More quotes by Claire Danes
I get a little jealous of these actor boys. They walk into a club, and in two seconds flat there are swarms of girls who are wanting so badly to touch them or just say hello. That's not the case with me, or any other girl I know.
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
If I hadn't been an actress, I was thinking seriously about going into psychology. It's just really what I'm interested in: the human psyche and how we process information.
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 discovered Christopher Isherwood in college. His writing style is so direct, warm, and inclusive.
Claire Danes
I like marriage. I feel very secure. It helps when you are in love with the person you are married to.
Claire Danes
Television lets audiences deeply connect with characters.
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
I'm human. I think people see me as sweeter and softer than I do.
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
I'm just a big old nerd.
Claire Danes
I have this book club, and we don't read one book we offer up a few suggestions and create a library over time.
Claire Danes
Money or no money, acting is my calling.
Claire Danes
I'm only realizing now that I was a child actress because I always took myself so seriously.
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
I love love and falling in love, but it can get pretty flat real fast.
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've always very earnestly tried to do my best, so I just have to trust that and forgive myself for being fallible.
Claire Danes
I took three years off. I differentiated myself from the industry. Found my identity - sort of... I haven't graduated yet. I'm not legitimately educated yet, but maybe one day.
Claire Danes
My go-to gifts are scarves from my friend Matin Maulawizada's nonprofit organization, Afghan Hands, which supports disenfranchised women in Afghanistan. In exchange for their beautiful embroidery, the women are given financial aid and classes in math and literacy. The scarves are all stunning and one of a kind.
