Anti Hero Quotes

Lou Reed was a hero because he was an anti-hero Picture Quote #1

I’m always attracted to anti-hero roles Picture Quote #1

I think, generally, the flawed anti-hero is much more interesting than the normal hero, and that’s really what we’re talking about here as it relates to outlaws or renegades Picture Quote #1

The anti-hero has played an important role in the history of mankind, so much so that the whole ethos of what is good and bad has become blurred Picture Quote #1

A lot of characters now on TV have moved into being anti-heroes, but I wanted to be the hero Picture Quote #1

Everyone likes a bit of variety. I’m sure none of my readers only want to read about anti-heroes or villainous protagonists any more than they only want to read about square-jawed heroes doing the right thing. I just write characters than entertain me and hope they’ll be ones that other people want to read about, too Picture Quote #1

I’ve made a career writing about fictitious anti-heroes. To create these worlds, I’ve spent a lot of time with active members on both sides of the law. And if I had to pick the most interesting of the two, the choice is obvious - we all love the guys in black Picture Quote #1

The myth of Good Guys and Bad Guys is one of the most pervasive we own, and morally grey anti-heroes are simply one of modern fiction’s attempts to shake off that mythology and replace it with something a bit more honest Picture Quote #1

There’s a trend toward anti-heroes now, and I think it goes back to guys like Bogart and Cagney. They seemed to have no compassion, and they were always alone Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in anti-heroes. Duke Wayne played a mean guy but never an anti-hero Picture Quote #1

We lost faith in authority in the 50s, up to a point, and we spawned a lot of anti-heroes in movies, which were refreshing and open. But at this point, with the distrust that’s there and the disillusionment with leadership that is so acute, we need some kind of a focus on taking the irony out and taking the anti-hero element away Picture Quote #1

I think it’s doubly important, now that we see so many people failing. When the norm is an anti-hero, there’s a serious loss when you cannot portray a decent person on screen without it becoming slightly sentimental or feeling like it’s unrealistic Picture Quote #1

Paul Newman would have been a much more important star if he hadn’t always tried to be an anti-hero, to show the human feet of clay Picture Quote #1

I went to film school so I have a writing and directing background, and I think a lot of the material I’m interested in writing and getting out there is stories about anti-heroes and people you should just not ordinarily root for - trying to figure out a way of appealing to people they wouldn’t normally appeal to Picture Quote #1

The great thing about Burgess’s work is the dichotomy of making the hero or anti-hero an immoral man. And that’s what makes it interesting. Because, you know, you are sucked into kind of like this guy Picture Quote #1

I don’t play the role of a villain, really, but I like playing anti-hero kind of roles. I like characters where there’s conflict, drama, and more personal investment than just being heroes Picture Quote #1

Comic book fans have loved Wolverine, and all the ‘X-Men’ characters, for more than the action. I think that’s what set it apart from many of the other comic books. In the case of Wolverine, when he appeared, he was a revolution really. He was the first anti-hero Picture Quote #1

It’s fair to say that, by ‘X-Men 3,’ Wolverine had gone a little soft, and I agree with them there. What fans love about Wolverine is his more uncompromising approach to life. He is who he is. He’s not always a nice guy. He has got edge. He’s an anti-hero. And, there’s also a vulnerability in there. There is conflict and battles going on in there Picture Quote #1

I don't think the Hulk is a superhero. He's the first Marvel character who is a tragic monster. Really an anti-hero Picture Quote #1
