More quotes by Charlize Theron

I had these fangs because I had jaundice when I was a kid and I was put on so many antibiotics that my teeth rotted. They had to cut them out. So I never had milk teeth. That was tough, you know, being in school having photos taken while I was pretending I had teeth. It was hideous.

Charlize Theron
I try to hang on to as much mystery as possible. How can we go through our lives not wanting to have any element of surprise?’
Charlize Theron
I think writing a book with film in mind is a way to write a really bad books. You can usually tell those books that are packaged to become films.
Charlize Theron
I do think that when you're specifically working in a country like South Africa, you have to be able to be aware of the cultural truth of what people are raised in and believe in and how they function within their society.
Charlize Theron
At the end of the day, I'd much rather do a piece about people in a story that I find riveting and intriguing and moving, versus really carrying some kind of heavy political agenda on my sleeve. That's not who I am.
Charlize Theron
When I'm working I don't have room to think about myself and my own issues. It's really freeing. There is no room for me, which is really nice.
Charlize Theron
