More quotes by Jodie Foster
Casting is a long process for me. I take a lot of time.
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
The best reason to make a film is that you feel passionately about it.
Jodie Foster
I prefer to commit 100 per cent to a movie and make fewer films, because it takes over your life.
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
It's very important to distinguish between chemical depression that requires medication and talk therapy.
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.
Jodie Foster
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
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
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
I'm not interested in being perfect when im older. Im interested in having a narrative. It's the narrative that's really the most beautiful thing about women.
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
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
It was a weird moment in my life and a weird experience [doing a theater]. It made me think, Gee, I don't know if I ever want to do this again. And I love theater. I love going. I love the experience of theater. But I am not sure it's for me.
Jodie Foster
I love European movies and I kind of grew up on European films.
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
I think an artist's responsibility is more complex than people realize.
Jodie Foster
I cannot believe in God when there is no scientific evidence for the existence of a supreme being and creator.
