I am used to wearing corsets. Even when I was first starting out it was either Shakespeare or Chekov. Everything that I was doing involved corsets. I guess I am just not destined to breathe that deeply.

More quotes by Kate Beckinsale
I still feel like the person who shouldn't be doing this and everyone is acting around me as if I'm a badass all the time. And this still feels like a stretch. I realize this is something that is incredible. I get to do this and I get wonderful teachers to help me and it's amazing.
Kate Beckinsale
I remember when I did 'Click' and I'd see Adam Sandler's fan base. He's the guy that people feel that he's their best friend, so he's walking down the street and people sort of high five him and want to tell him a joke or invite him to come home and have a sandwich with them.
Kate Beckinsale
What's considered ideal in Hollywood is completely different than anywhere else in the world. I don't think you can aspire to it, nor can I. Everybody is retouched, stretched, lengthened, slimmed and trimmed. I could look at a picture of myself from the past and think, 'Why don't I look like that now?' It's because I never have!
Kate Beckinsale
Apparently, I'm very good at firing a gun without blinking, which is unusual. That's why so many action characters have to wear sunglasses during shoot-out scenes. That's my party trick.
Kate Beckinsale
I must say, I am thrilled with my fan base. For some reason some of them are quite young, so they are quite frightened.
Kate Beckinsale
When I first started working, I was very aware of the fact that I'd been to university and studied Russian and French and not acting. So when I started working, I'd started working quite young, I felt like it was important to treat myself kind of like an apprentice and do as many different types of things as I could.
Kate Beckinsale
I have a husband who literally worships me. And cleans the house. And blow-dries my daughter's hair.
Kate Beckinsale
The secret to everything for me is doing yoga every day. It does do nice things for your body, but it also kind of calms you down and chills you out. Other than that, I don't really drink alcohol and I always take my makeup off at night!
Kate Beckinsale
I'm usually the last person to know.
Kate Beckinsale
I don't have a big career plan. I just like to see how things come out, and I just try to keep going in different directions.
Kate Beckinsale
My daughter comes with me everywhere. I don't leave her behind. But it is hard. I mean, I think any working mother will tell you that what kind of falls by the wayside, you know, are the hours of sleep that you wish you had, and all that. I feel incredibly lucky and blessed, but I do sometimes feel like that exorcist lady!
Kate Beckinsale
Theres such a pressure on women that we put on ourselves and everyone else puts on us to look unrealistic and everything, but you just cant compare yourself to people in magazines.
Kate Beckinsale
I think I like playing the bad girl. I like complicated. I like flawed, messed up complicated. It's more interesting.
Kate Beckinsale
I think actors always like to think they don't bring the character home, and then their family all laugh and tell you otherwise.
Kate Beckinsale
With every project you do, you bring out a part of yourself, and it seems to be quite a good way of expanding a person.
Kate Beckinsale
It is very different. I mean, it was immediately different because it's a human being and it's not a vampire and it's not fighting monsters. This isn't the kind of movie that's got the comic book style of fighting to it. It was a bit more gritty.
Kate Beckinsale
I always felt that anorexia was the form of breakdown most readily available to adolescent girls.
Kate Beckinsale
I would say probably my least favorite costume ever was in 'Van Helsing.' That was a huge pain because it had thigh-high boots with 30 buckles on them that had to be done up individually.
Kate Beckinsale
I find American behaviour...odd
Kate Beckinsale
Someone once said that you can make the choice between getting old and getting creepy, and I think getting old is the way to go.
