Anthony Hopkins: Living the Life |
by Gary Geyer
LetLifeIn.com: Sir Anthony, you say, you are living your life exactly as you want to. What kinds of things are you into? Do you have a passion?
Anthony Hopkins: “I’m into relaxation now. Passion is a killer — Oh God, yes — and it implies intensity and pomposity. I don’t have intensity about anything really.
LetLifeIn: Sounds exciting.
A.H.: “Actually, I get bored easily. I’ve got the attention span of a hummingbird. Probably that new fangled A.D.D. I have no consistency at all. I used to think it was a curse. I’d plan to do things. You know, ‘Tomorrow I’ll spend 45 minutes in the gym.’ But I’d look at the alarm clock and [he makes a snoring sound] go back to sleep.”
LetLifeIn: When you are not filming, how do you spend your free time?
A.H.: “I do nothing at all. I go for a coffee or jump in the pool. It’s quite a blessing. The freedom to do what I want to do.” “I don’t cook. I can’t boil an egg, make a cup of tea, so I go out and have breakfast with a couple of the guys. We meet at various coffee shops and eat pancakes or whatever.”
LetLifeIn: I don’t believe you. You must do something.
A.H.: “I do read a little. I’m addicted to books. I read five at a time.”
LetLifeIn: What Kind of books do you read?
A.H.: “Right now I’m reading August 1914, by Soljzenitzein. I’ve been fascinated by Russia since I was kid. I was a budding young Marxist as a boy. I used to read Trotsky’s Russian Revolution.”
LetLifeIn: Anything else?
A.H.: “Seven Lessons from Chaos. It’s a long essay on the nature of life and chaos. Ahhh, not heavy stuff” [he says with a smile].
LetLifeIn: Yes, I can see that.
A.H.: “I find by reading, it opens my mind up. Things flow in and out of it. I don’t have any passions. I enjoy astronomy, reading physics. I read a wonderful book called, The Hologram of the Universe. The whole universe is one big dream, a hologram. I’m interested in that, nothing spooky. Little bits of psychology, Jungian synchronicity.”
“I’m not into the paranormal or anything. I like the occasional biographies. I’m interested in the American presidents. I’ve read books about Eisenhower, Truman, Kennedy, Roosevelt, several on Nixon. It takes me a long time.”
LetLifein: We’ve read that you make about 20 million a movie. What do you do with it all?
A.H.: “I don’t have expensive tastes. “I drive a half-gas, half-electric car. A Prius, I think it’s called. I don’t even know what I’ve got,” [he laughs] “It’s my microscopic whatever to the energy crisis. Or I’ll walk. I don’t have fast cars.”
“I’ve got a lovely piano [a Steinway] that cost a bit of cash. I don’t collect paintings. I’ve got some things that are OK, but they’re not masterpieces. They’re probably junk actually. One or two nice pieces of furniture but they’re probably worm eaten.”
LetlifeIn: Is there any place you’d rather be?
A.H.: “I love California. It’s so sunny and free. I’m really a beach bum, you know.
LetLifein: I don’t want to sound pretentious, but how would you describe your philosophy of life?
A.H.: “Life is chaos. Embrace the chaos, the disorder and have some fun with it. You have to live a long time to get to that place of being --that’s my philosophy. <<
