More quotes by Christopher Lee
As far as I am concerned, Don Quixote is the most metal fictional character that I know. Single handed, he is trying to change the world, regardless of any personal consequences.
Christopher Lee
We don't always get the kind of work we want, but we always have a choice of whether to do it with good grace or not.
Christopher Lee
I've seen many men die right in front of me - so many in fact that I've become almost hardened to it. Having seen the worst that human beings can do to each other, the results of torture, mutilation and seeing someone blown to pieces by a bomb, you develop a kind of shell. But you had to. You had to. Otherwise, we would never have won.
Christopher Lee
The saddest country I went to was Romania, years ago, during Ceausescu's rule.

Films are now made by accountants. They pick a pretty young female or male face out of the air and give them a part - not because they think that person is right for it or is ready for it, but because they think that person will make them money.
Christopher Lee
I lived for 10 years in Los Angeles, and the one element that surpasses everything else - that you are very conscious of - is fear. You can smell it.
Christopher Lee
People should not pass judgment until they have seen the film.
Christopher Lee
What's really important for me is, as an old man, I'm known by my own generation and the next generation know me, too.
Christopher Lee
I think that - apart from the fields of science and medicine - we live in an age of decline. Look at the world. There is decline in morals, ideals, manners, respect, truthfulness: just about everything, in fact.
Christopher Lee
I thought that people should know about the dangers of Satanism, and diabolism does exist - there's no question about it.
Christopher Lee
I was once asked what I thought was the most disquieting thing you could see on the screen and I said, An open door.
Christopher Lee
I wasn't a spy. I'd have been spotted in five seconds. Yes, I was in intelligence, but that covered a multitude of things.
Christopher Lee
I was always fascinated by fairy stories, fantasy, you know, demons, necromancers, gods and goddesses, everything that is out of our kin and out of our everyday world. I was always interested in enchantment and magicians and still am.
Christopher Lee
Making films has never just been a job to me, it is my life. I have some interests outside of acting - I sing and I've written books, for instance - but acting is what keeps me going, it's what I do, it gives life purpose.
Christopher Lee
The secret to a long marriage in the film industry? Marry someone wonderful, as I did. And always have her come along on location.
Christopher Lee
In Britain, any degree of success is met with envy and resentment.
