Natalie Portman
No one will ever love you as much as I do. Why isn't love enough?
Natalie Portman
I campaigned for Hillary Clinton when she was in the primaries against [Barack] Obama, actually.
Natalie Portman
There were, like, 20 of [Jackie Kennedy's biographies], which was interesting because they are not exactly high literature - they are pulpy.But the [Arthur] Schlesinger transcripts ended up being the most useful of anything.
Natalie Portman

We live in a violent world, but since the success of films like Pulp Fiction, it seems every movie has some violence in it, and it's now being used as a form of comedy: audiences are now being encouraged to laugh when people get their heads blown off. I just don't like hearing people laugh at violence.

Natalie Portman
I love being a mum, but it's much more intensive work than being an actress - going to work feels like you've got a day off. Not that I want a day off from being a mum it's just perhaps I had this impression before that mums don't work. But they work more than anyone.
Natalie Portman

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
I'm with my friends more than I'm with my parents, but I know more about my parents than I know about my friends. That's something you get out of living with a person.
Natalie Portman
I don't know if the scripts are changing so much. I mean, I've been working for almost 25 years and made over 40 films and I worked with my first female director, on a feature, Planetarium. And it's still the only one.
Natalie Portman
Ballet really lends itself to that because there's such a sense of ritual, with wrapping the shoes every day and preparing new shoes for every performance. It's such a process. It's almost religious, in nature.
Natalie Portman
And then there is Cate Blanchett. She is different all the time.
Natalie Portman
I think the press is doing a wonderful job of putting the pressure on the decision-makers in Hollywood to support more female directors.
Natalie Portman
Love is very much perceived as I couldn't control myself it's love. But you can. Everything you do in response is a choice.
Natalie Portman
