More quotes by Jodie Foster
I don't need to be Tom Cruise. I just need to work forever.
Jodie Foster
Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock do romantic comedies. I do dark dramas. I do these movies well.
Jodie Foster
I'd like to be Dakota Fanning when I get young.
Jodie Foster
I can't imagine ever not doing [acting]. I would feel like I would have lost a limb. But I am older now, and sometimes I wonder who I would have been and what about me would have changed had I not had these experiences as a young person
Jodie Foster
I'm kind of a chatterbox and I talk really fast.
Jodie Foster
I suppose that's my one little secret, the secret of my success.
Jodie Foster
I think there is something to being curious about your choices, but not wanting to kind of pierce the bubble of them, because it takes away from the act of discovering.
Jodie Foster
I prefer to commit 100 per cent to a movie and make fewer films, because it takes over your life.
Jodie Foster
It's very important to distinguish between chemical depression that requires medication and talk therapy.
Jodie Foster
I saw leaving college as an opportunity to do something different with my life. I always thought that becoming an academic was going to be my path.
Jodie Foster
I had to take my makeup off at work every night. I wasn't allowed to do it at home because my mom said that when your work day is done, you're done with work.
Jodie Foster
You guys might be surprised, but I am not Honey Boo Boo Child.
Jodie Foster
Boys are easy. I mean, there are just a lot of bruises when they're young. With boys, you get a lot of accidental jabs in the eye and stepping on your feet, and those tantrums they cause when they don't want to leave the toy store.
Jodie Foster
I don't have a burning desire to act strangely enough. I don't know that if I hadn't been an actor as a young person, I don't know that I ever would have chosen this because it's not really my personality.
Jodie Foster
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
As an actor, I'm attracted to drama as a director, it's humor - because it's the story of my life, and I can't be that serious about it. Being alone is a big theme in all my movies, both as a director and as an actress.
Jodie Foster
People are always surprised when I say that I'm an atheist.
Jodie Foster
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
Where I have problems is when I am in the midst of doing something that I am completely focused on, and then I am asked to buy shoes or something.
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.
