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.

More quotes by Natalie Portman
If you read, your book is kind of your friend, because it's like the book is telling you its story and you're being the listener.
Natalie Portman
Even my life's not normal because I'm acting, right?
Natalie Portman
It doesn't matter if you mean to do the right thing - if you only do bad things. You need to learn how to do right things. Doing is what affects people.
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
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
Hillary Clinton wants to push for equal pay and for paid family leave and for better and cheaper childcare.
Natalie Portman
Your director is your everything and you devote yourself to them and you want to help create their vision.
Natalie Portman
I'm really good at mini-golf. You know, maybe not big person golf, but little person golf.
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
Smart women love smart men more than smart men love smart women.
Natalie Portman
Everyone has to find what is right for them, and it is different for everyone. Eating for me is how you proclaim your beliefs three times a day. That is why all religions have rules about eating. Three times a day, I remind myself that I value life and do not want to cause pain to or kill other living beings. That is why I eat the way I do.
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
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
Your relationship with your husband should be an important part of your private life, but publicly you should be able to define yourself.
Natalie Portman
I'd say I got three or four offers for films that had female directors, so in my career I haven't had that opportunity before. That's exciting.
Natalie Portman
I'm going to college. I don't care if it ruins my career. I'd rather be smart than a movie star.
Natalie Portman
I grew up in the classic American-Jewish suburbia, which has a whole different sense of what it means to be Jewish than anywhere else in the world.
Natalie Portman
The more money a woman has, the more educated she is, and the more educated she is, the more she knows about how to prevent pregnancy, and also has more reproductive control - she feels a greater ability to say no to a man when she doesn't have to depend on him for money.
Natalie Portman
I campaigned for Hillary Clinton when she was in the primaries against [Barack] Obama, actually.
Natalie Portman
I think that we, women, are so often defined by who our husbands are and what our husbands do. And it's time for that to end.
