More quotes by Claire Danes
My character was kidnapped by the Terminator and I was kidnapped by the Terminator production.
Claire Danes
I used to have nightmares when I was a little kid that I woke up prematurely and opened all the Christmas presents. And then I would be so relieved when I woke up and I realized that I hadn't done it.
Claire Danes
By the time I went to Yale, I'd been acting for a long time and I was really tired of it. I was restless - and a little bored - and I was really eager to investigate different parts of myself.
Claire Danes
It just seems like the most successful, iconic love stories are not so easy or escapist. I think the ones that stay with us and resonate are full of conflict, discord and misunderstandings 'cause that's what makes drama happen or tension even if it's a comedy.
Claire Danes
I think it distinguishes television from every other medium. It's what makes it kind of radical, and risky, and fun.
Claire Danes
You know, let a few years go by until I hit my midlife crisis. Then that can be documented on film.
Claire Danes
I was very driven to act from a very young age, and my parents were not only tolerant of that drive but also encouraging.
Claire Danes
I finally realized that yeah I did want to be an actor and it wasn't out of habit, but I needed to grow up for myself and then kind of re-enter the industry with a sound understanding of what my sensibilities and my values are as a relatively formed human being.
Claire Danes
Well, it's true that you often kind of forget to see the person you're most intimate with, but occasionally I'll come to and sort of think, 'Oh my God! You're really, really good-looking! I'm embarrassed now! It's nice to occasionally have that flash.
Claire Danes
I was a serious kid to an absurd degree. I was overwhelmed with responsibility. You know, trying to play grown up. I overdid it.
Claire Danes
I'm just always learning lines. I've learned to flag the really crucial scenes, and I start figuring them out and committing them to memory as soon as I get them.
Claire Danes
I know, it's true. I've played these tortured teenagers. I can't wait to shed that image.
Claire Danes
I'm just a big old nerd.
Claire Danes
I really liked Yale, although it was extremely intimidating. When I visited the campus, I was hiding behind trees, I felt so unworthy.
Claire Danes
You don't realize how useful a therapist is until you see yourself on e and discover you have more problems than you ever dreamed of.
Claire Danes
I have a huge, active imagination, and I think I'm really scared of being alone because if I'm left to my own devices, I'll just turn into a madwoman.
Claire Danes
When I was 18 I went to college for two years and didn't work for a year which was essential for me, because my identity had been so influenced by my being an actor and I think I just needed to discover what it was to be myself, divorced from all that responsibility.
Claire Danes
Money or no money, acting is my calling.
Claire Danes
Anybody who knows how to make a good movie, knows that it's a collaborative undertaking. To deny that its really dangerous.
Claire Danes
At every stage in life you think about death. But teenagers especially are sort of invincible. They're not supposed to be thinking about dying yet, or else they'd be too afraid to live.
Claire Danes
