More quotes by Keira Knightley
I went through voice coaching. I was absolutely terrified. I thought my knees were going to buckle, and the first couple of takes I sounded like a pubescent boy. I didn't realise I was going to have to do it live.
Keira Knightley
The whole point for me is to change as much as possible. If I've done one movie, I've done that, move on.
Keira Knightley
I've always gravitated towards people who are extreme. Whether its drugs, or kicking down doors. Normally, the people in my life had to escape to get back.
Keira Knightley
I don't quite understand what Tolstoy's actual personal view of Anna is - whether he likes her or hates her, whether she's the heroine or the antiheroine.
Keira Knightley
Half of my mum's family is Welsh. I remember when I was a kid she used to read to me, and witches and wizards in books always had a Welsh accent, so I guess I took it from that really.
Keira Knightley
All through my life what I've loved doing is watching movies. I love the escapism of film, I love stories. So it is incredible to be able to be in them as much as I am, to see them from the first stitch in a costume to the end product.
Keira Knightley
I think everybody has the right to a private life.
Keira Knightley
Nice is the worst word.
Keira Knightley
I made a conscious decision to live my life the best way I could and that meant to publicise myself as little as possible.
Keira Knightley
Bigger films are more difficult because the number of people is so huge.
Keira Knightley
I'm obsessed with shoes. I must have hundreds of pairs...That reminds me- I need to go shopping!
Keira Knightley
You live with a writer [a mother], and you grow up with their words, their kind of fantasies, and I'd pretty much seen every single one of her plays, and been in a lot of rehearsal rooms, so it felt very natural and easy. It was lovely to get an opportunity to do that professionally as well.
Keira Knightley
I don't want to deny my femininity. But would I want to be a stay-at-home mother? No. On the other hand, you should be allowed to do that, as should men, without being sneered at.
Keira Knightley
I find it quite difficult on studio films because there are so many different executives and things like that that you have to go through, so very often getting that definitive opinion is actually quite difficult.
Keira Knightley
I always find it much easier when there's one person whose vision you're following, as opposed to many people.
Keira Knightley
I love costume dramas, I love performing in them, because in a funny kind of way, you feel more free. You know about the period, you can read the books, you can see the paintings, but you've never actually going to know what it was like. You can kind of stretch those boundaries a bit.
Keira Knightley
I would be extremely stupid if I said that my looks had absolutely nothing to do with what I do, it [moviemaking] is a visual medium. I'm perfectly aware of that, the face and the body help. Of course they do.
Keira Knightley
I went from everyone saying, She-can't-act-she-can't-act-she-can't-act, to an Oscar nomination. So there was something quite sublime about that!
Keira Knightley
The celebrity thing's completely crazy. I think I just have to move away or give it up altogether. I couldn't have kids in the situation I'm in now. But I could just do something else. That's probably what's going to happen. I made a decision very recently that I want a life instead.
Keira Knightley
I don't have a problem with my body. I'm not just going to strip off all my clothing, but if the part calls for it and I don't think there's any way round, I'm absolutely fine.
