More quotes by Michael Fassbender
My goal was for acting to become my main income. I would say to myself, 'I'm good enough'. That became my mantra.
Michael Fassbender
Big things have small beginnings.
Michael Fassbender
I think that idea of alienation, for whatever reason, is still very prevalent within our society and a lot of people deal with it - most people deal with it at some point in their life unless they're sort of the golden child. I think that's something that we all need to address.
Michael Fassbender
I could never swim in the ocean after seeing Jaws.
Michael Fassbender
I’m aware of my weaknesses and THE BEAST WITHIN.
Michael Fassbender
I try my best to find variety in what I'm doing, but there's a lot out there that's the same.
Michael Fassbender
[As an actor] I have ideas, but things should always be fluid. You should always be ready to follow an instinct. Something might reveal itself on the day.
Michael Fassbender
Why not provoke some thought and get people talking about things? I like characters that are flawed because we all are. When people break up in a script, you think, Oh, right, there must be tears shed here. But maybe the fact of the matter is that they're both laughing.
Michael Fassbender
If I'm playing a murderer, I don't go out and start murdering people.
Michael Fassbender
When I was four, I just wanted to drive, I collected toy cars. Where does that sort of thing come from? In hindsight you go, 'Oh, liked it because of this.' Maybe it's just the wheel.
Michael Fassbender
If there's friends around, I'll cook. Or if I have a girlfriend. But on my own I kind of fell out of the habit of it, and it's a shame really because I know it's good for me. It's something quite therapeutic.
Michael Fassbender
The arts are very alive in Ireland, so that had its influence on me. But I consider myself European, really.
Michael Fassbender
I'm not going to talk about my private life with a total stranger, unless I feel like I need to. Why would I? I don't.
Michael Fassbender
Nowadays, especially in big commercial films it's much easier for the audience, and they tend to get spoonfed. It's much more interesting to me, people leave the theater and they start asking themselves questions and find their own moral compass about what these characters have been doing.
Michael Fassbender
I'm always interested in trying to investigate different personalities. I want to keep myself guessing and keep the fear element alive, so that I don't get too comfortable.
Michael Fassbender
Trying to identify and understand, as opposed to judging, is very important for me, in approaching characters.
Michael Fassbender
As an actor, it's always been good to be working at all.
Michael Fassbender
Any good kitchen should be stocked up in oysters, shouldn't they?
Michael Fassbender
The actors I looked up to when I was a teenager, they all just disappeared into different characters.
Michael Fassbender
Why does a three-year-old, and it's usually boys, want to drive the tractor or have machinery and be in control of it? I don't know. Why wouldn't you ask to boil a kettle or something? Maybe you would, I dunno.
