Zitat des Tages von Kim Cattrall:
I'm not a personality actress. I never have been. I have been a character actress.
Looking good has never been the most important thing to me. Maybe it's because I'm more conventionally, um, acceptable, so it's not an issue for me. I don't know.
That's what life is - you follow where your heart leads you - at least I do.
I think the wonderful thing about doing theater is that it's more of an actor's medium. I think that film is more of a director's medium. You can't edit something out on stage. It's there.
I'm a good businessman. I pay my bills. Growing up in a situation where everything counted helps.
Art is an expression of who you are. Parts that I play are my sculptures.
My experiences in film and theatre in the States have been much more rigorous-in England there's an environment of, Let's try this.
A lot of my life has been lonely. Fantastic, but lonely.
I sort of have a love affair with my work. Many of us work far too hard and we don't put enough value in the epicurean, sensual part of life.
I'm a trisexual. I'll try anything once.
There's still the part of me that wants to leap at every opportunity, but now there's the other side that says, 'Let's just wait a minute and see what happens.' That's intuition, and it comes with age and experience.
I'm certainly not a prude.
I don't express a lot of things that I feel; I kind of register things.
I did a school play when I was 10 where I played a cold germ infecting a whole classroom of kids. The play was called 'Piffle It's Only a Sniffle.' I'd never had so much fun. It was a thrill.
Since doing the show I've been so busy that I've not really had time to mope.
The roles for women in theatre are much better than they are in film.
I like movies I can relate to.
Really rejoice in being yourself. Have your own drumbeat.
If you stick with a vision, it might not all work, but some of it will be absolute genius. To me, 15 minutes worth of absolute genius in a film is so much better than two hours of mediocrity. I would rather pay to see something different like that.
I wanted to understand pain and the human condition, which is full of pain and regret and sadness - and some happiness, if you're lucky.
I don't read reviews because if they're bad I'm devastated and if they're good I get a big head.
Your dressing area should be your private space.
I first wanted to be an actress after seeing a play - not a movie.
I had a great time in my youth and I still feel youthful. I've no desire to look as though I'm in my 20s.
At the beginning of every role I take, I have to start from basics and build it up. It's like a new construction.
I actually think 'Sex and the City' helped share how complicated it all is, to be a wife, a mother, and working, and a sexual being.
I try not to listen to the shoulds or coulds, and try to get beyond expectations, peer pressure, or trying to please - and just listen. I believe all the answers are ultimately within us.
Being a gossip reporter just isn't a respectable job. It'll chew you up and spit you out.
I am not interested in being a Barbie doll and turning myself into a sausage for the next 20 years. I want to follow actresses like Helen Mirren and Judi Dench who have lines on their faces and aren't afraid of playing their age.
Theatre can't be done again and again and again and again - it's organic.
I've always thought that less was a lot more.
The first professional play I ever saw was The Importance Of Being Earnest, and I just fell in love.
I've been playing sexually aware women most of my life. At this point I expected to be playing moms and wives. It's exciting to play a femme fatale.
Practically all the relationships I know are based on a foundation of lies and mutually accepted delusion.
I like my life. It's good.
My family was going back to England to visit my mother's grandmother, who was very ill. We went up to Liverpool and I met my great-aunt, who was just a force of nature. She was an elocution teacher and a huge enthusiast for theater and the classics. I took her amateur acting class, and she was really impressed with me.
