I look very different from how people expect me to be... Clearly they think I'm a great big fat viking.

That's the main reason I took it up But I do feel I don’t know part of, I suppose, my way out of everything, has been really taking care of myself. I think that comes from an awareness that my children really need me, and they need me to be the healthiest version of myself that I can possibly be.

Loving someone is setting them free, letting them go.

I just look better in simple black things.

I am incredibly passionate about my life, I am absolutely unable to hide any emotion. If I wrote a book, I'd have to call it 'P is for Passion'. I don't go in for anything halfway. My feelings about things are instant, on the spot. And my heart is always, always on my sleeve.

Having been here before and lost to be here and win, I've got to tell you, winning is really a lot better than losing. Really a lot better.

I don't go to the gym because I don't have time, but I do pilates workout DVDs for 20 minutes or more every day at home.

I've decided I am going to start loving my backside because I don't know anyone who does that. And for my daughter, I want to be able to say to her, 'I love this.'

I have a crumble baby belly, boobs are worse for wear after two kids...I'm doing all right. I'm 33. I don't look in the mirror and go, Oh, I look fantastic!. Of course I don't. Nobody is perfect. I just don't believe in perfection. But I do believe in saying, This is who I am and look at me not being perfect!. I'm proud of that.

The audience's reactions are more important: if people believe in the love story, it's because they love how we've acted. That's the most beautiful award. It's very important for me, people appreciating what I do.
Kate Winslet
Image
I'm a normal human being. I don't have any desire to change my body as a result of having had two kids. That's a good thing, isn't it?
Kate Winslet
Image
I've never understood the notion that actors and actresses should look great on-screen just because they're on-screen. That doesn't make sense to me.
Kate Winslet
Image
I don't have parts of my body that I hate or would like to trade for somebody else's or wish I could surgically adjust into some fantasy version of what they are.
Kate Winslet
Image
I have just wanted to be an actress. That's always been my goal. I didn't want to be famous.
Kate Winslet
Image
I think I'm developing a kind of subconscious loathing of the word 'franchise.' I just think of something that's packaged, something you can buy on a shelf and is immediately disposable. I don't know. It's a really weird word for me.

Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.

Very thorough in the rehearsal process but more in terms of just understanding the characters, understanding where the actors are at with discovering those characters for themselves, and just setting an overall emotional tone for the piece as opposed to necessarily getting things up on their feet or staging scenes.

When I think about somebody like Keira Knightley, whom I don't particularly know, I see somebody who is working hard, really trying to challenge herself and make smart choices in spite of people criticising her size and performances.
Kate Winslet
Image
I think I look nicer now. It's really weird cause when you're 21 you think, Oh God, when I'm 36, oh God, that's nearly 40, and I'll look really old and wrinkly by then. And actually I quite like the way I look. I feel OK about myself these days.

One of the reasons I've never done intensive psychotherapy or any of that stuff is that if there's anything in me that needs fixing, I want to know that I can rely on my own intuition to fix it.

The retouching is excessive. I do not look like that and more importantly, I don't desire to look like that.
