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
Image
I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away.
Heath Ledger

If you make decisions based upon people's reactions or judgments then you make really boring choices.
Heath Ledger
Image
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
Image
I generally don't think most situations can be labeled as black or white.
Heath Ledger

I'm in control of my life, not anyone in Hollywood.

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.
