A biography for Jacob Elordihasn’t been written yet.
“I'm terrible at keeping to a schedule, so unless someone's telling me to do it and telling me to eat, then usually I'll just forget and I'll start doing something else.”
“Being able to be with someone I trust, where we don't want anything from each other, having a safe, steady relationship like that has really opened my eyes to the possibilities of love and what it feels like to love without conditions.”
“It's a slippery slope to put all your value into the vanity of what your body looks like. Your body is going to deteriorate.”
“You can still feel lonely with new people around because you need that home base.”
“I don't really feel like I'm building a career or trying to be this kind of actor or that kind of actor.”
“All I've ever wanted to make is movies.”
“I don't know anything about cards. I don't know how to handle them. I don't know how to shuffle.”
“There's a great deal of hurt in that, having someone who's supposed to be there for you, to pick you up, telling you that 'I can't love you.' I think that's always gonna be a little bit heartbreaking.”
“I would never stop anything, whether it be running or riding a bike up a hill. To this day, I will never, ever stop.”
“When I first moved to L.A., my mum just bought me a cupboard full of vitamins. Cod liver oil, echinacea, magnesium.”
“It's always there, it's in your bones, every single piece of grief or loss or happiness or sadness you feel in your life is there.”
“Whatever works, you know. As long as you get to that place between action and cut.”
“I was fifteen and terrified of all body hair.”
“I've done some movies where it gets to the point where it's like, 'He goes to the mall, shirtless,' and you're like, 'Why?'”
“It felt like, all of a sudden, I was a poster. Like I was a billboard. It felt like it was for sale.”
“I don't have a designated cheat day, I feel like you can get so dogmatic about that kind of stuff. I have kind of an Anthony Bourdain approach; enjoy it while it's there. Eat the hamburger, drink the beer.”
“I know a lot of male actors - kudos to them - do pushups and stuff before a scene, even if it has nothing to do with the scene, just so they look like they're in great shape. Which is fine, but I wouldn't say it's my prerogative.”
“I enjoyed playing the actor. I stepped away from beer culture and from sport culture, and I was like, well, if you think this is gay, I'm going to be who I am when I was your friend, which is this hetero guy, but I'm going to play the arts.”
“The trick is they just always cast me with girls who are five-foot-two. Everyone's like, 'You're so big!' Yeah, but they're also not big, not even average-size women. They're quite small.”
“There are some funny people online.”
