Julia Stiles Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Julia Stiles:

Sometimes I have these abstract ideas and then lose track of myself.

I always feel like a goofy little kid.

Julia Stiles

I wish I could be on 'Politically Incorrect.' Because Bill Maher basically dismisses teenagers, and I think I could give my generation a good name.

Julia Stiles

I love the sun and salt water, which is not good for your skin and therefore not good for your image. I'm terrible about protecting my skin as well.

Julia Stiles

I actually have this fantasy of giving up my cell phone.

Julia Stiles

I was in the video for Cyndi Lauper's 'Sally's Pigeons' when I first started acting.

Julia Stiles

I become so sentimental on planes: I could be watching 'Bridesmaids' and start crying.

Julia Stiles

The best working experiences I've had are with directors who want to create with you while you're on set. I prefer a much freer environment. That's why I'm always trying to mess things up, just to know that I can!

Julia Stiles

I am not a fan of rats or pigeons. In New York City, they have become very confident. When I was a child, you went on the subways, and the rats would stay down on the tracks, but now they hang out on the platform.

I like analyzing human behavior. It's complex. That's what keeps me going.

Julia Stiles

Even after such milestones as Kathryn Bigelow winning an Oscar, there still seem to be few women in leadership roles.

I met this homeless man who had never owned a shirt in his life. He had taken his pants and worn them as a shirt and I thought it was so creative. He was liberated from the conventions of fashion.

Julia Stiles

I like a director who is very observant and is watching what I'm doing and noticing what I'm doing but is giving me time to figure it out. They don't jump right in and give you a note before you've had time to really search on your own with how to do a scene. I like a director that encourages me to be playful.

Julia Stiles

I think women get caught up too much in having a plan - 'I'm going to get married at this age; I'm going to have a kid at this age' - and then they just try to find a guy who will fit into that picture. I don't want my life to be based on that.

Julia Stiles

Of course my family and friends are incredibly valuable to me. They keep me sane, they teach me things and I love spending time with them. I think that ranking what you value is a sort of western and linear way of looking at things.

Julia Stiles

I so find Harold Pinter and David Mamet's writing to be exciting, and obviously there aren't that many female - at least with Mamet, there aren't that many good female roles. But I always thought it would be interesting to play one of the guy roles.

Julia Stiles

Sometimes I have these abstract ideas and then lose track of myself.

Julia Stiles

I am a big fan of horror movies but I had never thought that I had wanted to act in one because I don't think that actors get to do much in them. They're usually just reacting.

Julia Stiles

I think audiences, producers and directors included, develop crushes on actors (actresses in particular) and then lose interest and move on to the next one.

Julia Stiles

The true test of a relationship is traveling together.

Julia Stiles

My musician friends could always practice what they loved doing, but I can't go on a street corner and start reciting a monologue. Acting is very collaborative, and you always need other people with you - mainly an audience.

Julia Stiles

I have pessimistic moments when I think I should go on a diet because people are paying money to see movies with exceptional-looking actresses. But being in college has helped me realize that the best thing I can do is to feel good about myself and forget about other people's standards.

Julia Stiles

I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don't do anything that outlandish anyway.

Julia Stiles

My mother always taught me to think about things from other people's perspectives and think about where they're coming from.

Julia Stiles

I pretty much grew up in public.

Julia Stiles

It's actually really great to be a student and an actor, because I get to do this job that I love, then just when I think my head might explode, I get to go to school where they don't really care about what magazine cover I'm on.

Julia Stiles

I watch comedies most of the time. That's what I gravitate toward. But I think the kinds of roles people see me in are sort of the opposite of that. I'm not really sure why.

Julia Stiles

I was gonna throw the first pitch at a Mets game, but there was a rain delay. So I'm waiting for it to stop, and the team's manager, Willie Randolph, comes by. Now he's already intimidating to begin with. But he comes over to me and says, 'If you screw this up, they will boo you.' And I said 'Thanks.'

Julia Stiles

My parents always stressed finding some sort of creative outlet, so they would take me to dance classes, take me to jazz clubs.

Julia Stiles

There are a handful of actors who sustain interest because it's exciting to watch them get better at what they do. I want to be one of those actors.

Julia Stiles

I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces.

Julia Stiles

I tend to shut myself off from people. It's gotten harder and harder for me to meet new people. It takes a lot of effort to open up to them and spend time with them.

Julia Stiles

I went to a Chekhov play with my grandmother, and at the end, I was talking about how the first act was so boring. And my grandmother didn't see that at all. I realized it was because I need, like, the constant images changing. I wrote a paper about this.

Julia Stiles

I love baseball. As a teenager, I was a contrarian and picked the underdog instead of just rooting for the Yankees. It's a hard team to root for, but there's something that always keeps me hopeful.

Julia Stiles

So I am happy to have fans, especially if it enables me to keep working. And I am really grateful when people respond to my work.

Julia Stiles

I don't naturally have a good metabolism, but I am lucky in that I am naturally drawn to healthy food.

Julia Stiles

When I'm working, I need to be pretty disciplined, but I do like to enjoy my food. I like to keep it fresh and wholesome. Preparing your own food can be a great way to unwind.
