The only thing that I'm obsessed with is sleeping, and actually, it is more than an obsession, it is a pleasure.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Nuclear apocalypse-who do you need? Actors are probably not top of the list. What can I do for you? I can pretend to be somebody who can grow you some nice crops.
Quote by -Christian Bale
You say something bad about Newsies and you have an awful lot of people to answer to.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I seek … the means to fight injustice. To turn fear against those who prey on the fearful.
Quote by -Christian Bale
In honesty, there are probably a lot of stories that can be told with Batman. I like the idea of him growing older and he can't quite do it as much anymore.
Quote by -Christian Bale
And being as I'm somebody who loves movies like The Machinist, I also love going along to big mass entertainment movies. I get in the mood for all kinds of movies, and so I like to try each of them.
Quote by -Christian Bale
It's tough to make a good movie. I think the bigger the movies are, the worse they are. A lot of big movies make a lot of money and you kind of forget about what they are and they don't really make you think.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I want to do good work. I want the opportunity to work with good people, and the only way I'm gonna do that is to commit 110% - you get out what you put in.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I'll find myself having dinner with people and someone will mention something and I will say I was in that situation once. Then I'll say, forget it, it was a scene I was in. That can get to be quite confusing.
Quote by -Christian Bale
The risk element only came from acknowledging other people's attitudes toward it, and realizing that they considered it to be a risk for me to do.
Quote by -Christian Bale
As an actor, I don't feel like it's necessary to watch a great deal of films. In fact, I think it can lead to imitation and unhealthy competition, which just isn't needed.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Sometimes the truth isn't good enough. Sometimes people have got to have their faith rewarded.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I swear, the bigger your muscles get, the duller you are. You become fascinated with carbs and protein and ripped abs and things that are just not interesting at all.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Look, I've got incredible pride for my family. I've absolutely fallen into that cliche of a dad who could just happily talk about my daughter endlessly.
Quote by -Christian Bale
It was just the two of us, inside there with just mirrors, all the way around us. Everywhere we looked, there were these two freaks, sitting at a table, eyeballing each other.
Quote by -Christian Bale
You're creating a different world and the actor's job is to be able to convince the audience to enter into that world, whether it be actually something that you recognize from your own life or not.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I'm not really looking forward to wearing a black rubber suit in the summertime in humid Chicago. If you see a pool of sweat through the city, follow it and you will find me.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I would have been very happy just cruising around and enjoying the unexpected. I've never been ambitious.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Planning a career, I always find a tricky thing, because I don't have much of a plan, really.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I think mostly it's the adventure that I will have in making the movie. That's what I look for.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I'm English. Our dentistry is not world famous. But I made sure I got moldings of my old teeth beforehand because I miss them.
Quote by -Christian Bale
It's a wonderful thing when your trainer is actually the person you're playing.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I become a bit of a blank page in public. And that's precisely why I like acting.
Quote by -Christian Bale
If you're smart you're just gonna be all about the work. But as a young person, you want to going out to clubs and doing all the stuff. I'm just glad I survived it.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Essentially, I'm untrained, so I just go with my imagination and try to put myself as solidly as I can into the shoes of whatever person I'm going to be playing.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I quite like it when you're working with people and you only get to know them through the scenes that you're doing together.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I don't get it when you get so much openness about the way movies are made, and the special effects and the behind-the-scenes stuff and all of that. I can't help but feel like this reduces it a little bit.
Quote by -Christian Bale
There's a level of confidence in the actor you're working with that really helps a lot. It makes all the difference.
Quote by -Christian Bale
For me, I think the harder the shoot, the more I feel like I'm enjoying myself.
Quote by -Christian Bale
You get those occasional moments when you're absolutely calm, and you've just done something that would have scared you shitless earlier that day, and you've just done it like it was nothing. I find that very relaxing.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I certainly liked performing [Patrick Bateman], but it was because he thinks he's so [bloody] cool and just the [stuff], but is really such a cheesy dork.
Quote by -Christian Bale
'Batman' took 10 months to film, and by the time I stopped working on it, it took a long time before my English accent came out again. I was actually having to try for it.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I don't think I'm like any of the characters I've played. They're all really far from who I am.
Quote by -Christian Bale
I've always felt that I would rather see an actor, writer, or musician's work, rather than actually know the person. If you know too much about an artist, it somehow lessens their ability to do their work as well.
Quote by -Christian Bale
After the modest success of my first film, I found it very daunting to have to live with that kind of burden of expectations.
Quote by -Christian Bale
My hope is that people will be repulsed by the character's complete lack of ethics and obsession with consumerism - that's what I was saying about the difference between the character's message and the film's message.
Quote by -Christian Bale
Directors go their whole career without being able to tell personal stories and to work with a cast as talented as they are.
Quote by -Christian Bale
You're creating a different world and the actor's job is to be able to convince the audience to enter into that world, whether it be actually something that you recognize from your own life or not.
Quote by -Christian Bale
It's the actors who are prepared to make fools of themselves who are usually the ones who come to mean something to the audience.
Quote by -Christian Bale
In terms of the romantic kind of lead, I just never enjoy those movies very much. Maybe they'll come to interest me more as I get older. I doubt it, but maybe. Romantic comedies tend to be, for me, an oxymoron.
Quote by -Christian Bale
In everyday life, my wife is the most wonderful. We're in love with each other beyond belief.
