More quotes by Natalie Portman
I think losing a child is unimaginable. It's every person's worst nightmare. It's unimaginably difficult. It shakes your faith in the world. It tests your optimism.
Natalie Portman
Pointe shoes are torture devices. I mean, ballerinas get used to it, but it was definitely a new experience for me. They feel medieval. I was very happy to stop wearing them.
Natalie Portman
As I look back on it, I'm glad that I had this false image. I was who everyone else - my parents, my friends, society - wanted me to be. I was a pleaser, someone who wanted to make everyone happy, to not let anyone down. Now, I'm not like that.
Natalie Portman
It's a big honour to have people be excited about a movie that you make. That's the one thing that you want.

Natalie Portman
I think you always need to be able to relate to your characters, but that doesn't necessarily mean...you have to understand why they do what they do, but you don't actually have to be like that yourself.
Natalie Portman
The good news is we have the technology and the tools to alleviate poverty on a global scale. All that is standing in our way is education and will.
Natalie Portman
The moment you buy into the idea that you're above anyone else, is the moment you need to be slapped in the face.
Natalie Portman
I mean the Internet is like the luckiest thing - we have everything at our fingertips right now.
Natalie Portman
There is a lot lacking on the intellectual side and on the values side when being an actor.
Natalie Portman
Obviously, in a friendship there are always things, good and bad, that go on between people. You can't take away what's already happened. And if it's something that's really terrible, I think you have to forget about the friendship.
Natalie Portman
I usually run three or four times a week now. Pretty boring, but it's so worth is. It's done wonders for my mood
Natalie Portman
I honestly don't even really want to think about it I'd rather focus on how wonderful she is. Hillary Clinton is such a formidable candidate. I think we're lucky to have someone as smart and capable and strong as she is wanting to be our president.
Natalie Portman
It's horrible to be a sex object at any age, but at least when you're an adult you can make the decision if you want to degrade yourself.
Natalie Portman
Why are they making rules that say my lover can stay in the United States if they're foreign or share my health care benefits because I'm straight - but if you're gay, you can't have that?
Natalie Portman
It's always interesting to step into the enemy's shoes, and figure out what they're like.
