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
I've always known I wanted a family.
Charlize Theron
My job is to be a blank canvas & embody the characters that I'm playing.
Charlize Theron
I mean I tried to transform myself through characters throughout my career.
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
I've always said that I worry about being with a man who doesn't flirt.
Charlize Theron
[If you want to] ask the question what is beautiful? It's the life that you lead. It's the life that all women lead.
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
I like hard work. I like putting the effort towards it and then being able to look at it and go, All right, I did that.
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.
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
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
And I was victim to that very early in my career, where I would go into auditions, and I'd be wearing a big T shirt, a big baggy T shirt and loose jeans. You know, to try and show people that there was more to me than just that.
Charlize Theron
I havent lost my culture, just my accent.
Charlize Theron
I don't believe in making five-year plans. I don't want to say, Yes, I want to have children in the next five years, because I don't know. I've always known that I'd like to be a mom, but I don't want to live by a schedule. If I [did], I wouldn't be living in the moment.
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
It's in the eyes, mostly. Don't listen just to the other actor's lines. Look at - and listen to - their eyes. That's where the emotion comes through.
Charlize Theron
I'm an Academy Award winner. I'm serious.
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.
