I think referendums are fantastic as long as the question is phrased in a way which is not meant to deliberately confuse or confound people.

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.

Well, I've never looked upon myself as being a beauty, per se.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I think it's always good to take on things that at first seem bigger than you. Then you just try and surmount them.
Cate Blanchett
Image
I don't think about being beautiful or not being beautiful. ... It's more about feeling confident inside your own skin really and thinking about yourself as little as possible.

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.

For me, I think the bigger something is, the more difficult it is to make it nimble and fleet afoot.

Yaron has elevated the way Australia perceives circus, both nationally and internationally ... I mean remarkable.

Personally, I prefer to play against the look: If a character appears particularly unhinged, with makeup running down her face, I like to play her as if she has it together. I think that juxtaposition makes it so much more interesting.

I feel like I've been marinated in Australian theatre.

I have the embarrassing thing where often if you're watching a film, you kind of go through the emotions and the thought stages that your character went through, but you sort of do it with Tourette's. So I end up often crying when I'm crying, and looking angry when I'm looking angry, so it's pretty ugly.

My everyday beauty routine is always rushed and pretty simple.

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.

I like to put perfume on my pulse points, but I also love the way you can sense it - there is an atmosphere that comes from releasing a scent in to the world - it's a primal thing. I spray around me, not just on me, and it lingers in the room after I leave.

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.

You have to surrender less when you see a film than when you go and see something live.

Wouldn't it be nice if the internet blew up?

I think most beauty tips that work and last are kind of old.

I love strange choices. I'm always interested in people who depart from what is expected of them and go into new territory.
