More quotes by Christopher Walken
Bear suits are funny - and bears as well.
Christopher Walken
It's true in most movies I don't use my own voice.
Christopher Walken
Usually directors hire me because I'm what they are looking for. But once in a while, and it's very rare, they will hire me and then try to make me over.
Christopher Walken
I love spaghetti. And I like to cook spaghetti. And I used to eat it every day. I weighed thirty pounds more than I do now. You can't - you can't do that.
Christopher Walken
I think the fact that I grew up in show business had a real effect on my personality. If you were born in New York during the golden age of television, and you grew up on Broadway, that marks you.
Christopher Walken
The minute I start to talk about acting, I realize that I can't. You know, it's an abstract thing, a little bit mysterious even if you do it for a living.
Christopher Walken
I've always been a character actor, although I'm not quite sure what that means. All my scripts are absolutely covered in notes, so any time I say anything - even 'pass the salt' - I have six subtexts, comments on what I really mean when I'm saying that. Maybe that's what gives the impression that I'm saying one thing and thinking something else.
Christopher Walken
I used to be prettier than I am, but I think I look better now. I was a pretty boy. Particularly in my early movies. I don’t like looking at them so much. There’s a sort of pretty thing about me.
Christopher Walken
I get a lot of invitations, and sometimes it's far away, it's in Montana or something. We'd like you to come to our daughter's wedding. These are people I've never heard of. I get a lot that. Will you come to my son's graduation? No...I guess when you're in stuff, it's almost a feeling that they know you.
Christopher Walken
People think that my favorite roles to do are villains, but I find comedy to be the most challenging and rewarding.
Christopher Walken
When I was a kid, I worked in the circus. It was a touring circus that was owned by a man named Terrell Jacobs. It was just one big tent, and he was a lion tamer. He didn't have any kids, but the bit was that I would dress up as his son in an identical outfit.
Christopher Walken
I think that if I had grown up and had been in show business and the movies twenty five, thirty years earlier, I think I would have made a lot more musical movies.
Christopher Walken
I'm in a place in my life where I get offered parts that I didn't get offered before - fathers and uncles and grandfathers and so on. And it took me a long time to get to that place, but I'm glad because it opens up new territory.
Christopher Walken
I have been in movies that I thought I wasn't very good in.
Christopher Walken
We have no way of knowing what lays ahead for us in the future. All we can do is use the information at hand to make the best decision possible.
Christopher Walken
I'm a better actor now than I ever was, I wish I could have hurried that up, but there's no way. Anyway, I always wanted to be around for a long time. Like a European actor, I hope I live a long time and that I'm acting until I finish.
Christopher Walken
My background is in musical comedy.
Christopher Walken
My favorite characters are the ones that are the most successful movies.
Christopher Walken
My life is really quite conservative. I've been married nearly 50 years. I don't have hobbies or children. I don't much care to travel. I've never had a big social life. I really just stay home, except when I go to work.
Christopher Walken
I have a lot of trouble with scripts. I have a lot of trouble imagining things while I'm reading them.
Christopher Walken
