More quotes by Zoe Saldana
If there's anything that I've always said about myself is that to me, it's much more important for me to get to work with filmmakers that I've grown up loving and admiring.

The biggest obstacle I've had to overcome is being a woman in a man's world.
Zoe Saldana
I'm very accepting with my age. It's like notches on your belt: experience, wisdom, and a different kind of beauty. There comes a day when you've become comfortable in your skin.

I've witnessed racism all my life. And of course there's racism and discrimination in Hollywood. You go for a part and they say, 'Oh, we really liked her, she's amazing, but we wanted to go with something more traditional'. As if I'm not a traditional American!
Zoe Saldana
I like to look strong and commanding.
Zoe Saldana

Zoe Saldana
Science fiction is a genre that no everyone is keen on watching.
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 have an amazing mother who's a real tough cookie. She taught me not to get emotional about [sexism in Hollywood], just be really practical and objective. Later, in the privacy of my own home, maybe I'll bawl or break some dishes, but you just have to keep going. It's not about fighting, it's about educating.
Zoe Saldana
I'm a very feminine person, but I have this hard shell, man, and I stay focused and don't take things personally.
Zoe Saldana
I find it really frustrating when people go, I want to be famous and glamorous like you. It's hard for me not to have a bad thought when someone says that to me, since if there's anything this business is not, is glamorous. It's only glamorous for maybe five minutes every now and then.
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
Our brains are very animal but also very strange and egotistical. We're narcissistic.
Zoe Saldana
It's ok to say, 'this is what I want' and go after it.
Zoe Saldana
Glamour is about feeling good in your own skin.

Call me crazy - I love elk meat!
