I'm of the opinion that it's okay to be silent, to not speak if you don't have anything to say.

More quotes by Cate Blanchett
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
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
I love strange choices. I'm always interested in people who depart from what is expected of them and go into new territory.
Cate Blanchett
I don't have a sense of entitlement or that I deserve this. You'd be surprised at the lack of competition between nominees - I think a lot of it's imposed from the outside. Can I have my champagne now?
Cate Blanchett
When I was younger, I was actually looking forward to getting older, to have more insight, more understanding.
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
To record something on your iPhone to be watched later, that's like the opposite of theater. The joy of being there is experiencing it with other people. It doesn't translate onto your phone. It's about being present.
Cate Blanchett
It seems like people increasingly just can't be by themselves because they're so used to having an epicenter on the Internet that actually exists for other people. Until someone clicks onto your Facebook page, it doesn't mean anything.
Cate Blanchett
I think when you fall in love, whether you're heterosexual, transgender, gay, lesbian, whatever, straight, you feel like it's happening to you for the first time.
Cate Blanchett
Wouldn't it be nice if the internet blew up?
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
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 you go to a concert, part of being there is that you're all hearing the same thing. It's about being in a crowd. If you go to a gig and there are two people there, then it's not the same thing.
Cate Blanchett
A film is not a documentary. And what's wonderful about film is that it's a real provocation for people. I never, ever see film as being an absolute version of the truth.
Cate Blanchett
Sometimes I think it's so good not to win those things. And, anyway, who wants to peak when they're 28?
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
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
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
Don't you find that work, if you love it, is actually really invigorating?
Cate Blanchett
I much prefer a natural approach to beauty. You know, Coco Chanel always said to take one thing off before you leave the house, and I think that also applies to makeup.
Cate Blanchett
