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.

More quotes by 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.

Botox should be banned for actors, as steroids are for sportsmen. Acting is all about expression why would you want to iron out a frown?
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
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
Often Hollywood crews go into third world countries and I don't believe they behave well.
Rachel Weisz
I think actors have a choice of drawing attention to themselves or living on the outskirts.
Rachel Weisz
I find Hollywood really toxic.
Rachel Weisz
I don't know anything about science.
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
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 think if you ask the audience to like you, it's all over.
Rachel Weisz
In reality, the main thing that keeps me awake at night is probably the destruction of the planet that's what gets me pretty upset.
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 was an English-literature major, and that's all about stories and narratives.
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 do read movie blogs. I think what's really interesting - Probably everyone says this, but what's interesting is it, it takes away the power, from the newspaper magnates, so be it Murdoch or whatever. I mean, it's like the people taking it back. Isn't it? I mean, do people talk about this all the time?
Rachel Weisz
I love the international feeling In New Yokk. Different foods. Different people. There's everything here. Museums, theatre, there's so much to do I feel guilty about not doing too many things.
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'm not confident around compliments or being celebrated, and I'm not comfortable with the thought of envy, which some people thrive on.
