More quotes by Helena Bonham Carter
Mothers are the heart of any household. I try to spend as much time with my children as I possibly can while also fulfilling my professional duties. It is tricky, but I think I manage it.

Helena Bonham Carter
As everyone, you do end up becoming your mother, but also as you're acting, I find out you become every member of your family, bits come out without you really wanting them to come out.
Helena Bonham Carter
I'm the kind of actor who has ventured into escaping from me.
Helena Bonham Carter
Be yourself. No one else can.
Helena Bonham Carter
I always feel better after a good scream.

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 do think imperfection's underrated.
Helena Bonham Carter
Maybe from now on puppets can do the parts

The thing about the Oscars is real life doesn't stop. You have to get back to planet Earth the following morning. The rubbish needs taking out. The kids will be crying. They'll need feeding. Kids do not care whether you've been to the Oscars!
Helena Bonham Carter
I should get a few ribs taken out, because I'll be in a corset for the rest of my life.
Helena Bonham Carter
I'm a very good sleeper.
