More quotes by Heath Ledger
Had I listened to my agent, I'd be running around in tights, climbing buildings and stuff.
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'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
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
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
My life is together, both professionally and socially.
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
I'm an extremely private dude and all this is happening so damn quick. I really haven't had any time to rationalize it. But it's nothing that I'm going to let freak me out or take control of me or my thoughts or my real life.
Heath Ledger
Nobody panics when things go “according to plan”. Even if the plan is horrifying!
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
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
From 18 to 22, I was alone, living in L.A. with a bunch of friends, partying.
Heath Ledger
I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices - it reflects on who I am.
Heath Ledger
I'm sure drugs and alcohol perhaps would inspire new thoughts, but it's certainly not something that I use as a tool or a mechanism to create.
Heath Ledger
I feel like I've never been in a film that people have liked before.
Heath Ledger
I believe that whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you... stranger.
Heath Ledger
There's nothing like working with your mates - it's the way it should be, as far as I'm concerned.
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
I'm born to be a father. And I've been looking forward to this all my life.
