More quotes by Mia Wasikowska
Dance is such a stressful environment.
Mia Wasikowska
Someone once told me to believe 5 percent of what everybody tells you.
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
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 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
The independent films are really where I kind of come from and where I feel comfortable. It's never been about the blockbusters and making a huge tonne of money. It's always been about wanting to do projects about the things that I think are important to be out there.
Mia Wasikowska
Coming from dance, I feel acting is - I'm not going to say easy, because it's not. But the dance world is more hard-core.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
Acting really suited me because I could connect as an actor to emotion.
Mia Wasikowska
You never choose the way that you're raised, it's just the way that you were raised, but you do get to a certain age where you're in a position to question the expectations of you and the way that you've been formed by your surroundings.
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
I was a bit of a loner as a teenager. I never went to a single social event, because they terrified me.
Mia Wasikowska
I like to be absorbed in what my character's doing.
Mia Wasikowska
Doing an accent removes you from yourself and reminds you, every instant, that you're playing a part.
Mia Wasikowska
As an actor you have to wait for someone to cast you, so you're relying on the business.
Mia Wasikowska
I come from a background of independent films.
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
When you dance intensely, you are really aware of your physicality, and that's always great to have as a tool, when you're an actress.
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
There's a whole language to movement and how you embody someone, and how you can use different techniques for different characters. I guess just posture, and the way you walk, and the way you physically are. All of that says a lot about who someone is.
Mia Wasikowska
