More quotes by Zoe Saldana
I want to be in the small percentage of women who don't settle for conventional roles.
Zoe Saldana
There are a lot of magazines that are still sort of... that only cater to a certain demographic and only put certain people on their covers.
Zoe Saldana
You have to be very committed and find happiness in the work that you do.
Zoe Saldana
If there's any relevant influence we may have with an investor, with a studio, with a director, with an actor, I think we have to fight.
Zoe Saldana
I never like to get political, but when you have the ability, through your media, to influence a large mass of people, I would want to be a part of the evolving cycle of progress vs. keeping things the way that they are.
Zoe Saldana
I get along very well with animals and children. I dig them, I get them.
Zoe Saldana
Trust me: Studios, investors, filmmakers, they will shift because they just follow the money trail.
Zoe Saldana
It's insecure, and it's immature.
Zoe Saldana
I love skin. I don't believe the body is something to hide.
Zoe Saldana
I am hoping for a long career.
Zoe Saldana
Happiness is nothing but temporary moments here and there - and I love those. But I would be bored out of my mind if I were happy all the time.
Zoe Saldana
Glamour is about feeling good in your own skin.
Zoe Saldana
It gets pretty boring when all you are is the support system for a male character.
Zoe Saldana
Our censorship has sort of gotten a little too far. Too much censorship is just as bad as having none at all. Children need to be exposed to things, because if they don't see it, eventually, it's not like it's not going to happen, but it's just that there needs to be a balance.
Zoe Saldana
To be seen and to be respected for my work and acknowledged as a true American Latina... means a lot to me.
Zoe Saldana
When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.
Zoe Saldana
I was a ballet dancer for so long, but when I realized I had reached my limit and that I couldn't go any further I knew I wanted to pursue acting. That's one thing you don't use as a dancer - your voice. And the one thing I use most in my life is my voice so it's wonderful to get to express myself artistically through the biggest instrument I use.
Zoe Saldana
I would love to play Nefertiti or Cleopatra or the Queen of Sheba. We preserve more male history than we do female. We have to preserve [female history]. No more complaining. We have to do it.
Zoe Saldana
What doesn't feel okay to me, what feels a little bit out of balance, is when you want to turn yourself into something else - when you want to be another person.
Zoe Saldana
I think there are roles there we just have to choose them. We have to fight for them.
Zoe Saldana
