More quotes by Cate Blanchett
If you think about Audrey Hepburn, I think she became more beautiful when she stopped being an actress and started working with humanitarian campaigns. The more engaged you can become the more you can shed your self-consciousness.
Cate Blanchett
Fashion is one thing, you kind of can change your silhouette and try this and try that. But I think that with skin care, you know anything that you put into your skin goes into your body, so you want to know it's actually good for you. So I think I don't believe in fashion when it comes to skin care if that makes sense.
Cate Blanchett
Don't you find that work, if you love it, is actually really invigorating?
Cate Blanchett
I love those moments on stage, on screen and in life when you dispense with language, when you sort of transcend it in a way, and certainly the experience of falling in love, I think, defies words, which is why poets, painters, musicians, actors have tried to describe that feeling, writers have just tried to put words to that.
Cate Blanchett
That's why so many people want to play Hamlet: because it's a completely demarked role, and the actor playing it has to be prepared, through the language, to allow the audience to see into who he is.
Cate Blanchett
Particularly at the moment, it's an incredibly optimistic thing to bring children into the world.
Cate Blanchett
What you're trying to do as an actor is somehow trick yourself into believing that these words have never been said, and so you've got to discover them for the first time.
Cate Blanchett
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
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
Every director works differently.
Cate Blanchett
I discovered early on that some performers live their life in order to act, so all their relationships are simply an experience that they can feed back into their work. Which I find vampiric.
Cate Blanchett
I'm so misunderstood!
Cate Blanchett
Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.
Cate Blanchett
Planning cities is a necessary but risky business.
Cate Blanchett
My husband wasn't put off by it - he thought it was hilarious to see me dressed as Dylan! He didn't particularly want to kiss me with stubble all over my face - it felt a bit odd! But I think he's used to it [the make-up process].
Cate Blanchett
My everyday beauty routine is always rushed and pretty simple.
Cate Blanchett
One of my favorite moments is onstage, when you see a dancer leap, and you think they're flying, and then they fall. It's that moment of suspension that you look for, and sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't.
Cate Blanchett
When I was younger, I was actually looking forward to getting older, to have more insight, more understanding.
Cate Blanchett
Some ideas, like what you're going to do with your life, take time to form.
Cate Blanchett
Culture civilizes us, and that's why every single despotic regime has tried to smash [the arts].
