I had gotten to a place where I truly believed everything I was called: 'not sexy,' 'not funny,' 'too intense,' desperate.' All those labels they gave me, I took them because there wasn't a trace of my true self left.

More quotes by Naomi Watts
I'm not this dark, twisted person. Yes, I have my demons and this is my way of exorcising them. It gets them out - and better out than in.
Naomi Watts
Some movies are the kind you take home with you at the end of the day, and some, you can let go.
Naomi Watts
That's one of the lucky things about getting the success later on. I know how I want to dress, I know what kind of house I want to live in, I just know more about myself, and that's true about the roles I want to play and what parts of myself I want to express. You're just more in touch with yourself.
Naomi Watts
I was going on years and years of auditions and being told I was too this, too that, not enough of this, not enough of that, to the point where I was so afraid and diluting myself into absolutely nothing...
Naomi Watts
Directors are our teachers, and I'm always craving to work with a great director. They're pretty much the first thing that interests me about a project.
Naomi Watts
I think whether you've got children or not you're just more aware of others as you get out of your 20s.
Naomi Watts
I was never completely destitute. I think I borrowed money once off a friend, but I've always been quite careful with my money, having come from not much of it.
Naomi Watts
Female roles in comedies are usually quite silly, I think.
Naomi Watts
My spirit had been broken a bit over the years by my having to work on films I didn't love. Hollywood's a surreal place, and it really is an assault on your spirit.
Naomi Watts
I meditate. I do transcendental meditation and I have been doing that for a long time and that does just clear the mind. I am not religious at all.
Naomi Watts
There's a set of rules out there somewhere that says it all ends by 40. I hope to be able to defy that because I truly love my work.
Naomi Watts
Oh, I'm definitely a wild child.
Naomi Watts
The thing that I love about acting is the fact that I can help people feel things, know themselves or feel less alone. It's my form of expression, in the same way that someone might paint a picture or sing a song in that you're hoping that it moves somebody outside of their own way of thinking.
Naomi Watts
I felt I grew up when I was about 28. I feel pretty much the same. I get reminded when I look in mirrors that I am not. Hopefully, you keep growing and keep planning things as you go along.
Naomi Watts
Who are we when we leave our families? Who do we become? What are we capable of? That's something that never leaves us. It begins at that point in your life when you leave the nest, and I don't think we stop wanting to explore that question.
Naomi Watts
I want collaboration, but if they don't have a plan or their vision isn't clear, it's nerve-wracking. So, someone that's very sure of the vision is what you want, most of all.
Naomi Watts
I think when a man sees a woman who knows what she wants it can be scary, but it can also be tempting.
Naomi Watts
It'll take me a lot longer to read a script if there's no director attached.
Naomi Watts
If I have to produce movies, direct movies, whatever to change the way Hollywood treats older women, I'll do it. If I have to bend the rules, I will. If I have to break them, I will.
Naomi Watts
Liev cares about a lot things. Israel is one of them. We had the good fortune of going there a couple of years ago. To share that experience with him was a great pleasure.
