More quotes by Heath Ledger
You learn more about yourself through your child, I guess.
Heath Ledger
Don't let anyone ever make you feel you don't deserve what you want.
Heath Ledger
I like to do something I fear.
Heath Ledger
It's odd, that's why I don't like telling people I played field hockey. It's real big in Australia for guys. But I say I played in America, and everybody goes, 'Oh, you girl!'
Heath Ledger
There is no Yoda-there's no one who points you in the right direction. You've got to figure that out by yourself.
Heath Ledger
I'm not a big fan of western movies and I really don't like cowboy-indian movies. I have never watched them.
Heath Ledger
Nobody panics when things go “according to plan”. Even if the plan is horrifying!
Heath Ledger
From 18 to 22, I was alone, living in L.A. with a bunch of friends, partying.
Heath Ledger
My mom and my dad never pushed me into performing. They never prohibited me from trying anything, or being anything. They never restricted me in any way. For which I'll be forever grateful.
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
But the paparazzi are quite malicious and vocal and really rude, ... And they camped outside of my house, so I started throwing eggs at them, lobbing them at rocks next to them.
Heath Ledger
I feel like I'm wasting time if I repeat myself.
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
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.
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
I'm shy. People get confused. They think as an actor you can get up and be confident on the screen. Why aren't you like this in normal life? Why can't you act in your social life? 'Because I can't!'
Heath Ledger
Had I listened to my agent, I'd be running around in tights, climbing buildings and stuff.
Heath Ledger
I love acting. Oh, God, I love it. But all this fame and all this bullshit attention. I'm not supernatural. I've done nothing extremely special to deserve the position. It happens every couple of years, and it's happened to hundreds of people before me.
Heath Ledger
You have to be willing to be manipulated in the first place because you can either recognize that in your director and then fight it because you don't trust them, but I'm not going to let them manipulate me. Or you think they're on to something and that they're manipulating something out of you which is interesting and new.
Heath Ledger
Growing up in Australia, you never feel like you're going to live beyond that place. You wake up and you go to the beach, and you do your homework. You're just a kid.
