Helena Bonham Carter
I was like one of those nauseatingly nice children. I was very, very well behaved and boring.

And trust. It takes a long time to trust someone. You work with people, anybody you dont know, it takes about a films length to get to know each other.

Everyone seems to think I'm very ladylike. That I'm very cultured and intelligent. I drink alot of Diet Coke and belch. I've been known to use the F-word. I've told a few dirty jokes. I arm-wrestle.
Helena Bonham Carter
You become very angry and depressed that you keep getting offered only these exceedingly demure and repressed roles. They're so not me. That's why films like Fight Club were so important to me because I think I confounded certain stereotypes and limited perceptions of what I could do as an actress.
Helena Bonham Carter
I personally never got the gist of Facebook and Twitter.
Helena Bonham Carter
No, I can never rely on Tim to make me pretty.
Helena Bonham Carter
Because I sleep with him he asked me to audition, you know?

You learn to rely on a few basic movements and use your voice to the greatest extent possible to convey your emotions. So there was a technical challenge there and a responsibility to create a character from behind the mask.
Helena Bonham Carter
I always feel better after a good scream.
Helena Bonham Carter
On corsets: I said, You have got to be kidding. I am an ape and yet I am still expected to squeeze myself into one of those damn things.
Helena Bonham Carter
I'm the kind of actor who has ventured into escaping from me.
Helena Bonham Carter
It was weird because I was pregnant, throughout that so it was weird being a pregnant witch. I was in a really bad mood but luckily, because I sleep with the director, he just sort of scheduled me so I only had to do it two nights.
Helena Bonham Carter
I should get a few ribs taken out, because I'll be in a corset for the rest of my life.
