Quotes by Michael Fassbender

• You use words like 'introvert' and 'extrovert,' various traits of a personality.

And how much of it is part of our society now, these phrases, introvert and extrovert, where it actually came from.
• You know, it's amazing. I don't even have a car, would you believe it? I had a motorbike and it got stolen last year. So I've got to buy another one of those, I suppose. I can treat myself to that.
• What I find really interesting is to try and mix it up, to push myself and try different things. I don't want to stay in my comfort zone. I want to take risks and keep myself scared.

• Even if I'm playing a superhero, it has to be steeped in reality.
• Magneto has a whole lot of complexity to him. Emotionally, he's coming from a very damaged place. I like the ambivalence of it. I want the audience leaving the theater wondering, asking the questions themselves rather than being spoon-fed like a lot of these super-villain characters.
