More quotes by Mia Wasikowska
With dance, you learn to channel nerves into energy, excited energy. It's sort of similar when you walk into an audition room, to be able to go takes deep breath and then go in real calm. It was in those ways that it really helped me.
Mia Wasikowska
He [directo Park] gave me a sculpture, a jaguar. It is the animal, obviously, and it is in my bedroom at my parents' place at the moment. But I am just about to move into my own place and I shall put it somewhere there. I shall make sure it has good lighting. This will be my first place of my own and I am so excited.
Mia Wasikowska
It's hard to tell what people realize. Everybody's different and has a different understanding of the difference in times.

Director Park always talked to me about her in a very innocent way, that the story was of her coming of age and her sexual awakening and her going from girl to woman and that she had the same desires and hopes as other young people in terms of being very infatuated, which comes in the form of her uncle, which is very unconventional.

Dancers are kept in a perpetual state of pre-puberty, and for young girls in particular, that type of pressure breeds insecurities.

To have a creative outlet that you can control is really important because you do a lot of waiting to be cast, then waiting to go into production, and then waiting on set.

Feminism is just about equality, really, and there's so much stuff attached to the word, when it's actually so simple. I don't know why it's always so bogged down.
Mia Wasikowska
Ballet has really helped me in every acting role. You have to be very disciplined, you have to be able to control your nerves and perform under pressure, and all those things you have to use in acting when you're on film or going for an audition.
Mia Wasikowska
I want to just do my job and do it well.
Mia Wasikowska
I like to do projects that challenge me, and hopefully in turn challenge the audience, or open your eyes to something you're not aware of.
Mia Wasikowska
I think it's possible to have the kind of career you really want if you want to. You just don't do the things you don't want to and you just have to be cool with waiting for something to come around that you really feel passionate for.
Mia Wasikowska
Everybody is completely different. I think there is no formula for filmmaking. Everybody finds their own way of doing things.
Mia Wasikowska
I always collect a bunch of images for every film that I do, that reminds me of an essence of the character, or the time that they live in, or what they're experiencing.
Mia Wasikowska
I come from a background of independent films.
Mia Wasikowska
I think that I burnt myself out a little bit with my dancing because I did so much of it. I was exhausted so thought that I would try a different kind of performance and expression and acting seemed like a close fit it was similar in some ways to dancing. My mum showed me some really good films and so I became interested in films and acting.
Mia Wasikowska
Any time you get a role that's a young person, that resembles what it's like to be a teenager, I always kind of jump at it.
Mia Wasikowska
It's really rare to get a teenage role that resembles something of what it's like to be a young person, that isn't a cliché or a stereotype.
Mia Wasikowska
Traveling to Russia and Germany and being able to see the world at a young age was really cool for me, and I really liked that.
Mia Wasikowska
Dance is such a stressful environment.
