I tend to gravitate toward the more powerful roles. As opposed to the doe-eyed girl who bats her eyelashes and runs around in towels, you now what I mean? Because that kind of makes me want to vomit.

More quotes by Julia Stiles
Sometimes I have these abstract ideas and then lose track of myself.
Julia Stiles
So I am happy to have fans, especially if it enables me to keep working. And I am really grateful when people respond to my work.
Julia Stiles
I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces.
Julia Stiles
I am a big fan of horror movies but I had never thought that I had wanted to act in one because I don't think that actors get to do much in them. They're usually just reacting.
Julia Stiles
In my early career, I look at that time as a series of trial and error and learning as I go.
Julia Stiles
I like analyzing human behavior. It's complex. That's what keeps me going.
Julia Stiles
I'm not good at keeping secrets. If I'm entrusted with a secret from a friend, I can do that because I'm a good friend, but I don't like having secrets, it makes me nervous.

I remember seeing Janet McTeer in A Doll's House. My grandmother took me and we had seats in the very back row, but her performance was so powerful - it was very accessible. I felt like I was much closer than I was.

Julia Stiles
I always feel like a goofy little kid.
Julia Stiles
I've always been fascinated with the idea of people paying for sex and what goes on with that and why that happens.

Actors can write and produce too. Then when I was working on Jason BourneĀ - having had that experience - instead of going back to my trailer and being separate from everyone else, I would sit behind the monitor and watch Paul Greengrass work and be much more included in the process. That was new for me and really enriching.
Julia Stiles
I'm going to Columbia University but I'm trying to keep that low-profile because I don't want weird people following me there. I want the experience of normal college life.
Julia Stiles
I think it's really special to be a part of something that people are still watching or thinking about or interested in, or remember fondly many years later. I don't think it's annoying at all.
Julia Stiles
I met this homeless man who had never owned a shirt in his life. He had taken his pants and worn them as a shirt and I thought it was so creative. He was liberated from the conventions of fashion.
Julia Stiles
It was nice that there [ in the Bourne Ultimatum ] was a reference to the relationship . It's very subtle - it's actually without dialogue. I do think it's powerful even without words.
Julia Stiles
I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don't do anything that outlandish anyway.
Julia Stiles
Yoga has stopped me from destroying my joints after running. It slows me down.
Julia Stiles
Fundamentally women and men are different.
Julia Stiles
My grandmother took me to a lot of theater. I was exposed to performance quite a bit - everything from Broadway to off-Broadway and dance and music as well. I was very lucky that way. It was a very rich childhood.
