Zitat des Tages von Heath Ledger:
I like to do something I fear.
It's kind of a rule of thumb for me to self-doubt going into any kind of project. I always think that I shouldn't be doing it and I don't know how to do it and I'm going to fail and that I fooled them. I always try to find a way out.
I'm not good at future planning. I don't plan at all. I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow. I don't have a day planner and I don't have a diary. I completely live in the now, not in the past, not in the future.
I do keep pre-occupied.
Anyone that has a job that takes them away from home, I think, can understand the difficulties in maintaining consistency, not only with your family and those you love but with your friends.
If you're just safe about the choices you make, you don't grow.
I am not a public speaker and never will be.
If you make decisions based upon people's reactions or judgments then you make really boring choices.
In a way, I was spoon-fed, if you will, a career. It was fully manufactured by a studio that believed that they could put me on their posters and turn me into their bottle of Coca-Cola, their product.
You know, I'm not in a hurry, and everybody else in Hollywood - particularly agents and managers - they're all in a hurry.
Had I listened to my agent, I'd be running around in tights, climbing buildings and stuff.
I'm kind of addicted to moving.
I don't know, as long as I get to evolve and grow as an actor and as a person, that's the stuff I'm after.
I didn't want to raise my child in Hollywood.
I'm in control of my life, not anyone in Hollywood.
I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away.
I love acting and I have a lot of fun.
I feel like I've never been in a film that people have liked before.
I like to set up obstacles and defeat them.
I apologize for my terrible interview skills.
I feel like I'm wasting time if I repeat myself.
From 18 to 22, I was alone, living in L.A. with a bunch of friends, partying.
I felt like my career was out of my hands.
I'm happy without money.
When I first started acting, I was just crap.
In order not to hold a frame with someone, you have to be intimidated by them.
I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices - it reflects on who I am.
I generally don't think most situations can be labeled as black or white.
It's rare that there's a role that requires an Australian accent.
I never want to feel like I've achieved my goal. It's like Chinese farmers. They never admit that it's a good season. They feel like they'll be punished.
