I'm learning the power of going away for the weekend and keeping myself company.
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
Science fiction is a genre that no everyone is keen on watching.
Zoe Saldana
I just want to be a part of great stories, whether I'm part of an amazing ensemble cast or I'm leading it or the antagonist or whatever.

There was this book that Judi Dench wrote that said there was a moment where, before an actor can be this or be that, the actor must simply be. I thought that to have absolute presence was to absorb everything that’s thrown at you.

I get along very well with animals and children. I dig them, I get them.
Zoe Saldana
It takes a lot of courage to face up to things you can't do because we feed ourselves so much denial.

For the actor's wishes to be respected in terms of characteristics that your character's gonna have, you have to work with good and intelligent and talented stunt people that not only can carry weapons well but can also carry a personality.
Zoe Saldana
I like to be around people who are very passionate. People that won't fight but that will be very over-protective and outspoken about their opinion, their point of view, their ideas.
Zoe Saldana
I don't like things like little sandals that look fragile. I like to look strong and commanding.
Zoe Saldana
I'm a girl from Queens. I've never gone, 'What am I doing today? Oh, I'm gonna grab a gun and learn how to use it.'
Zoe Saldana
Not to settle. If you're not happy with a person, leave. And wait until you find that one person who makes you feel good about yourself every single day and is not expecting you to change, but to grow.
Zoe Saldana
I never really watched the TV series.
Zoe Saldana
You have to be very committed and find happiness in the work that you do.
Zoe Saldana
When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.
Zoe Saldana
I knew who Leonard Nimoy was, and that he embodied what Star Trek meant to all the fans. But it wasn't until I started doing my research for this movie, and started going to fan sites, that I began to fall in love with these characters.
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.
