More quotes by Rose Byrne
My parents weren't in the arts, but we grew up in Balmain, which at that time was an artistic, bohemian suburb of Sydney. It's a lot more gentrified now. It was very working class, pubs on every corner because it's right by the water so a lot of the guys on the ships and the boats used to go and drink there. It's very posh now.
Rose Byrne
Australians, we've got a very healthy sense of humor in us. God forbid we take ourselves too seriously so it's kind of a cultural trait.
Rose Byrne
The writing is so great on TV now it's such a pleasure to watch.
Rose Byrne
I have to rein myself in sometimes.
Rose Byrne
I'm in love with the city. You can impress an Australian with a city, but you can't impress them with a beach.
Rose Byrne
I think diversity for most actors is such a blessing. It's something definitely I've strived for.
Rose Byrne
I definitely had creative people around me, but my parents were more just very encouraging.
Rose Byrne
Anything can happen. Anything happens all the time.
Rose Byrne
With a comedy, it's so important to see it with an audience and an audience who really wants to be there and is enthusiastic, otherwise it can be quite a traumatizing experience.
Rose Byrne
I loved performing I was always trying to impress my siblings by being a clown. I think that came from being the runt of the litter.
Rose Byrne
I see some of the clothes from the '90s is back in fashion. That really freaks me out because that's when I grew up.
Rose Byrne
The actor's life, but also the Australian's life. We're wanderers. We like to walk about - we're curious people. I have felt that since I was a teenager.
Rose Byrne
I've always thought of myself as more of a character actress. I've tried to do different things, but I've always been under the radar and that's how I like it. I've been really blessed to work this long and I just hope I continue to get better and better and better and better.
Rose Byrne
The British are so funny. It's like they can't believe I lived in Hackney. 'You could live in Bondi Beach. Why would you want to live in 'Ackney?' But Hackney's fantastic. I'm serious. There are so many artists there. I loved the markets, the parks, the pubs, the diversity. It was a cultural melting-pot.
Rose Byrne
As an artist I just think comedic actors are really underrated.
Rose Byrne
You see someone on the street wearing an outfit and then it's on the cover of a magazine. I love. But, you know, I'm Australian, so I'm not too flashy or glitzy.
Rose Byrne
I'm ambitious but I'm not particularly competitive. I'll try to get roles, as I think it's healthy to go for things, but... I think there's too much competition between women already. It's important to have female solidarity and support each other and other actresses.
Rose Byrne
As you get older, you just lose that confidence and narcissism you have in your twenties. You realize you have less time on the planet, and you become cynical and less confident.
Rose Byrne
I'm absolutely as vulnerable as the next person in terms of being swept up in aspirational Instagrams. You just have to know what is fantasy and what is real. It's always good to have a diverse feed in your life and in your social media.
Rose Byrne
There's a lot of intensity when you're on a set. And then it just goes away and no one's giving you attention or flooding you with compliments.
Rose Byrne
