Rodrigo Santoro quotes:

I love both the sun and the moon, day and night. But I enjoy the day the most because I live in Rio and I can play sports.

I need to surf - surf and yoga. Whenever I'm in L.A., I go down to San Diego to surf for the weekend, and I always come back perfect.

I'm a spiritual person. I'm not very religious. I was raised Catholic, but I am influenced a lot by Buddhism and Hinduism.

I don't want to be in a position where I'm playing roles I'm comfortable with and making money, but doing it without feeling like I'm growing.

My mom and my dad are still together, but so many of my friends who got married just a few years ago aren't. Maybe it's that we compare ourselves to our parents' generation, thinking, 'Who's still together, and are they happy?'

When you shoot a movie, the camera is always taking, taking, taking and not giving anything back.

In film, you're always using your tools, your body, your voice, your emotions, but onstage, you use them in a different way.

It's hard, the green screen; it's a different way of working.

I enjoy playing evil, but not one-dimensional evil characters. I like the ebbs and cracks in the armor.

In a lot of roles, strong women feel like they need to apologize. But men don't need to apologize for being ruthless and women somehow do?
