A lot of people only see me as villains.
Terence Stamp

Also for me it was different because I play a lot of villains and in this one I play a dad and I play a good guy, basically. He's the Secretary of the Treasury. I never had a job like that.
Christopher Walken

And I think that when I play these villains, maybe what is different is that the audience sees me play these and they know that that's Chris and he's having fun and he knows that and he knows that and you know that and everybody knows that.
Christopher Walken

Browning's tragedies are tragedies without villains.
Edward Dowden

But you see, I have played more good guys than I have played villains.
Gary Oldman

Damn you villains, who are you? And from whence came you?
Edward Teach

History will tell where I stand in the ranks of Bond villains, I have no control over that.
Rick Yune

I also try very hard to create characters - both heroes and villains - with psychological depth.
Jeffery Deaver

I cannot help thinking that the menace of Hell makes as many devils as the severe penal codes of inhuman humanity make villains.
Lord Byron

I had real plans for my next decade and felt I'd worked hard enough to earn it. Will I really not live to see my children married? To watch the World Trade Center rise again? To read - if not indeed write - the obituaries of elderly villains like Henry Kissinger and Joseph Ratzinger?
Christopher Hitchens

I hate changes of administrations, because I have all my villains in place and they are all taken away and replaced with faceless wonders nobody knows.
Pat Oliphant

I keep attacking the villains, the know-nothings, the people who want to take our freedoms away.
Al Goldstein

I like being a villain. Villains are more exciting.
Judd Nelson

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.
Russell Crowe

I love playing villains.
Alfred Molina

I refer, of course, to the debts our nation has amassed for itself over decades of indulgence. It is the new Red Menace, this time consisting of ink. We can debate its origins endlessly and search for villains on ideological grounds, but the reality is pure arithmetic.
Mitch Daniels

I sometimes find that playing the bad guy, or villains, or psychopaths tend to be much more psychologically rewarding. And you can really push it, you can push the limits, and get away with it.
Sean Bean

I think that sometimes when they see me in a movie they expect me to be something nasty. I mean, I play a lot of villains and you show up and they think maybe... That's why it's good to defy expectations sometimes.
Christopher Walken

I try to give both my heroes and villains an emotional dimensionality which provides the motivation for their actions.
Sidney Sheldon

I've played villains on stage - you know, the Iagos and so on - but I think of myself as a funny person. I mostly did comedies before I did TV work.
Michael Emerson
