I have this theory that, depending on your attitude, your life doesn't have to become this ridiculous charade that it seems so many people end up living.

More quotes by Christian Bale
Sometimes the truth isn't good enough. Sometimes people have got to have their faith rewarded.
Christian Bale
I'm English. Our dentistry is not world famous.
Christian Bale
I chose to tell a personal story. When you tell a movie like this that's as emotionally charged as this is, it's a risk. As one of my great cinematic heroes, Francis Coppola, would say, If you aren't taking the highest, greatest risk, then why are you a filmmaker?
Christian Bale
I don't ever really sit back and look at roles I've taken and look at any similarities.
Christian Bale
The art of survival is a story that never ends.
Christian Bale
I have a very sissy job, where I go to work and get my hair done, and people do my makeup, and I go and say lines and people spoil me rotten. And everyone has that kind of curiosity of how far can you go, how far can you take it. I think it's always good testing yourself.
Christian Bale
I started my career without fans.
Christian Bale
For me, I think the harder the shoot, the more I feel like I'm enjoying myself.
Christian Bale
I've always believed that the director does whatever the hell he wants. That's what you sign on for as an actor - I can't stand it when you have actors who are trying to leverage directors into doing things they don't want to do.
Christian Bale
Whatever you do, do it completely. Don't do it half-arsed. Do it more than anybody else would.
Christian Bale
I only sound intelligent when there's a good script writer around.
Christian Bale
I always figure hey, look, I'm not a rock star, I'm an actor. I'm somebody who's meant to be other people and I'm not meant to be here representing myself. I'm happier when I'm presenting myself as other characters.
Christian Bale
You either decide to take the easy way out, which means you're only going to disappoint yourself and everybody else, or you take the risk right now of being a fool, which is the only way you'll end up being exhilarated later on when you actually watch the movie.
Christian Bale
It was always that I finished one movie and then had no idea what I was doing. I think there's a limited amount of planning you can do, at least in the position I'm in. Maybe more successful actors can plan more than I'm able to.
Christian Bale
There have been many times when you spend a number of months and the finished product is not what you wanted to see. And 'Batman Begins' was what I wanted to see.
Christian Bale
It's the actors who are prepared to make fools of themselves who are usually the ones who come to mean something to the audience.
Christian Bale
I will never say never, but I will say never to doing the more typical romantic comedies. You know, unless I'm getting audited and I'm on the street and I desperately need some dough and that's the only thing that I'm getting.
Christian Bale
I become a bit of a blank page in public. And that's precisely why I like acting.
Christian Bale
I never want to feel that I'm playing it safe.
Christian Bale
Were all conning ourselves, one way or another, just to get through life.
Christian Bale
