I swear, the bigger your muscles get, the duller you are. You become fascinated with carbs and protein and ripped abs and things that are just not interesting at all.

More quotes by Christian Bale

There are movies where actors aren't characters but movie stars, being cool beyond belief throughout the whole movie. That is what it is. And we reveal ourselves when we act, very often without noticing. But if I can manage to do a character without showing anything of myself, then that's the ultimate goal for me. No leakage.

It's tough to make a good movie. I think the bigger the movies are, the worse they are. A lot of big movies make a lot of money and you kind of forget about what they are and they don't really make you think.
Christian Bale
Image
It's got to do with putting yourself in other people's shoes and seeing how far you can come to truly understand them. I like the empathy that comes from acting.

You say something bad about Newsies and you have an awful lot of people to answer to.

I tend to stay in character between scenes... to be rather serious on set, but here's why, and I think people will find it surprising. I'm one of the worst 'corpses' on a movie set, which means you can't keep a straight face. You start to get the giggles and you can't stop.

It was a great honor to be called a mo-fo by Sam Jackson.

I quite like it when you're working with people and you only get to know them through the scenes that you're doing together.
Christian Bale
Image
I don't think I'm like any of the characters I've played. They're all really far from who I am.

The art of survival is a story that never ends.
Christian Bale
Image
I always leave disaster for other people to decide, because some of the things I consider to be disasters are some people's favorite movies. And that's what I like so much, is that you never know. Something intrigues somebody and means nothing to somebody else.

Image
Planning a career, I always find a tricky thing, because I don't have much of a plan, really.
Christian Bale
Image
I start from scratch with each movie I wipe the slate and I certainly don't rely on some bag of acting tricks I've amassed over the years.
Christian Bale
Image
I never want to feel that I'm playing it safe.
Christian Bale
Image
There are occasions when I've pretended to be in a firefight, and then there are people who have really been in a firefight. Clearly it's absolutely ridiculous, and even disrespectful, to suggest that I understand what that is.

In everyday life, my wife is the most wonderful. We're in love with each other beyond belief.

Art is something to be proud of. Art is no compromise.

How serious can a movie about time-traveling robots be? You want it to be cool and fun.
Christian Bale
Image
I never try to guess what anyone else will take from a movie. Every movie is such a different experience for each and every person. I don't like it when people try telling people what they should take from a movie. You should go see it with fresh eyes and see for themselves.

What I like about it is that I'm not somebody who's in movies. I'm a guy who's not very good going around the track with a bunch of guys who are a hell of a lot better.

I'm an actor I'm not a politician. I always kick myself when I talk too much about family, or personal things.
