I really connected with martial arts. I'd always had a fantasy as a kid of being a ninja warrior, so it definitely answered that sort of need in my psyche, too - a need to be superpowerful.

More quotes by Milla Jovovich
When you're doing martial arts, you feel like you can master certain skills and be so much more in control of who you are, so that really appealed to me.
Milla Jovovich
Its going to seem idiotic to say this, but I think that at a given moment we all need a place to ourselves where we can refuge ourselves and cut ourselves off from the world.
Milla Jovovich
I was also an only child and my father really wanted a son - he's from that generation - it was always about kung-fu theater on Sundays and boxing games on the weekend.
Milla Jovovich
I did a film [about a con-artist mom and son] called Bringing Up Bobby that Famke Janssen wrote and directed. No one's gonna hire me for their [big-budget] romantic comedy, so it's up to me to look out for great indie comedies and show people a different side of myself - even if it's for three people outside of my family.
Milla Jovovich
My husband is like, Oh, thank God we didn't have a boy, because there's this train set that I've always wanted, and these Star Wars spaceships . . . They say, Don't spoil your kids, but it's one thing spoiling your kids, it's another thing spoiling yourself.
Milla Jovovich
I took my little brother, and we went from Beijing to Ulan Bator, and then took a helicopter to the southern Gobi. Streams, grass, and sand dunes to climb. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Everybody needs to go to Mongolia just to see what it is to be a human being again.
Milla Jovovich
Unfortunately, the small comedies I've done have hardly seen the light of day, which is kinda sad. Dirty Girl was a lot of fun, and I'm so glad it got picked up in Toronto. People really liked it!
Milla Jovovich
When I did The Fifth Element [1997], it was like, Oh my goodness, who is this character? I loved doing Resident Evil, but Resident Evil is Resident Evil with or without me. It's an entity of its own. It's not like Milla made Resident Evil.
Milla Jovovich
It was hard not to feel violated [in Stone movie], 'cause I have to go home after walking in these shoes all day. It plays a number on your head. Some days I came home and was really upset it was hard to see the baby [Jovovich's 2-year-old daughter].
Milla Jovovich
I think I'm a very pretty girl. I'm never going to pretend to think otherwise. There are even days I feel I'm fabulously hot and sexy. I'm grateful for my looks. My family is doing well because of them. I can make career choices and turn down movies because of them and I have been making money from them for 17 years. My looks are who I am.
Milla Jovovich
For me, having kids put so much into perspective. I wasn't so worried about my career and what I did or didn't achieve. Because, suddenly, I was like, As long as this baby is healthy and safe, everything else is fine.
Milla Jovovich
Before, being a model, it was just a job, and I was making fun of it. But today, I take my career more seriously.
Milla Jovovich
Music for me is something I prefer to keep away form the whole business part of my life. I feel like everything I do, in a way, has some sort of business around it. So with my music I can have my privacy. If people don't have to pay for it then I think they can be a little more open to new ideas.
Milla Jovovich
That was the action figure I was playing with. I grew up having this fantasy of being a superhero, being Princess Power.
Milla Jovovich
I feel like confidence is something that ebbs and flows. I was given a lot of love and attention from my family growing up, so for sure I had a natural confidence.
Milla Jovovich
I started super young, but when I think about myself at that age - what I thought I knew, and how priggish I was, how certain of things - now I realize that nothing is certain.
Milla Jovovich
Everybody needs to go to Mongolia just to see what it is to be a human being again.
Milla Jovovich
You have the energy when you're a kid to really fight for rights - that's why kids make great soldiers, right?
Milla Jovovich
If you feel like you're helping someone else, it helps you feel more in control of your world.
Milla Jovovich
What's interesting about the movie and characters is that they're one thing to the world and another thing in their heads.
