More quotes by Heath Ledger
The Oscars are a really strange concept to me, that films and acting can be competing against each other. We're not running the same race. It's like we're all doing different sports in fact.
Heath Ledger
I feel like I've never been in a film that people have liked before.
Heath Ledger
I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices - it reflects on who I am.
Heath Ledger
If having true love and love that is expressive and free outside of work affects a project where you have to be restrained and in denial and fixed and closed off. This doesn't mean you go out and just destroy your love outside of your life and kind of mirror your movie.
Heath Ledger
It's like anything in life, visualizing the old man you're going to become: As long as you have a clear picture of that - the life you want to lead - eventually you'll probably get there.
Heath Ledger
I feel like I'm wasting time if I repeat myself.
Heath Ledger
The Joker is a psychopathic, mass-murdering, schizophrenic clown with zero empathy. Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night. I couldn't stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.
Heath Ledger
I never really cared much for Hollywood or movies. But the curiosity for filmmaking, and expanding myself as an actor and my curiosity for people and portraying them, just has grown. And that's from simply being involved in the industry. But it was never a goal of mine as a kid.
Heath Ledger
I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away.
Heath Ledger
Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I’m an agent of chaos, and you know the thing about chaos? It's fair.
Heath Ledger
From 18 to 22, I was alone, living in L.A. with a bunch of friends, partying.
Heath Ledger
Nobody panics when things go “according to plan”. Even if the plan is horrifying!
Heath Ledger
I'm just not one of those naturally funny, relaxed actors who enjoy the spotlight and are so good at it.
Heath Ledger
The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.
Heath Ledger
Don't let anyone ever make you feel you don't deserve what you want.
Heath Ledger
People generally express more in between their sentences when they're not speaking. Words are usually there to disguise who someone is or what they're feeling.
Heath Ledger
I think the most common cause of insomnia is simple its loneliness.
Heath Ledger
I like to do something I fear.
Heath Ledger
When anything is blocking my head or there's worry in my life, I just go sit on Mars or something and look back here at Earth. All you can see is this tiny speck. You don't see the fear. You don't see the pain. You don't see thought. It's just one solid speck. Then nothing really matters. It just doesn't.
Heath Ledger
The first memory I have, anyway, I guess - I think it was my second birthday and the cake came out with the candles and I was very excited and I was, like, Oh! A cake! and then my cousin blew out the candles. I was so disappointed. It just broke my heart. And so that's stamped in my brain.
