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.

More quotes by Christopher Walken
I don't know why people eat so badly. I could eat pasta all the time, but it really is fattening. And I love ice cream, but I can't do that. There was a time, until I was in my mid-forties, when I could eat a whole pizza - and really, no effect.
Christopher Walken
I think I'm getting a little bit of Alzheimer's. Just a little.
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
Bear suits are funny - and bears as well.
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.
Christopher Walken
I'm an angel. I kill firstborns while their mamas watch. I turn cities into salt. I even, when I feel like it, rip the souls from little girls, and from now till kingdom come, the only thing you can count on in your existence is never understanding why.
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 tend to play mostly villains and twisted people. Unsavory guys. I think it's my face, the way I look.
Christopher Walken
I like to stand in my kitchen with the script on a counter that's about chest high. Usually I do something else at the same time - make a chicken or slice vegetables - and all day long I just read it over and over and over.
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
Guns make me very nervous. They're dangerous. I'm more of a pacifist than anyone could imagine.
Christopher Walken
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
As an actor you become that lighting rod between the person who made the play and the audience.
Christopher Walken
To be honest, I was never very ambitious. And I still am not.
Christopher Walken
I've made movies that I thought were okay, but then I was very good. And sometimes you're in a movie and you think, 'I wish more people saw that' - because you're good. And it just works out that the movie gets lost. But that's show business.
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
Onstage I have a natural chutzpa that audiences like. I'm out there.
Christopher Walken
Sometimes a certain innocence is good, but not about yourself.
Christopher Walken
I used to love Danish. My father used to make a Boston cream pie. You never see that anymore.
