More quotes by Charlize Theron
I was going to go to Macchu Picchu and then I just ended up working the whole year.
Charlize Theron
I'd rather put on a pair of jeans and get on my Harley and act like a guy.
Charlize Theron
The human condition is all about us pretending to be something sometimes that we're not. When you get into the core of people kind of stripping all of that away, that's for me, as an actor, always the most fun stuff to do.

Modeling was never a passion of mine.
Charlize Theron
And I do think that earlier in my career, I did make a very conscious decision to make sure that I was doing work that wasn't necessarily given to me, and that people didn't necessarily think that I would be able to do.
Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron
I never take that for granted, but I'm always very aware that I'm one person and I can't wear everything.
Charlize Theron
That's why I like my job so much, because at the end of the day they're fruits of labor that you don't pick very easily. And I love that.
Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron
I've tried most of my career to transform myself towards characters.
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
When they watch a movie and they know that you're in a relationship, you just kind of watch that constantly.
Charlize Theron
I treat my relationships like marriages. The ceremony isn't that important to me.
Charlize Theron
People always say to me, What's wrong with Hollywood? They don't want to make female-driven movies. And that's not where the problem lies. It lies with us, in society. When we make these movies, nobody goes to see them.
Charlize Theron
I look at my career and how I'm doing it now. I feel like there is something authentic in that process that I still try not to over manipulate. When I feel something, I try to listen to that.
Charlize Theron
I think we're at a time where people just want to join together and cause change. People don't want to live like this any more.
Charlize Theron
Men are like fine wines - the older they get, the better they get.
