More quotes by Jessica Chastain

Jessica Chastain
I find that the monsters are usually the people that I have the most empathy for because they're the ones that are hurt the most. There's a reason why they're the monsters.

Jessica Chastain
I can't even open my eyes underwater.
Jessica Chastain
There is this immediate connection, this intimacy when you're acting because there's no room to be polite or shy. Also, as an actor I get to connect with women I've never met before.

Jessica Chastain
I like things where I can do a physical transformation, and I love accents and voices, and I'm never going to play the same character twice.
Jessica Chastain
I don't really drink, and I've never been to a rave. I used to cut school to read Shakespeare, not to make out in the park.
