I could never write. I would just be too lonely. What's great about acting is, it's so collaborative.

More quotes by Rachel Weisz
Normally, I would do research. For The Constant Gardener, I played an activist, so I went to meet activists. You can find them dotted around. But with The Brothers Bloom, I couldn't meet a nutty heiress who lived in a bubble in a mansion. There was no one to meet. So this was just an active imagining, a daydream.
Rachel Weisz
It's really hard to make a good film it's really, really hard. So, the director's very important, and a character that can be described with more than one or two adjectives, maybe with contradictions. Contradictions are always good because that's truthful.
Rachel Weisz
If I'm just in dungarees, I don't think I would intimidate anyone.
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
I don't think balance is something you get from someone else it's something women have to find from within. For me, finding balance is still a work in progress.
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
In L.A., unless you've just won an Oscar or you're Mr. Studio Head, no one talks to you. Even at parties.
Rachel Weisz
When I play a part, I never think about likability.
Rachel Weisz
I was an English-literature major, and that's all about stories and narratives.
Rachel Weisz
Often Hollywood crews go into third world countries and I don't believe they behave well.
Rachel Weisz
For me, being a mum has been a really, really instinctive thing.
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
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
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
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
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
I go and see music all the time.
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 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 don't believe your soul mate has to share your politics.
