More quotes by Julianne Moore
What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.
Julianne Moore
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.
Julianne Moore
Loving someone is giving them the power to break your heart, but trusting them not to.
Julianne Moore
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
Julianne Moore
In grade school I was a complete geek. You know, there's always the kid who's too short, the one who wears glasses, the kid who's not athletic. Well, I was all three.
Julianne Moore
I was the kid who read a lot and who was academic, and who was more of an indoor person than an outdoor person. I would win the summer reading contest at the library.
Julianne Moore
If you're 50, you're never going to be 50 ever again, so enjoy being 50. If you sit through the year wishing you were younger, before you know it, it's going to be over, and you're going to be 51.
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
Either you like a person or you don't like a person. I don't have to love somebody to work with them. I'm a professional person. But when you get the bonus of really liking someone and really connecting with them and really enjoying them, it's a fantastic thing.
Julianne Moore
I was a bookworm, and very skinny with big, thick glasses. I never went on dates and guys were afraid of me because I was smart. So I got contact lenses, started to dress a little better and tried not to talk about Plato with boys. It worked!
Julianne Moore
There was a period of time in America where the advertising world actually went to the housewives of America and had them write jingles that would appeal to them. It was actually brilliant marketing.
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'm at the mercy of others because I'm not a director. I'm not a producer. I'm not a writer.
Julianne Moore
You know, comedy's hard. With drama, you have a responsibility to the emotional truth, but with comedy, you have emotional truth and you have technique on top of it.
Julianne Moore
I've heard it said that winning an Oscar means you live five years longer. If that's true I want to thank the academy because my husband is younger than me.
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
It's pretty boring, working by yourself. The scene happens in between the two of you, and then you don't know what it's going to be because it's a kind of combustion. So, you do take something from every actor you work with.
Julianne Moore
I've always wanted to go where the work was or where I was wanted. The idea that it can be planned is one I let go of a long time ago.
Julianne Moore
We impose order and narrative on everything in order to understand it. Otherwise, there's nothing but chaos.
Julianne Moore
I always say about acting: the audience doesn't come to see you, they come to see themselves. So if you're able to give them an experience where they feel, 'Oh, my gosh, that's me, that's my story, they know!' then you've done your job.
