More quotes by Rachel Weisz
I think mystery is kind of great. I don't know anything about Bette Davis or Katharine Hepburn or Ava Gardner - not really - and I like that. I love watching their movies because they're my personal movie stars. I don't know what they eat and who their trainer is.
Rachel Weisz
I'm thinking of doing more theatre. It makes me very happy.
Rachel Weisz
It's also that comedians don't have the kind of narcissism that actors have. They're writers who perform their own material. It's more interesting. And they're sexy because they risk more. Stand-up comedians risk more than anyone.
Rachel Weisz
I don't believe your soul mate has to share your politics.
Rachel Weisz
I could never write. I would just be too lonely. What's great about acting is, it's so collaborative.
Rachel Weisz
I want to play interesting women.
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
If I'm just in dungarees, I don't think I would intimidate anyone.
Rachel Weisz
The bond between mother and baby is so interesting. Women have been giving birth since the beginning of time, but when it happens to you it feels like a miracle.
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 find Hollywood really toxic.
Rachel Weisz
I haven't only been offered Hasidic roles.
Rachel Weisz
I didn't think the teachers had the right to tell me what to do. I would just disobey, talk in the classroom, get very bad grades.
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
When I play a part, I never think about likability.
Rachel Weisz
I was offered more work after the Oscar. When I was younger, I would take whatever I was offered because it was money and work and experience. In a way, choosing is the hard part. I know that's a luxury problem, but it's true. I try to go where passion takes me.
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
I'm not confident around compliments or being celebrated, and I'm not comfortable with the thought of envy, which some people thrive on.
Rachel Weisz
You know, you can't see or touch and isn't embodied. But they were all fallible, the Gods. And they would kind of rise and fall. You know, they all, like Achilles, Icarus, you know, they all had their high points and their low points.
Rachel Weisz
