Tom Hiddleston Quote: 'I gave myself permission to care, because there are a lot of people in this world who are afraid of caring, or afraid of showing that they care because its uncool. It's uncool to have passion. It's so much easier to loose when you've shown everyone how much you don't care if you win or loose. It's much harder to loose when you show that you care, but, you'll never win, unless you also stand to loose. Don't be afraid of your passion.'
