More quotes by Christopher Walken
I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell.
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
I feel like you are this or that because other people say so. I wouldn't know how to play a psychopath. I don't think about it that way. You think about playing the scene but if the other people say that guy is crazy, then you are.
Christopher Walken
I think I'm getting a little bit of Alzheimer's. Just a little.
Christopher Walken
It's true in most movies I don't use my own voice.
Christopher Walken
There probably aren't a lot of actors my age who tap dance.
Christopher Walken
I became very critical of zoos and circuses and keeping animals in captivity. I wish it was against the law.

I never know when I am being funny, and the other way too. I don't think you can think about that. I don't think you can try to be funny. Some people are just funny.
Christopher Walken
My hair was famous before I was.
Christopher Walken
Because if I don't know my lines, I really don't know what I'm doing.
Christopher Walken
When I was a kid I joined the circus. I did that. It is true. But it's not like you think. There was a guy, he had his own circus. His name was Carol Jacobs and he owned it. It was a small thing.
Christopher Walken
I got [Muhammad Ali's boxing shorts] for $40 at an auction. Nobody wanted them. I have them framed in my house.
Christopher Walken
There are movies that I've made where I thought I was going to be good, but when it was cut it together it wasn't. And there are a lot of movies that, for one reason or another, just don't become popular. So to me it's always been a little bit of a roll of the dice. That's the way it goes.
Christopher Walken
I don't play lovers. I wish I did. At least once I'd like to have a crack at one of those guys. A heartbreaker. Some people are born to it. I'm not.
Christopher Walken
One of the difficult things about being an actor is to stick around.
Christopher Walken
I live sort of in the country and I like that. It's very quiet, it's beautiful.
Christopher Walken
I do like to work. Some jobs are better than others. That's the thing: You really don't know. I've enjoyed making movies for lots of different reasons. Sometimes, it was the other people. Sometimes, it was the fact that I was really good in it. Sometimes, it was the location. Sometimes, it was the paycheck.
Christopher Walken
I tend to play mostly villains and twisted people. Unsavory guys. I think it's my face, the way I look.
Christopher Walken
To be honest, I was never very ambitious. And I still am not.
Christopher Walken
In rehearsal you have a good accident that you can repeat.In the movies if you have a good accident you hope the camera's running.
Christopher Walken
