something that really enchants me...
But I don't love him...
I think I expressed myself wrongly, sometimes I just feel my heart aching maybe not for him as in a person but in as an idea of a lifestyle... of... personality that I wanna be... wanna find in someone...
but I don't love him,...

Um....why is it impossible to love someone you've never met? Don't love and admiration go hand in hand. Love in a literal sense isn't implied here, its a metaphorical love that I think Laila is implying here....
My heart aches for prince charming, but that doesn't mean I expect to marry him and spend my life with him. We base our hopes and wants on a set of expectations. Viggo has the highest of quality...what better man to set our dreams upon.
Laila...I believe your love to be beautiful...and contagious :wub: someone with the ability to love as you do is inspiring
xoxoxoox

Laila: I know exactly how you feel. love his lifestyle, I can only dream to be like him one day. His paintings, poetry, photographs. They all reach me in a certain way. He is an amazing man.
lol. i know what Laila means. She doesn't LOVE him. but she loves him as a person. as an inspiration. his poems, art work. etc. speaks to some of his fans and that's captured alot of our member's hearts at least once.
