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.

More quotes by 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
There's so much else to do in the world. To just be interested in doing films would limit my life.
Natalie Portman
Hillary Clinton has really strong plans, in terms of the economy, extending health care even further, making education more affordable, making smart gun law changes to prevent the kind of disasters we've been seeing on a daily basis.
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
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
I don't think I've ever been in love, I'm sure I will be some day. I've had enormous crushes, although I've never been into the Brad Pitt thing.
Natalie Portman
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.
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
I do think there is a sort of natural balance in nature between men and women, and that it's being thrown off-balance by the social and economic inequities between men and women.
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
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
As I get older, I'm more relaxed and less concerned with what people think of me
Natalie Portman
There are still vestiges of societal limitations on women. I tend to think that has to do with opportunities that are available - it says a lot that it's still sometimes the best opportunity for a woman to be able to advance herself.
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 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
Sometimes people say something to you and you're like, I respect you so much, I love what you do, but I disagree. I don't think that's right for the way I see it.
Natalie Portman
We have so much separation between feeling the emotional and physical side of sex.
Natalie Portman
I'm not really much of a genre guy. I think that audiences don't need that anymore where you just need a very specific genre. Audiences are very sophisticated, and as long as it's fun, it's okay and entertaining.
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
Sometimes just watching a person doing the things they would only do at home lets you know who they really are.
Natalie Portman
