I've been extremely happy and fortunate in terms of what I've achieved and the experiences I've been given.

Toni Collette

I really only take roles that I love and that I have some kind of innate compulsion or need to tell that story. Although it's almost like I have no control over it. It's like they choose me.

Toni Collette

Oh, I definitely want to direct. I have young children. My job is already big enough, and I imagine it will be even more so as a director, and I don't want to miss out on them growing up. I'm going to wait until they're a bit older before I leap into that seat.

Toni Collette

I grew up watching a lot of American television and so the American sound has been in my psyche somehow for a long time and is quite familiar and so that does make it easier.

Toni Collette

We were just covered in dirt the whole time. It was so hot - and that was in winter. I can not imagine what it's like in summer and how the people who actually live out there survive.

Toni Collette

In a lot of films, forever it's been boy-meets-girl, and thank God for films like - I know it's going to sound ridiculous - 'Frozen.' I was so excited for my daughter to be able to watch a love story between two sisters instead of some stupid prince.

Toni Collette

There are actors who are really fantastically talented at being natural on screen and appearing to be themselves, but I like the challenge of becoming somebody else.

Toni Collette

The way a character looks reflects what's on the inside. I can make myself look really bad, and I can make myself look kind of gorgeous. It's not about me; it's about the character.

I guess in Australia every film is sort of an indie film because there are no studios.

Toni Collette

An accent in a way can be an entry into a character.

Toni Collette

I kind of realized I could sing, so I played around with that for a while. And that led me to acting in itself, which I came more passionate about by the age of 15.

Toni Collette

To tell you the truth, my father says I came out of the womb literally singing and dancing, as though there was a spotlight on me. When I ask what I was like when I was little, they just say 'loud.'

Toni Collette

I don't mind where I work, it's really nice to be able to travel around and taste the flavours of different countries.

When I look at a character, I never look at the size of the role. I always look at the whole person, no matter how much they're featured in the movie.

I played a lot of mothers before I even became a mother. It wasn't like I set out to be some sort of mother crusader.

Toni Collette

I'm a fan of music, some rock music. But I like many types of music. But I suppose a kind of longstanding love of specific bands would be Radiohead, Wilco, Neil Young, Tom Waits, REM.

Toni Collette

I prefer comedies when they come from a dark kind of place and have a reality to it.

Toni Collette

My plan is to have no plan. If you know what plan you have, life has its own ideas and will take you in any direction it pleases. So my idea about life is to just be open to it and to go with the flow and go with my gut.

Lars Von Trier is a genius. Every film he makes is so honest and powerful.

I think being the conventional beauty is limiting, so I'm glad I'm not that. If I looked different, I wouldn't have the great opportunities I've had.

Toni Collette

I'm very happy with my lot. I like the variety I get. You don't want to spend your life repeating yourself. It's true of any kind of artist, you want to explore as wide and far as you can go, so that's what I've been trying to do.

Toni Collette

People are so fearful about opening themselves up. All you want to do is to be able to connect with other people. When you connect with other people, you connect with something in yourself. It makes you feel happy. And yet it's so scary - it makes people feel vulnerable and unsafe.

Toni Collette

The people who are most attractive to me are those who feel most comfortable in their skin - there's a sense of self-acceptance.
