More quotes by Cate Blanchett
We have to band together, but the thing in America is that people are terrified of losing their jobs... Maybe California needs to secede. The only thing that'll make any difference is the money... Tax dollars and losing that amount of money. It's one of the most economically powerful states, isn't it? That's where it hurts.

My husband keeps me really honest.
Cate Blanchett
My kids don't watch any TV, but they watch videos and films. I'm sure they watch it at friends' houses.
Cate Blanchett
I'm not a big believer in linear paths. I would always have these sort of five-year plans and think, 'Ok, I wouldn't mind to try to get here in five years.'
Cate Blanchett
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
Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.
Cate Blanchett
I think when you have a character as richly drawn, I suppose then there are subconscious, mental notes that you've made.
Cate Blanchett
People talk about the golden age of Hollywood because of how women were lit then. You could be Joan Crawford and Bette Davis and work well into your 50s, because you were lit and made into a goddess. Now, with everything being sort of gritty, women have this sense of their use-by date.
Cate Blanchett
When you fall in love with someone, you're not really changing at all. You're really just reliving something that already happened at some point.
Cate Blanchett
It's interesting when you get those roles, which seem like nothing on the page, and you kind of subvert them. It's hard to say no.
Cate Blanchett
I think marriage is all about timing. Getting married is insanity I mean, it's a risk - who knows if you're going to be together forever? But you both say, 'We're going to take this chance, in the same spirit.
Cate Blanchett
My everyday beauty routine is always rushed and pretty simple.
Cate Blanchett
There's an expression in Australia that's called 'Go Bush,' which means to get out of the city and relax. I try and 'go bush' to places where there's no cell reception. But, I don't get to do that often, so for the most part, it's just a state of mind.
Cate Blanchett
When you're a performer, of course you want an audience, but it's very, very different from courting fame.
Cate Blanchett
I'm of the opinion that it's okay to be silent, to not speak if you don't have anything to say.
Cate Blanchett
Things present themselves to you, and it's how you choose to deal with them that reveals who you are. We all say a lot of things, don't we, about who we are and how we think. But in the end it's your actions, how you respond to circumstance that reveals your character.
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
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
I think often women can feel isolated and feel like they get into a rut and don't quite know how to get out of it.
Cate Blanchett
When I was younger, I was actually looking forward to getting older, to have more insight, more understanding.
