Quotes by Christopher Lee

Christopher Lee

Every actor has to make terrible films from time to time, but the trick is never to be terrible in them.

Film

Inspirational

Films are now made by accountants. They pick a pretty young female or male face out of the air and give them a part – not because they think that person is right for it or is ready for it, but because they think that person will make them money.

Inspirational

Thinking

I associate heavy metal with fantasy because of the tremendous power that the music delivers.

I did radio, I did television, I did opera, I did films in which I had very, very little to say. But I had a lot of experience in front of the camera, and that’s what really counts.

Opera

Television

I don’t play long parts. They must be short parts, but they’ve got to be parts that mean something, that matter, where people will notice when I’m on the screen, and people will remember the character after they’ve seen the film.

Play

I dont want to sound gloomy, but, at some point of your lives, every one of you will notice that you have in your life one person, one friend whom you love and care for very much. That person is so close to you that you are able to share some things only with him. For example, you can call that friend, and from the very first maniacal laugh or some other joke you will know who is at the other end of that line. We used to do that with him so often. And then when that person is gone, there will be nothing like that in your life ever again.

Inspirational

Laughing

Sound

I have been metal all my life, only I did not know about it. The people in this album (Charlemagne) and I, share the same values.

I stopped appearing as Dracula in 1972 because in my opinion the presentation of the character had deteriorated to such an extent, particularly bringing him into the contemporary day and age, that it really no longer had any meaning.

Opinion

I think acting is a mixture of instinct, imagination and inventiveness. All you can learn as an actor is basic technique.

Acting

Imagination

Thinking

I was always fascinated by fairy stories, fantasy, you know, demons, necromancers, gods and goddesses, everything that is out of our kin and out of our everyday world. I was always interested in enchantment and magicians and still am.
