More quotes by 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.

Where I live, nobody who's fourteen is having sex and doing major drugs. And I think if you see it in the movies, you may be influenced by it. I think it's so important to preserve your innocence.
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
The best thing you can hope for, when you make a movie and you put your soul into it, is that people respond to it well.
Natalie Portman
Hillary Clinton has a real history of uniting people, of being able to work with both Republicans and Democrats, of trying to fight for people's equal rights. Whereas we really see the polar opposite in her opponent.
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
Going to a party, for me, is as much a learning experience as, you know, sitting in a lecture.
Natalie Portman
Ninety per cent of how you learn is watching great people. When you are surrounded by good actors it lifts your performance.
Natalie Portman
I have nice ears. I have no lobes, which was disappointing for a while, but I've gotten over it and learned to love them. Being lobeless isn't the end of the world
Natalie Portman
It's always strange being a kid on the set, because you're treated like an equal when you're working. But then when you break, the other actors go back to their trailers to take naps and drink beer, and I have to, like, go do school.
Natalie Portman
You have to be careful when you're getting feedback because people will give you conflicting feedback all the time, but ultimately you end up following your own inner guide.
Natalie Portman
It's a lot easier to make friends when you're younger, because kids are a lot less judgmental than adults. They're more like, O.K., let's be friends. Not, So, what's your job? What's your marriage status?
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.
