When you're a performer, of course you want an audience, but it's very, very different from courting fame.
Cate Blanchett
Image
Culture civilizes us, and that's why every single despotic regime has tried to smash [the arts].
Cate Blanchett
Image
What I love about the theater is that you know who you're acting for: your audience. And the thing I find really hard in film is, you don't. The audience is invisible. And we're sitting there, hoping there's other people out there.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I look at someone's face and I see the work before I see the person. I personally don't think people look better when they do it they just look different.
Cate Blanchett
Image
The lack of racial diversity and gender diversity and the lack of female directors - those are not fashionable issues. And they're not issues that reside solely within the film industry.
Cate Blanchett
Image
Audiences want to see them, and in fact, they earn money. The world is round, people.
Cate Blanchett
Image
As an actor I suppose you're constantly observing. I don't sit in restaurants making notes, I don't live my life in order to then feed it into my work.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I never really think about my gender, first and foremost - until a door is closed to you. Until you can see a parallel opportunity with a man in a similar place in his career and you think, That opportunity is not open to me or my fellow actresses. That's interesting.

After a run of several night events, you begin to appreciate the solitude and the quiet backstage.
Cate Blanchett
Image
You can't be trying to make a film that pleases all people, you know, so it's not a concern of mine.
Cate Blanchett
Image
There's not a long, entrenched tradition of theatergoing in Australia.
Cate Blanchett
Image
The first thing is to accept that theater is an unknown. If you go to a concert, you know the music. If you go to an art show, you can literally see the art on your phone before you see it in person. But with theater, often times people aren't prepared to take risks, even though that's exactly what's great about it.

Please, I need you to save my ass.
Cate Blanchett
Image
Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I think the terrifying thing is you see all these people who go to the same cosmetic surgeon, and they end up, after a while, looking like everyone.
Cate Blanchett
Image
If I had my way, if I was lucky enough, if I could be on the brink my entire life - that great sense of expectation and excitement without the disappointment - that would be the perfect state.
Cate Blanchett
Image
The more you do it, the more you learn to concentrate, as a child does, incredibly intensively and then you sort of have to relax. I remember the first film I did, the lead actor would in between scenes be reading a newspaper or sleeping and I'd think, 'How can you do that?'
Cate Blanchett
Image
The thing I love about live performance the most, is that the doors are closed, the lights are turned down, and the audience has to be reverential to what's happening onstage.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I think we should all feel lucky and blessed that people are still, in this day and age, getting in their cars with other people and driving to a location and paying money to sit in a theater and watch a play.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I'm not focused on what other people think of me.
