I'm kind of a chatterbox and I talk really fast.
Jodie Foster

I think I missed all of the wonderful things ... I missed the control that you have in film, and I missed getting it right, really getting it right, the way you hope people will see it.

Jodie Foster
Image
Being twenty-something is all about taking it in: eating it, drinking it, and spitting out the seeds later. It's about being fearless, and stupid, and dangerous, and unfocused, and abandoned. It's about being in it, not on top of it
Jodie Foster

People are always surprised when I say that I'm an atheist.
Jodie Foster
Image
I didn't grow up really wanting to be an actor. I don't remember ever not being an actor.
Jodie Foster
Image
I fantasize about having a manual job where I can come home at night, read a book and not feel responsible for what will happen the next day.

Knowing what paint a painter uses or having an understanding of where he was in the history of where he came from doesn't hurt your appreciation of the painting.
Jodie Foster
Image
It's very hard for me to get a new car. It's really hard for me to get a new house. It's really hard for me to move on from the things that give me stability.
Jodie Foster
Image
We think, If I have more money, I am more valuable. If I make more money, I am more valuable. It's all sort of wound up with this problem that humans have with their failure.
Jodie Foster
Image
I think an artist's responsibility is more complex than people realize.
