Christoph Waltz Quotes

For a while, I couldn’t decide whether or not I should pursue singing in the opera or acting. And I’m glad that I chose the latter because I wasn’t a very good singer Picture Quote #1

It’s easy to not feel misplaced if this tidal wave of appreciation is coming your way Picture Quote #1

I’m not really all that familiar with comic book culture. Not because I’m such a high brow intellectual and bloody European. But it’s just something that I was never into. Not because of any superiority. I don’t know why Picture Quote #1

Mine is studying script and being very academic and trying to be important Picture Quote #1

Becoming an actor is like becoming a father. It’s not hard to become one. Making a life of it is the challenge Picture Quote #1

There’s the beauty of the stage. I don’t like filmed theater or opera because you’re kind of playing soccer in a hockey game. Either or, they don’t do justice to the media and you end up with a hybrid that is purely sensationalistic. Opera is a very theatrical medium that should be seen on a stage with the musicians in the pit in the audience Picture Quote #1

The villain is usually the most interesting part. But it has to be a smart thing. Just dumb cliche villains with a Russian accent and big muscles and a mean face, I don’t know. My Russian accent isn’t that great, and the muscles aren’t that big and the mean face is not enough. You know what I mean? It gets very boring. Tedious stuff Picture Quote #1

You know, I don’t talk about the characters that I play. Years ago, I was a little timid about it and I kind of squirmed when I was asked, ‘Could you tell us something about your character.’ Now with a little self-confidence that comes with the grey beard, I just flatly refuse Picture Quote #1

I used to hate exposure situations. What is generally referred to as ‘red carpet.’ Picture Quote #1

You can’t always do the extraordinary, in between you have to do the ordinary. Because if you didn’t, what would constitute the extraordinary? Picture Quote #1

You get hit over the knuckles enough, you don’t stick them out anymore Picture Quote #1

You need the villain. If you don’t have a villain, the good guy can stay home Picture Quote #1

I only do what I like to do Picture Quote #1

Ten flashing lights are a nuisance but 500 are fantastic Picture Quote #1

If the shoe fits, you must wear it Picture Quote #1

Facts can be so misleading, where rumors, true or false, are often revealing Picture Quote #1

For a while, I couldn’t decide whether or not I should pursue singing in the opera or acting. And I’m glad that I chose the latter because I wasn’t a very good singer Picture Quote #1

It’s the economics, that’s why opera is not dying but gets more and more difficult to put on Picture Quote #1

It’s a wonderful narrative device to bring someone from the outside and look through his eyes if you want to describe the absurdity and preposterous reality that is accepted amongst the ones who are inside Picture Quote #1

Becoming an actor is like becoming a father. It’s not hard to become one. Making a life of it is the challenge Picture Quote #1
