Heath Ledger
Image
I'm just not one of those naturally funny, relaxed actors who enjoy the spotlight and are so good at it.
Heath Ledger
Image
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
Image
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.

I sat around in a hotel room in London for about a month, locked myself away, formed a little diary and experimented with voices - it was important to try to find a somewhat iconic voice and laugh.

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
Image
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
Image
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.

I think the most common cause of insomnia is simple its loneliness.
Heath Ledger
Image
I'm born to be a father. And I've been looking forward to this all my life.
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
Image
I think your personal evolution runs hand in hand with your professional evolution. Performance and the person you are kind of grow simultaneously.
Heath Ledger
Image
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.
