Villains are fun. I think the important thing in playing them is that they don't see themselves as villains. It lets you be a little more expansive.
Rhys Ifans
Image
Villains are very, very boring to do. They're so much easier than heroes.
Jeremy Brett
Image
Villains are usually the worst casuists, and rush into crimes to avoid less. Henry VIII. committed murder to avoid the imputation of adultery and in our times, those who commit the latter crime attempt to wash off the stain of seducing the wife by signifying their readiness to shoot the husband.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
Villains are often attractive.
Ken Stott
Image
Villains often more the story along while the heros react to the villains, so the villain becomes the engine of the story.
Michael Scott
Image
Villains are meant to be hated.
Johanna Lindsey

Villains are fun to play.

Villains!' I shrieked. 'Dissemble no more! I admit the deed! Tear up the planks! Here, here! It is the beating of his hideous heart!
Edgar Allan Poe

Villains are undone by what is worst in them, heroes by what is best.
Voltaire
Image
Villains with a conscience have this sad realization of who they are, and the monster they've become — there's a sense of regret. So at the end of these movies there's a dramatic resonance that really stays with the audience.
Thomas Haden Church
Image
Villains are kind of hard to really know on a personal level when you see them as mean, unsensitive-type people.
Wilt Chamberlain

Villains, vipers, damn'd without redemption Dogs, easily won to fawn on any man Snakes in my heart-blood warm'd, that sing my heart Three Judases, each one thrice worse than Judas.
William Shakespeare
Image
A boy is a man in miniature, and though he may sometimes exhibit notable virtue, as well as characteristics that seem to be charming because they are childlike, he is also a schemer, self-seeker, traitor, Judas, crook, and villain - in short, a man.
Robertson Davies
Image
A lot of times I play the villain or the comic relief, and I get to kind of play the comic relief to a degree, which is fun, but I also get to say, You are created in the image in God. You are a perfect child of God. And this part of you is the heart of who you are. You're not alone, and you're okay just the way you are.
Missi Pyle
Image
I'm kind of shocked any time somebody hires me and even more shocked any time somebody hires me to play a character like Lex Luthor, which I only knew from the public consciousness of him being a bald, brooding villain who is older than me.
Jesse Eisenberg
Image
A good man will never suspect his friends of shady actions: this is part of his goodness. A good man will never be suspected by the public of using his goodness to screen villains: this is part of his utility
Bertrand Russell
Image
I like grey characters fantasy for too long has been focused on very stereotypical heroes and villains.
George R. R. Martin

I am a feminist. I'm trying to show the relationships between men and women, always the structural relations, not individual villains. I'd never make a husband a villain. I try very hard in my work not to - because if I made one man a villain, the rest would be off the hook. I'm interested in the system of oppression.

I'm a huge fan of Warner Brothers cartoons. I would spend many hours alone after school watching Daffy Duck. I think Daffy Duck is one of the great comedic villains.
Roger Bart

When you're writing a story or an actor playing a role, you should never think of your characters as heroes or villains. You have to think of them as people first.
Morgan Neville
Image
Life is not simple, and people can't be boxed into being either heroes or villains.
Jessica Hagedorn
Image
One murder makes a villain, millions often a hero.
Bill Vaughan
Image
Without will, without individuals, there are no heroes. But neither are there villains. And the absence of villains is as prostrating, as soul-destroying, as the absence of heroes.
Gertrude Himmelfarb
Image
It was interesting to have humanoid villains that were rooted in our three-dimensional reality... or four dimensional reality, I'm not sure which!
