I like dramas. I've always liked dramas. And I'm a pretty light person. I don't consider myself a very dramatic person. But I do like doing that onscreen.

What do I do to live? What do I do to be vital? The answer is always creativity the answer is always art.
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
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
Image
There is no doubt that each of us is born an individual. Why is it then that so many of us die carbon copies?
Jodie Foster

Acting, for me, is exhausting. I'm always more energized by directing. It's more intense to direct. I can pop in and express myself, then pop out again. It's a huge passion for me.
Jodie Foster
Image
I'm really not a clothes person. To me, that's just work. It's the thing I hate to do the most. I don't want to be judged in that way.
Jodie Foster
Image
Now apparently I'm told that every celebrity is expected to honour the details of their private life with a press conference, a fragrance and a prime-time reality show.
Jodie Foster
Image
I wish that I spoke more languages. I speak a couple languages, but not well enough to really dub myself. French is really the only one, and it's a difficult thing.
Jodie Foster
Image
I didn't have any ambition to produce big mainstream popcorn movies.
Jodie Foster
Image
I don't know why people think child actresses in particular are screwed up. I see kids everywhere who are totally bored. I've never been bored a day in my life.
Jodie Foster
Image
I've always had this idea that I wanted movies to make people better not worse.
Jodie Foster
Image
I already did my coming out about a thousand years ago, back in the stone age.
Jodie Foster
Image
I did a couple of plays in junior high school, maybe high school, and then I did a play in college.
Jodie Foster
Image
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. All of the things that people love about theater - the fact that it changes every night and that it's so spontaneous - all of those things just frighten me.
