More quotes by Naomie Harris
I can't impersonate someone. That is not what I do. I can only take someone's essence and create a character out of that.
Naomie Harris
Mandela is this extraordinary individual who can inspire the world. Instead of wanting revenge after being brutalized, he showed the world how to forgive.
Naomie Harris
It's true about the eyes being the window to the soul. Your face can be etched with worry, and twisted by ageing, but the eyes tell the true story of who you are.
Naomie Harris
I'd like to believe that I would be able to give in the same way Mandela did, but in reality, I don't know whether that is true. It is much more likely that I would be left with an immense sense of injustice and immense desire for revenge.

Naomie Harris
I like to believe that we all pray to the same god.
Naomie Harris
When I have finished a job, done all the promotion, and it's been received well. Then I can allow myself the luxury of a break, and chilling out with my family and friends, and taking a nice break knowing I've done a good job.
Naomie Harris
Your boss is only human and just wants the best from you.
Naomie Harris
I never ever thought that I would be in a Bond film, ever, which is weird because I grew up loving these amazing movies.
Naomie Harris
Getting to travel around the world and go to glamorous locations is certainly not what I had as a kid.
Naomie Harris
It's more instinctive to want revenge, but we are also capable of immense amounts of forgiveness and love and a compassion that extends even to those who have brutalized us.
Naomie Harris
I would say only be an actress if you genuinely feel the calling, because it's a tough profession.
Naomie Harris
I have many different sides I can be the life and soul of the party - or a wallflower.
