More quotes by Jodie Foster
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.
Jodie Foster
I'd prefer not to act in the film I'm directing. I think, though, as an actor, you do learn how to turn things on and off quickly and kind of compartmentalize. You learn to accommodate the camera and the other actors, to notice where the boom is and where you mark is, and be able to repeat something a few times.
Jodie Foster

Jodie Foster
In the end, winning is sleeping better.
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
I make movies about people in spiritual crisis because it's a way for me to spend the time, the energy, the focus and the obsession to come to terms with my own spiritual crisis.
Jodie Foster
I didn't grow up really wanting to be an actor. I don't remember ever not being an actor.
Jodie Foster
I don't need to be Tom Cruise. I just need to work forever.
Jodie Foster
I've worked with Neil Jordan, who I really adore. We did The Brave One [2007] together.
Jodie Foster
There's absolutely no sort of acknowledgment or reward for this - except for the intangible of my kids growing up to be wonderful people.
Jodie Foster
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
So, yes, there's nothing I love more than listening to directors talk about their movies.
