I was definitely different from the other kids... I was more ambitious. I knew what I liked and what I wanted, and I worked really hard. I was a very serious kid.

More quotes by Natalie Portman
I thought Hillary Clinton was remarkably elegant and intelligent and focusing on the issues even though her opponent was trying to bring the talk always to vulgar, low levels. Even his presence was bullying, was lurking, and was just mainly creepy.
Natalie Portman
I've been really, lucky and sometimes you think, 'Why? How did this happen to me - what did I do to deserve this?' And you realize how much it's just luck. And then you see that there's a lot of people who are not as lucky as you are, and I want to like share that luck, you know?
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
I honestly don't even really want to think about it [if Donald Trump wins] I'd rather focus on how wonderful Hillary Clinton is.
Natalie Portman
You can tell when someone likes you just because you're in a movie, because all they talk about is the movie, and all they talk about is the movie business.
Natalie Portman
It's always interesting to step into the enemy's shoes, and figure out what they're like.
Natalie Portman
Actually I want to scare away method actors because it's a pain. It's like, 'Come on, what are you doing? It's not real. What are you doing? Oh, you're really brooding. Okay, good. Go to your trailer. I'll see you in an hour.'
Natalie Portman
I don't have a normal job, so I really appreciate having friends who are writers and artists. It's fun to have a group of people you can call in the middle of the day to go for a hike.
Natalie Portman
Going to a party, for me, is as much a learning experience as, you know, sitting in a lecture.
Natalie Portman
I think mainly it's an optics thing: to be able to visualize a woman in a position of power. It's going to be wonderful for all of us in every field.
Natalie Portman
Even my life's not normal because I'm acting, right?
Natalie Portman
If I had known my own limitations, I never would have taken the risk, and the risk led to one my greatest artistic and personal experiences.
Natalie Portman
Even [Donald Trump] presence was bullying, was lurking, and was just mainly creepy.
Natalie Portman
People who take everything to heart trivia - the most capable of genuinely love.
Natalie Portman
As someone who was born in Israel, you're put in a position of defending Israel because you know how much is at stake.
Natalie Portman
If you're listening to music, then the music is your friend or if you're with a person, then that person can be your friend because you're communicating.
Natalie Portman
I hear, more than ever, people actively searching for women to direct, actively wanting to finance women's films, which is not to say it is easy, but I think it's been a great instance of how journalism has put pressure on business to be more fair between genders.
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
We live in a small world, and we all are affected by everything that happens everywhere. And to look at it less selfishly, we also need to be grateful for the luck of where we're born and how we ended up where we ended up.
Natalie Portman
I think Hillary Clinton has made great strides in doing so, even though there are people who want to bring us back to the '50s and still define a woman by her husband and her husband's legacy. But she has proven herself to be a force on her own and is an example to us of how women should and can be judged on their own merits.
Natalie Portman
