We are starting off with our own different characters and our own laws and everything, looking at Bruce Wayne and how he came to be the person that he was and how he comes to be this man that jumps around in the Bat suit.

CHRISTIAN BALEPeople need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy and I can’t do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man I’m flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed, but as a symbol, as a symbol I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting.
CHRISTIAN BALEWorking out is incredibly boring. I swear it’s true that the bigger your muscles get, the fewer brain cells you have.
CHRISTIAN BALEThere are occasions when I’ve pretended to be in a firefight, and then there are people who have really been in a firefight. Clearly it’s absolutely ridiculous, and even disrespectful, to suggest that I understand what that is.
CHRISTIAN BALEI seek the means to fight injustice. To turn fear against those who prey on the fearful.
CHRISTIAN BALEThe interesting thing about a movie is the movie.
CHRISTIAN BALEYou’ll hunt me. You’ll condemn me. Set the dogs on me. Because that’s what needs to happen. Because sometimes truth isn’t good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.
CHRISTIAN BALEI like being responsible for myself.
CHRISTIAN BALEI tend to think you’re fearless when you recognize why you should be scared of things, but do them anyway.
CHRISTIAN BALEI do like taking stuff seriously that a lot of people look at as nonsense. I enjoy the insanity of that. And I like the commitment that is needed for that.
CHRISTIAN BALEAn actor should never be larger than the film he’s in.
CHRISTIAN BALEI like the idea of movies having a magic element. How many times have you seen an actor in a movie who you know only as the character? It’s wonderful, isn’t it?
CHRISTIAN BALEI find what I do for a living really funny. I mean, acting is kind of a hilarious thing for a grown man to call a job.
CHRISTIAN BALEAll of the muscles were gone, so that was a real tough time of rebuilding all of that. But you have a deadline, you have an obligation. You’ve said that you will commit to this part, and I just can’t live with myself for not really giving it as much as I can.
CHRISTIAN BALEI become a bit of a blank page in public. And that’s precisely why I like acting.
CHRISTIAN BALEIt’s tough to make a good movie. I think the bigger the movies are, the worse they are. A lot of big movies make a lot of money and you kind of forget about what they are and they don’t really make you think.
