I like to read everything, really, especially autobiographies.

Tina Fey's autobiography is very, very funny and very well written. It's her life story: it's about how she grows up in New York. There's no obvious reason why I should enjoy this - I mean, this is the autobiography of a woman in her early 40s in New York. I'm a guy from a small town in Denmark.

I can't imagine life without my wife, but I don't think you should get a prize for staying together a long time.

I work a lot abroad and have the most wonderful family and kids, but being away, you do miss out sometimes. I really hope I won't regret the choices in the future.

I haven't really got any hidden talents.

I don't necessarily enjoy being at the gym. It's something I have to do, more than something I look forward to doing. But it does enable me to do fun things.

Still, to this day, I can't run on the treadmill. Why not just run outside? I never understood it.

I always feel for the younger cast members in 'Game of Thrones.' They're really clever and smart.

I think advice is cheap. You can only really learn by doing and making mistakes.

There's a recent film, the Swedish movie 'Force Majeure.' I just thought it was brilliant.

Some of the stuff in Season 3 on 'Game of Thrones' - the amount of mud I had to eat, not intentionally but by accident - was pretty tough.

I've never heard of the wife looking up the mistress to become friends, but I like it.

The most famous actress who did the 'dumb blond' routine was Marilyn Monroe, but she was a genius actress.

It's okay for a guy to be a baddie, but a woman? No, we can't deal with that.

There's nothing exceptional about me, but there's something exceptional about Jaime Lannister, and I think that's what's interesting.

Most people can relate to that whole annoying thing when people think they know who you are.

There are so many things to do in New York. I try to get to the theater and see some plays. I have a bicycle over here, and I ride around New York.
