More quotes by Christoph Waltz
Stephen Sondheim I am in awe of.
Christoph Waltz
I have always been so interested in film as a medium.
Christoph Waltz
I think in Europe, movies are made like a commodity and then sold as art.
Christoph Waltz
I don't say things straight into the other person's face. I kind of like to make a joke or a remark and make it digestible or just give a little comment that voices my concern, but is not meant to be a critique, but just a comment so that he understands that I am thinking.
Christoph Waltz
By looking into more details of American history, we can make more sense of what's happening today.
Christoph Waltz
You know, I don't talk about the characters that I play. Years ago, I was a little timid about it and I kind of squirmed when I was asked, 'Could you tell us something about your character.' Now with a little self-confidence that comes with the grey beard, I just flatly refuse.
Christoph Waltz
I have my brain switched on and I might be thinking something else but we've come to an arrangement. That sort of play is maybe easier with someone who also thinks that way. But that is not necessarily a national thing, but maybe a little bit of a cultural thing.
Christoph Waltz

Christoph Waltz
It's a wonderful narrative device to bring someone from the outside and look through his eyes if you want to describe the absurdity and preposterous reality that is accepted amongst the ones who are inside.
Christoph Waltz
I go with the most interesting thing that comes my way,I don't expect it to come from India to tell you the truth, but if it did, fine by me.
Christoph Waltz
Effortless [performance] and improvisation are two different things. Just because it's improvised doesn't mean it's effortless and just because it's effortless doesn't necessarily mean it's improvised.
Christoph Waltz
I'm not into weapons. I'm not into cars. I'm not into explosions. I'm scared of all of that.
Christoph Waltz
Facts can be so misleading, where rumors, true or false, are often revealing.
Christoph Waltz
If the shoe fits, you must wear it.
Christoph Waltz
You can't always do the extraordinary, in between you have to do the ordinary. Because if you didn't, what would constitute the extraordinary?
Christoph Waltz
You know, I don't support esoteric approaches to acting.
Christoph Waltz
My agent is the quickest, sharpest man on earth.
Christoph Waltz
The villain is usually the most interesting part. But it has to be a smart thing. Just dumb cliché villains with a Russian accent and big muscles and a mean face, I don’t know. My Russian accent isn’t that great, and the muscles aren’t that big and the mean face is not enough. You know what I mean? It gets very boring. Tedious stuff.
Christoph Waltz
One does not contradict the other.Straight-faced is the basis of all decent comedy.
Christoph Waltz
You're always being cast for what you've been in last.
