In general, we are lazy as consumers and just want to label people as good guy, bad guy.

There are a lot of Swedes in Hollywood in general. We have a tendency to know each other and help each other out.

A true artist, in my mind, is willing to fail sometimes, because if you're not brave enough to say yes and follow your gut, it's never going to be good.

People don't know much about what's going on on the ground in Iraq: what you see in the media is heavily censored.

There was this sausage factory a block away from my childhood apartment. It didn't smell nice, like chorizo or something; it was pretty foul. Just nasty. But that smell reminds me so much of my childhood because every morning when I was going to school, I would smell that.

What I do in WWE is essentially a lovable bad guy.
