I think imperfections are important, just as mistakes are important. You only get to be good by making mistakes, and you only get to be real by being imperfect.

More quotes by Julianne Moore
I think that when you're constructing entertainment thrillers, horror movies, or anything that's gonna scare, they're all based on what our natural worries are.
Julianne Moore
I still battle with my deeply boring diet of, essentially, yogurt and breakfast cereal and granola bars. I hate dieting. I hate having to do it to be the 'right' size. I'm hungry all the time. I think I'm a slender person, but the industry apparently doesn't. All actresses are hungry all the time, I think.
Julianne Moore
I was lucky enough to come in at the beginning of the independent film movement, and it's really shaped my life and my career.
Julianne Moore
I don't consider myself very brave in any sense. I'm interested in this kind of behavior. My job is to try to make it realistic and emotionally resonant. That's the most challenging thing, to bring emotional resonance to what you do as an actor.
Julianne Moore
You never have sex the way people do in the movies. You don't do it on the floor, you don't do it standing up, you don't always have all your clothes off, you don't happen to have on all the sexy lingerie. You know, if anybody ever ripped my clothes, I'd kill them.
Julianne Moore
I read a lot, I always read. I like to be inside a story. When I started acting, even in high school, it sort of felt like that's as close as you can get to being inside a book, and I feel that way even with movies more so, because you've kind of created this imaginary world, and everybody is colluding to create it.
Julianne Moore
Everybody has the right to marry the person they love and be represented as a couple and family... It's something that people will look back on in years to come and say, 'I can't believe it took so long for us to recognize this.' It'll be like segregation and giving women the right to vote.
Julianne Moore
Men aren't asked about age. Men aren't asked about their children. Not that these things aren't important, but I do feel like it becomes reductive when a woman's life becomes, 'Talk to me about your kids and how you feel about plastic surgery.'
Julianne Moore
What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.
Julianne Moore
I think the thing about relationships is that you're always thinking Oh, it's going to go bad. [...] But then, it's the same thing that all the silly magazines say, Take time for yourselves. Go away.
Julianne Moore
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
Julianne Moore
Movie studios aren't making too many dramas anymore they're in the superhero business. Material for television is much, much stronger for actors now.
Julianne Moore
The thing about 50 is that you've clearly reached a point where you have more of your life behind you than ahead of you, and that's a very different place to be in. You're thinking, 'I've done most of it.' I don't like that feeling. But it makes you evaluate your life and go, 'Am I doing what I want to do? Am I spending my time the way I want?'
Julianne Moore
I'm at the mercy of others because I'm not a director. I'm not a producer. I'm not a writer.
Julianne Moore
Men aren't asked about their children.
Julianne Moore
I'm not supposed to communicate something that's completely unrealistic.
Julianne Moore
You have to remember that Hollywood is in the business of making movies that they can sell tickets to, they're not in the business of finding great roles for actors.
Julianne Moore
One of the things that I love about L'Oréal is that it's accessible and aspirational. Beauty doesn't have to be a mystery, and it can be available to everybody. But it's also about accessing what is most innately human, what we think is attractive.
Julianne Moore
Ever since there's been a Hollywood, they remake a movie every 20 years.
Julianne Moore
We impose order and narrative on everything in order to understand it. Otherwise, there's nothing but chaos.
Julianne Moore
