People always think I’m dainty when they meet me, but I’m really not. I’m very German – we’re not made out of sugar.

More quotes by Diane Kruger
I grew up with classical music when I was a ballet dancer. Now when I have to prepare an emotional scene, to cry or whatever, I listen to sonatas. Vivaldi and stuff. It's just beautiful to me.
Diane Kruger
It's quite a famous story that takes place on Christmas Eve, and the Germans, French, and Scottish are trying to make peace one night and they bury their dead and they play football. I play a German opera singer, in German, which I never have so I am really excited about that.
Diane Kruger
I play a curator, the most American part you can think of. My work is to protect the Declaration of Independence. I work at the National Archives in Washington.
Diane Kruger
You should be smart enough to know that you don't know everything. But you have to believe in yourself. I certainly do.
Diane Kruger
Modeling is so... not superficial. Well, I guess it is. But it's boring.
Diane Kruger
What I really tried to do with Helen was make her show this sad side of her. She was married off at 16, was so young and living in this castle that can't leave because of how she looks, and married to a man she hates and three times her age.
Diane Kruger
The real challenge is to give a really nuanced performance and really push myself, to make sure that we see a very complete picture of a woman living with Asperger's. Of course, I'm always intrigued. I learn so much from the show about storylines that actually happen on the border.
Diane Kruger
I don't have any romantic ideas about marriage. Trust me. A white dress... ? No. It's not something for me.
Diane Kruger
I have a kind of boring personal life, to the paparazzi anyway, and I don't hang with the cool crowd.
Diane Kruger
I grew up loving actresses or actors who were very classy but who seemed a little bit mysterious because you couldn't grasp what they're really thinking. I mean, Grace Kelly always looked impossibly glamorous, yet you could always see there was something behind her eyes.
Diane Kruger
Every actor you learn from, take something from everyone - big actor or not. Whether they're big movie stars or not doesn't really matter.
Diane Kruger
I don't make movies thinking: 'Oh, this is going to be a huge box-office hit.'
Diane Kruger
I only dance when I go out.
Diane Kruger
Above all, I dislike vulgarity.
Diane Kruger
I didn't grow up watching a lot of TV.
Diane Kruger
I think they went with the idea that people know the story pretty much- knowing that he's going to take her when she's going to go with him. Also, the movie is really focused on Achilles and Hector and their battles.
Diane Kruger
It's fun being one of the boys. It's fun to play a character that's rough and gets down and dirty and not to be this precious girl who just sits in the corner and just sort of stands by the action.
Diane Kruger
With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be.
Diane Kruger
I find period pieces really difficult to get my head around. How can we know what it must have been like to be in Nazi Germany in 1944? The reality weighs on me because I feel like you want to try and honor what happened, but how can you truly know? I have never lived in a war or lost anyone.
Diane Kruger
I don’t know how you prepare for something like that. I cannot imagine living in a fishbowl like that. I don’t live here so I don’t know it will be that bad anyway because I live in Paris and we don’t have that sort of phenomenon there. So I don’t know, we’ll see what happens.
