Jodie Foster Quotes

Caitriona Balfe, who is Irish, is also in my movie. I asked her to play her Irish accent in the movie, but her own brogue is so faint that I had to keep pumping it up Picture Quote #1

Well, I certainly was exposed to and learned to appreciate the work of great directors early on. As a kid, my mother used to take me to see really interesting arty films in Los Angeles Picture Quote #1

I want to thank some very special people without whom I would not be here today. George Bush, sarah Palin and the Pope. When I came to Hollywood in 1983, I had one dream - to sleep with Jodie Foster. That didn’t work out, but this is nice, too Picture Quote #1

Even Helen Keller, who was born blind and deaf, could see God. No doubt, in her silent darkness, every fragrant flower, every ray of the warm sun, every taste that touched her tongue told her that there was a God who created all things. Jodie Foster shouldn’t therefore be surprised that people are surprised that she’s an atheist Picture Quote #1

I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They’re just, like, the greatest ever Picture Quote #1

I love the way L A. leaves you alone. I can go home, read all day, and nobody bugs me Picture Quote #1

I was never the ingenue or the pretty girlfriend of Tom Cruise in a movie. I didn’t have that career, so I don’t have to compete on that level Picture Quote #1

Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock do romantic comedies. I do dark dramas. I do these movies well Picture Quote #1

My mom was always late. It drove me crazy as a child. So I’m always on time - or early Picture Quote #1

I don’t like it when reviews aren’t about the movie. When they’re about how much money somebody made, or who they’re sleeping with, or if they got the job via some connection, or about how Fox is putting X amount of dollars into it Picture Quote #1

I had a prodigious life, living in a grown-up world when I was a child. But I think my abilities were about perceptiveness, and they were about examining psychology and examining people and relationships Picture Quote #1

If I make two movies my entire life, and they’re two movies that - whether they make a lot of money or two people go to see them - they speak of me, then I consider them incredibly successful. I don’t need to be Steven Spielberg Picture Quote #1

In a weird way, that’s the beauty of being an actor. You get to live out things that you’re afraid of, and you get to say, ‘Well, maybe I can get to the end of it and survive it intact and I can be the hero of my own story.’ It’s kind of a way of exorcising fear Picture Quote #1

With ‘Taxi Driver,’ I had this eureka moment. I realized that acting could be much more than what I had been doing. I had to build a character that wasn’t me Picture Quote #1

Everyone always says, ‘Kristen got ‘Panic Room’ because she looks like Jodie Foster.’ But it was actually Nicole Kidman who was supposed to play my mother Picture Quote #1

If you had been a public figure from the time you were a toddler, if you’d had to fight for a life that felt real and honest and normal against all odds, than maybe to you might value privacy above all else. I have given everything up there from the time that I was three-years old. That’s reality show enough, don’t you think? Picture Quote #1

I absolutely love religions and the rituals. Even though I don’t believe in God, we celebrate pretty much every religion in our family with the kids Picture Quote #1

There is no direct evidence, so how could you ask me to believe in God Picture Quote #1

Being twenty-something is all about taking it in: eating it, drinking it, and spitting out the seeds later. It’s about being fearless, and stupid, and dangerous, and unfocused, and abandoned. It’s about being in it, not on top of it Picture Quote #1

I just could just shave my beard, and nobody would recognize me. Although I look like Jodie Foster Picture Quote #1

What the digital age has offered us, in terms of connectivity and transparency, is that all of these people from weird places in the world are all talking to each other, at four in the morning, and are sharing ideas. There’s more openness than has ever been known, so that’s a good thing Picture Quote #1

My definition of a friend is somebody who adores you even though they know the things you’re most ashamed of Picture Quote #1

I spent a lot of time not in school, so I didn’t have deep relationships with kids my own age Picture Quote #1

It’s an interesting combination: Having a great fear of being alone, and having a desperate need for solitude and the solitary experience. That’s always been a tug of war for me Picture Quote #1

I feel at various times in my life that I’ve been at a point where I had to choose between a death sentence and a life sentence. And I want to live. What do I do to live? What do I do to be vital? And the answer is always creativity. The answer is always art Picture Quote #1

I love more than anything looking at a movie scene by scene and seeing the intention behind it. It allows you to really appreciate the hand of the filmmaker Picture Quote #1

How could you ask me to believe in God when there’s absolutely no evidence that I can see? I do believe in the beauty and the awe-inspiring mystery of the science that’s out there that we haven’t discovered yet, that there are scientific explanations for phenomena that we call mystical because we don’t know any better Picture Quote #1

Going back and forth between the press and something like The Crucible must be really crazy and intense Picture Quote #1

As I’ve said before, and I still hold to, I truly am the most boring person alive. And if there was a great investigation to be found at the end of the resume, it would be, the most boring person alive Picture Quote #1

Boys are easy. I mean, there are just a lot of bruises when they’re young. With boys, you get a lot of accidental jabs in the eye and stepping on your feet, and those tantrums they cause when they don’t want to leave the toy store Picture Quote #1
