I'm not confident around compliments or being celebrated, and I'm not comfortable with the thought of envy, which some people thrive on.

More quotes by Rachel Weisz
I don't know anything about science.
Rachel Weisz
I prefer being as far from the centre of celebrity as possible.
Rachel Weisz
If I went out in killer heels and full makeup, blow dry, the whole thing — anyone dressed up like that could be intimidating to men and women, really. It's so, look at me. Do you know what I mean? But I love women.
Rachel Weisz
I think if you ask the audience to like you, it's all over.
Rachel Weisz
The most interesting characters are those you're drawn to, then repelled by, and then come to understand. All that tension - I live that. But I don't plan the tension. It's just something that should happen.
Rachel Weisz
I haven't only been offered Hasidic roles.
Rachel Weisz
Seeing someone you know be good at something is really appealing. Seeing how Darren Aronofsky behaved on set, it was another aspect of him, the director. He'd never directed me at home in the kitchen before. It was just seeing a whole other aspect of someone. It was really, really exciting. I loved it.
Rachel Weisz
My real fantasy if I was to drop out would be to live in a mobile home and be a hippie and drive around festivals and have millions of children - children with dreadlocks and nose rings - and play the flute.
Rachel Weisz
Every new mother wonders, 'what will I pass on to my child'? Hunger is one inheritance no mother wants to give her child, yet millions of poor women have for generations. Help the World Food Programme break this cycle. No child should inherit hunger.
Rachel Weisz
I've always been fascinated by activists, people who will devote their life to a cause, people who go to India and to Africa and put their life in jeopardy to do what they believe is right.
Rachel Weisz
I'm thinking of doing more theatre. It makes me very happy.
Rachel Weisz
I just kind of muddled through in my 20s. I did whatever I got offered, to be honest, to pay the bills. I didn't really know what I was doing. There are some actors in their 20s who are very sure. I wasn't very sure what I was doing. I feel like I've only really just got going.
Rachel Weisz
I don't judge the character at all. It's a bit like being someone's defense lawyer - you have to believe in their innocence in order to defend them.
Rachel Weisz
That was me under the bath and the water being held down. The director wanted it to look as real as possible so he told Keanu, in front of me, don't go easy on her. So it was scary.
Rachel Weisz
I don't like travelling. Which is ridiculous. And it's not because I'm afraid of dying on the plane or anything. I just like to stay at home.
Rachel Weisz
I always do my interviews face to face.
Rachel Weisz
Well, I'm not at all like the tough, sexy femme fatale in Confidence but it's fun to play people who're really different from you, from different cultures and places. I suppose I'm a bit quieter than most of the people I play.
Rachel Weisz
It is a political thriller. It's very action packed and it's very exciting, but at the same time it's a very big soulful love story about longing and loss. They're not separate, they're completely dependent on one another.
Rachel Weisz
With a group of people, a troupe of actors in the theater, you go out on tour, and you're like a traveling circus. It's very sociable, and there's a real community, and it's very intense, and then you may never see them again. That was very appealing. I mean, it wasn't consciously appealing, but I think a lot of actors like that.
Rachel Weisz
To come to the Oscars for the first time and be seven months pregnant is quite a thing!
