More quotes by Jodie Foster
How could you ask me to believe in God when there's absolutely no evidence that I can see? I do believe in the beauty and the awe-inspiring mystery of the science that's out there that we haven't discovered yet, that there are scientific explanations for phenomena that we call mystical because we don't know any better.
Jodie Foster
My definition of a friend is somebody who adores you even though they know the things you're most ashamed of.
Jodie Foster
You guys might be surprised, but I am not Honey Boo Boo Child.
Jodie Foster
Caitriona Balfe, who is Irish, is also in my movie. I asked her to play her Irish accent in the movie, but her own brogue is so faint that I had to keep pumping it up.
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
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
Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from.
Jodie Foster
Cruelty might be very human and very cultural, but it is not acceptable and it is not an option.
Jodie Foster
I was a literature major in college and that was my thing, books.
Jodie Foster
I fantasize about having a manual job where I can come home at night, read a book and not feel responsible for what will happen the next day.
Jodie Foster
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.
Jodie Foster
I'm kind of a chatterbox and I talk really fast.
Jodie Foster
I cannot believe in God when there is no scientific evidence for the existence of a supreme being and creator.
Jodie Foster
I feel at various times in my life that I've been at a point where I had to choose between a death sentence and a life sentence. And I want to live. What do I do to live? What do I do to be vital? And the answer is always creativity.
Jodie Foster
Being understood is not the most essential thing in life.
Jodie Foster
Part of me longs to do a job where there's not a gray area.
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
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
I think an artist's responsibility is more complex than people realize.
Jodie Foster
I didn't grow up really wanting to be an actor. I don't remember ever not being an actor.
