More quotes by Jodie Foster
Casting is a long process for me. I take a lot of time.
Jodie Foster
Look, it's terrible, I know, but weakness really, really bugs me, to the point that if there is a wounded bird on the sidewalk, I look at it and I go: I think I'll just kick it.
Jodie Foster
I made, like, five movies while I was in college. I think they just weren't memorable movies. I've taken breaks as the years have gone on - I burn out every once in a while.
Jodie Foster
There are 400 billion stars out there, just in our galaxy alone. If just one out of a million of those had planets, and just one in a million of those had life, and just one out of a million of those had intelligent life, there would be literally millions of civilizations out there.
Jodie Foster
I'd like to be Dakota Fanning when I get young.

Jodie Foster
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
'Taxi Driver' was the best thing that ever happened to me, and I didn't become a weirdo and squawk like a chicken.
Jodie Foster
I was a literature major in college and that was my thing, books.
Jodie Foster
Cruelty might be very human and very cultural, but it is not acceptable and it is not an option.
Jodie Foster
I think anybody over 30 plays parents because it happens in your thirties and so that's kind of a natural progression. But I'm definitely drawn to it. It's probably the most intense, passionate thing that happens to you as you get older.
Jodie Foster
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
My kids are young and my life with them is really stimulating and really full and significant.
Jodie Foster
In a weird way, that's the beauty of being an actor. You get to live out things that you're afraid of, and you get to say, 'Well, maybe I can get to the end of it and survive it intact and I can be the hero of my own story.' It's kind of a way of exorcising fear.
