Quote

You'll nip anybody who's coming at you with bullshit. You don't play around. You take this craft very seriously. It's what separates you, what separates an actor from an artist.

I'm not sure what the future holds but I do know that I'm going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said 'Nic, it is what it is, it's not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.'
Nicole Kidman
Image
I'm interested in going places that I haven't been. And I'm interesting in working with people that I feel are dangerous and sort of push me in different places.
Nicole Kidman
Image
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.

I love just sitting quietly meditating. With an hour free, it depends. I love getting down on the floor and playing with my kids.
Nicole Kidman
Image
I have always tried to be a woman who protects other women. I have a sister, I have daughters, I have girlfriends, and I was raised by a feminist mother.
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.

To appreciate the success you have to have had the failures. You have to accept that it is a journey and its not just tomorrow or the next day or next year.

I never like to tell people what they should take.

In particular, for my character, Celeste [in Big Little Lies], there was a way in which we wanted to present her, because she has sort of barriers that she has to put up for protection because of things that are going on in her life. Yet she wants to be, I suppose, very presentable but neutral.

Divorce is divorce and it's a really tough thing to go through, (But) I'd love to get married again.
Nicole Kidman
Image
Sometimes your mistakes are you biggest virtues. You learn so much from the mistake. Those things that you think are the worst thing that's happening to you can somehow turn around and be the greatest opportunity.
Nicole Kidman
Image
I never read reviews at all. I'm proud of the work I did.
Nicole Kidman
Image
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 drawn to the psychology of really interesting, flawed people.

I don't believe in having body doubles for a film.

The accumulation of experience gives you a debt in terms of compassion. I am very fortunate, and I feel dedicated to giving back to other women. Wherever I am now, I make sure I visit a women's shelter. But I don't want to do it in a frivolous way.
Nicole Kidman
Image
At this time in my life, I want to be giving to my relationships. And out of that, whatever work you do prospers because you have more to give. There's something very primal about giving birth. It puts you in a state of being very raw.

[As a producer] [Big Little Lies] is the stories of women that I know, and it was a way in which we could go to other women and say, Here's a great role. There's five great roles here. They're all complicated. They all deserve to be told, and are you interested? And that is rare.

You have to love, without judgment, every actor that you're working with to make beauty.

I'd rather walk a tightrope than have my feet on the ground.
