Every character has their reasons - even the characters who do dumb things.
Zoe Saldana
Glamour is about feeling good in your own skin.
Zoe Saldana
I don't understand labels. I don't need anybody to tell me I'm Latina or black or anything else. I've played characters that were written for Caucasian females, I just want to be given the same consideration as everybody else, and so far that has been happening.
Zoe Saldana
I am fluent in Spanish and I understand French, Italian and Portuguese.

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!

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
Basically, there's not enough sex in movies, that's it. I'm trying to say it, people. I miss sex in movies because sex is natural, guns are not.
Zoe Saldana
I love aging. Why would I want to be 21 for the rest of my life?
Zoe Saldana
I don't believe actors who say they don't bleed into their characters. It's absolutely impossible not to.
Zoe Saldana
It's ok to say, 'this is what I want' and go after it.
Zoe Saldana
I love women. I worship women. Don’t want to be any other woman but myself.
Zoe Saldana
I just want to be part of great stories that are told and for them to be relevant.
Zoe Saldana
Sometimes we get too caught up in wanting to do that one movie that will get seen and approved and nominated, that we lose sight that there are so many other movies that are worth your time.
Zoe Saldana
I want to be the best daughter, sister, friend and wife I can possibly be - because when I die, I am not going to be buried with my Oscar.
Zoe Saldana
As a woman, you spend so much time either cooking or getting ready to go somewhere. I like to have music when I'm doing either of these things.
Zoe Saldana
When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.
Zoe Saldana
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.
