More quotes by Charlize Theron
So how critics will perceive your film or your work, or whether your movie is going to make $100 million at the box office, or whether you are going to be winning any awards - well, you have no control over that.
Charlize Theron
I'm an Academy Award winner. I'm serious.
Charlize Theron
I'm happy for people who want to get married but it's not my thing. I'm extremely happy in my relationship and I would love to have kids.
Charlize Theron
You have to be able to feel like you can play way outside of the box. If you're with a great filmmaker and someone you can trust, that's encouraged, and Seth was that kind of filmmaker and co-star.
Charlize Theron
You're either a really good hooker or a really good mom. That kind of conflicted nature is very much a part of being a woman.
Charlize Theron
I like being a cog in a wheel. I like being a small aspect of a much bigger thing, and I think my interest in that takes the pressure of myself.
Charlize Theron
I have very talented people dress me and put my makeup on, stuff like that. But I do love that look, and I think it's maybe because I grew up on that old glamour.

Charlize Theron
I just want to make good movies. Honestly, the only difference for me with this stuff is that there is more people on the set.
Charlize Theron
You just don't know if you'll be around tomorrow. You just don't.
Charlize Theron
I am South African and I am so aware, even as a white, privileged South African, that even within our community of privilege the idea of talking about sex or sexual preference or sexual identity or anything like that was just, nobody ever did that and nobody ever felt comfortable doing that.
Charlize Theron
I was going to go to Macchu Picchu and then I just ended up working the whole year.
Charlize Theron
I think there is a part of me that's always a little bit like, Why would I torture myself? Just in case you forgot how big the shoes are you're walking in, take a look again
Charlize Theron
Beauty is more than skin deep.
Charlize Theron
My job is to be a blank canvas & embody the characters that I'm playing.
Charlize Theron
You get yourself out there and you work hard, and you hope that word of mouth carries and one day somebody will actually step up to the plate and say, 'I believe that you can do this.'
Charlize Theron
I think of myself as a highly sexual creature.
Charlize Theron
I think some of the most creative work is coming out of television. I felt it's very immediate and I like that. It's really fast. It's got a pace to it, and that's why I think everybody in my field wants to just do good material.
Charlize Theron
There's only so much you can do, but if somebody doesn't give you a chance there is nothing you can do.
Charlize Theron
I don't want to be put on a pedestal. I don't want to be anything other than what we are. I want to just be a woman.
Charlize Theron
