Carrie-Anne Moss

“Are you gonna fuel your faith or fuel your fear? I'm all about fueling my faith, especially when it's hard to do so.”

“If you think about 'The Matrix' and how high-concept it was, it had these incredible ideas that really penetrated people's consciousness. It really was a film of awakening. I think a lot of people woke up around that film.”

“You'll have a guy, and they're aging however they're aging, and nobody really cares. If you're a woman, it's different.”

“Parenting takes a lot of creativity, and I embrace it fully.”

“'Field of Dreams' made me realize that I wanted to live my dreams, to risk things for what I felt and what I dreamt of.”

“To experience life you have to kind of face a lot of fears.”

“I've had moments where it's like being in the Matrix.”

“I grew up in a very middle-class life. I'm grateful for it - it has given me a lot of stability.”

“I just can't stand the sound of my voice sometimes, or how my face looks. There are always a few times at every premiere when I just have to cover my eyes when I'm up there.”

“When I was younger and I was getting older, I remember thinking that if I couldn't do it gracefully, then I would have to quit. You know, looking at yourself aging onscreen, it can bring up stuff. It's one thing to be aging in a job where your looks don't matter, but as an actress, it's so much part of your image.”

“When you play a doctor, you have to look like you can do it but you don't actually go and do it. It's not like you learn how to cut open somebody and go do surgery. You have to think of a human being and not play the idea of what that would look like.”

“In real life, I'm the kind of person that if I use Siri, I thank her afterwards.”

“אני חושבת שחלומות חשובים כדי לעורר אותנו לקום מהמיטה בכל בוקר.”

“זה מאוד קשה ומאתגר מאוד להיות אישה בקולנוע ובטלוויזיה. עצם ההופעה בעסק הזה מאלצת אותך להכיר את עצמך. אבל למדתי איך להתמודד עם דחייה ולהיות נוקשת כשעבדתי כדוגמנית – זה לימד אותי איך לשים את עצמי בחוץ. במובן מסוים, תקופת הדוגמנות שלי הייתה הכנה לחיים.”

“אני נוטה לגלם דמויות חזקות ואנשים פשוט מניחים שהייתי רוצה לשחק בקומדיות רומנטיות, מה שאשמח לעשות, אבל יש נשים אחרות שעושות את זה כל כך נהדר והן אולי לא יכלו לעשות את מה שאני עושה.”

“אני אוהבת לספר סיפורים. אני אוהבת דמויות מסובכות ומרובדות, אנשים אמיתיים, שאתה רואה למה הם עושים את מה שהם עושים.”

“I like stories about the world, where we're at. I like to explore humanity. I like to explore my own humanity.”

“Technology is just so fast. As convenient as it is, it's stressing a lot of us out. It's just too much, too quick. And I'm interested in that conversation.”

“Every time I hear about a new show, and I see a show that is being created that is nothing like I've ever thought about, I just get so excited about that expansion. Because I started working when 'L.A. Law' was on. It was lawyers and cops.”

“I think it's great that we're living in a time when everyone is being represented on TV and film.”
