Quote

It was very natural for me to want to disappear into dark theater, I am really very shy. That is something that people never seem to fully grasp because, when you are an actor, you are meant to be an exhibitionist.

I don't like changing with the wind I like sticking to my own self.
Nicole Kidman

I've just always been interested in how people lead their lives. How they survive in this world. I'm curious about people's damage, and navigating that and the way people forgive. I find it really interesting. That's why we have to transform on a daily basis, work on ourselves. It's work.

I think that the most difficult thing is allowing yourself to be loved, so receiving the love and feeling like you deserve it is a pretty big struggle. I suppose that's what I've learnt recently, to allow myself to be loved.
Nicole Kidman

I'm a person that carries everything that happened to me in my past, with me into the future. I refuse to let it make me bitter. I still completely believe in love and I remain open to anything that will happen to me.

I think actors are getting so much more power these days, but I'm not. I stay very much away from the decisions, the way in which things are orchestrated, what's been changed. I just try to stay completely in the role as the actor and as the character.

They've said I'm gay, they've said everyone is gay. I personally don't believe in doing huge lawsuits about that stuff. Tom does. That's what he wants to do, that's what he's going to do. You do not tell Tom what to do. He is a force to be reckoned with.
Nicole Kidman
Image
I have a little bit of a belly, a tiny bit of pooch. It's the one thing I don't want to lose. I just like having some softness. If I lose that, then Tom might leave me.

These different people that I play become the loves of my life.

When I was working with Stanley Kubrick [on Eyes Wide Shut], he would always say, You never tell the audience what to feel. Let them choose to have their responses.
Nicole Kidman
Image
I love acting but I don't like all of the other stuff associated with it. The interest in celebrities, the press, the Internet, when your identity becomes mixed up in the way people are perceiving you.
Nicole Kidman
Image
I do have to say my daughter, Sunday, said to me [I was being] overprotective, so you must have been a fly on the wall.
Nicole Kidman
Image
It's good to have a little distance. If you discuss your love too much, it just damages it.
Nicole Kidman
Image
Dealing with these emotions as an actress is like being a boxer put into the ring.

If I ever feel that this is dangerous or I'm scared of it, then that probably draws me more towards it.
