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.

More quotes by 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 generally don't think most situations can be labeled as black or white.
Heath Ledger
You learn more about yourself through your child, I guess.
Heath Ledger
I didn't want to raise my child in Hollywood.
Heath Ledger
In order not to hold a frame with someone, you have to be intimidated by them.
Heath Ledger
I believe that whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you... stranger.
Heath Ledger
It's a little uncomfortable doing love scenes in armor, but, you know, when the heat's on, the heat's on.
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
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 born to be a father. And I've been looking forward to this all my life.
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
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
My life is together, both professionally and socially.
Heath Ledger
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
I feel like I've never been in a film that people have liked before.
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
The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.
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
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
Nobody panics when things go “according to plan”. Even if the plan is horrifying!
