More quotes by Nicole Kidman
When someone starts talking to me about the truth, what I hear is what they're telling me about themselves.
Nicole Kidman
I yearn for things, but at the same time I am just peaceful.
Nicole Kidman
As an actor you're only as good as the things you're offered. And there just weren't any female directors offering me things. So when you dissect that, you realize there aren't women offering you things because they don't have the opportunities. I work to raise money for women's cancers I use my voice for violence against women.
Nicole Kidman
You're either going to walk through life and experience it fully or you're going to be a voyeur. And I'm not a voyeur.
Nicole Kidman
I find standing and posing for photos very awkward.
Nicole Kidman
I've always loved the drama and the creating of a role and performance and all that comes with that, but I then also kind of like to have just the white picket fence life if that makes sense.
Nicole Kidman
I'm drawn to the psychology of really interesting, flawed people.
Nicole Kidman
LIfe has got all those twists and turns. You've got to hold on tight and off you go.
Nicole Kidman
I didn't do so well in the academic world, so I think the only way I could express myself was through visual art - anything I could get my hands on, whether it was glassblowing, sculpture, painting, or photography. I always wanted to be a painter. Or a farmer.
Nicole Kidman
I jump out of planes, I could be covered in cockroaches, I do all sorts of things, but I just don't like the feel of butterflies' bodies.
Nicole Kidman
Acting runs through my blood. There is some sort of creative desire to express myself and I would need that outlet. Otherwise I would be a nightmare to live with
Nicole Kidman
I would rather be tough on myself than have other people be tough on me.
Nicole Kidman
When falling in love I think you should say to yourself, ‘I am going to do this fully.’ I love to the fullest extent that I possibly can - and why not?... Maybe this means there is going to be pain, but I am willing to accept the pain.
Nicole Kidman
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
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.
Nicole Kidman
I do research. I do emotional sort of Method work. Somehow it’s a huge mishmash of things that becomes my own acting process and my own way of navigating through something. But ultimately the desire is to be honest, and for that truth to bleed through into your work and onto the screen.
Nicole Kidman
I'm reserved. I'm more of an introvert than an extrovert.
Nicole Kidman
You have to love, without judgment, every actor that you're working with to make beauty.
Nicole Kidman
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.
Nicole Kidman
I don't really make decisions, I go with the flow.
Nicole Kidman
