More quotes by 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.

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
At the Golden Globes, they put all the bigger stars in the front the movie stars in the front, TV actors in the back. But even as a movie star, you can be outseated by a bigger star in any given year. It's kind of hilarious. You have to take it in stride.

Loving someone is giving them the power to break your heart, but trusting them not to.
Julianne Moore
Right before I met my husband, I always felt as if the party was happening somewhere else. And once I met him and we had our children, I was like, 'This is where the party is.'
Julianne Moore
People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.
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
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
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
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
What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.
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.
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
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'm not supposed to communicate something that's completely unrealistic.
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
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 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
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 like stories about people. I like things that are human and different. I want to be as engaged in my work as I am in reading a book. I want to be electrified by the films I do.
