“I'm not one of those women who thinks beauty is a curse.”
“What counts in Hollywood is box office. It doesn't really matter what people think of you as an actor because, as long as you have been in a movie that has made money, you will always get another job.”
“I think Charlize Theron is just as good when she is looking really pretty in a movie as when she gains 10 pounds and puts on a nose. I applaud her - good for her that she doesn't care. But she's just as good, whether she's pretty or not.”
“I see myself raising my children in Europe, probably in Paris.”
“I think they went with the idea that people know the story pretty much- knowing that he's going to take her when she's going to go with him. Also, the movie is really focused on Achilles and Hector and their battles.”
“Yeah, to me, acting is very therapeutic. I get out a lot of anger and frustration.”
“When I was younger - it might be a romantic idea - I always thought I might go crazy.”
“My sport is biking. I'm not much of a gym person, but I like being outside - hiking, canoeing, camping.”
“I have three goddaughters - I'm not sure why they trust me, because I have no experience with children - but I try.”
“It must have been so impossible to think about it and dare to do that, so they feel compassionate for her. I don't think the movie would work otherwise.”
“For exercise, I tend to like the outdoors. In Paris, I rent a bike in the street and cycle around, and in L.A. I live up in the hills so I go hiking a lot. I like to stay fit by being generally active.”
“I grew up loving actresses or actors who were very classy but who seemed a little bit mysterious because you couldn't grasp what they're really thinking. I mean, Grace Kelly always looked impossibly glamorous, yet you could always see there was something behind her eyes.”
“I'm very independent. I'm not sure how I'd deal with someone who wanted to be with me 24/7.”
“I don't want to let my life as a woman pass me by. There's a time to work, there's a time to be young and crazy, and there should be a time to enjoy motherhood. I'm actually looking forward to that.”
“כשאתה נשוי, יש לך מחויבות לבעל שלך, וכשחקן קשה לשמור על המחויבות הזאת, כי אתה כל הזמן מצטלם במקומות שונים בעולם, אחרי שנפרדתי מגיום, הבנתי שאני מעכשיו אחראית לעצמי, ואין לי רגשי אשמה על כך שאני עסוקה בקריירה, והשינוי הזה משתקף באיכות העבודה שלי.”
“אני יכולה לגור בכל מקום, לפעמים אני רואה כוכבים שנלכדים בבועה של זוהר וראוותנות. לי זה לא מתאים. זה תלוי באישיות שלך ובאיזה סוג של חיים אתה רוצה לחוות. האם אתה רוצה להיות מבודד או לא.”
“הלאומנות הלבנה גואה בכל מקום.”
“I went to a Catholic school, and I just rebelled.”
“Berlin is still going through a transition since the Cold War - both in what used to be East and West Berlin. I can still sense the confusion and the struggle for identity there in the streets. There's a pulse to it.”
“I don't have to work just to work anymore. More interesting parts come my way, so I can afford to say, 'I don't want to make that.'”
