There's nothing wrong with making little kids happy, but there's nothing wrong with wanting to be an adult actress. I mean a grown-up actress.
Anne Hathaway
Image
That's how I see myself as an actress. I may not be the best in the world, but I love my craft more than just about anything, and I will give everything I have to it, whatever the cost.

If you're with someone who enjoys having people play hard to get, maybe that's the way you're supposed to do it then.

There's no magic bullet there's no pill that you take that makes everything great and makes you happy all the time. I'm letting go of those expectations, and that's opening me up to moments of transcendent bliss. But I still feel the stress over 'Am I thin enough? Am I too thin? Is my body the right shape?'
Anne Hathaway

Obsessing about weight is a big old waste of time.
Anne Hathaway
Image
My biggest fear is overreaching. I have been in situations where I felt swamped, and it's turned out really well and I've had other situations where I've had to walk off the film after five minutes because I realized I was in way over my head.
Anne Hathaway

I would have played street cop number three if it meant getting to work with Chris Nolan.
Anne Hathaway
Image
After Princess Diaries, I was labeled a good girl, and for the first eight years of my career I had to fight to get any other kind of role. But I like fighting for a job, actually. Once you get it, you feel like you've emerged victorious from the scrap and you're like, OK, this one's mine. Did it. Done.

Image
I think the only thing in life that you really have to worry about is how you treat other people. If you mess up and treat someone else badly, you apologize, and you don't apologize for anything else. Be yourself and go for it.
Anne Hathaway
Image
I'm convinced that a few guys I've dated are gay, and they won't admit it. I think we've all done that.
Anne Hathaway
Image
I think that people had this idea that I sat at home and sucked on lollipops and ate cotton candy while I watched cartoons - wearing a tiara.
Anne Hathaway
Image
I don't feel comfortable doing movies. It's not what I trained to do. I trained to be a theater actress. You put me on a stage in front of 2,000 people, I know what to do.

And I think that if something doesn't make sense, forcing yourself to understand it from [Chris Nolan's] perspective makes you better.
