More quotes by Zoe Saldana
You have to be very committed and find happiness in the work that you do.
Zoe Saldana
I find it really frustrating when people go, I want to be famous and glamorous like you.
Zoe Saldana
I love aging. Why would I want to be 21 for the rest of my life?
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.
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
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 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
As an artist, I like working with filmmakers that have the balls to kind of imagine the unimaginable. Those are kind of the radicals that I identify with.
Zoe Saldana
As actors you have this trait to imitate very easily. I don't want to imitate anything or limit myself of finding this creature, this woman because I'm looking at magazines and I'm reading comics, and I'm asking people that are avid readers of The Guardians.
Zoe Saldana
For me, it's very important if I do action movies and I have a stunt person, to work with them. Not only by memorizing the choreography but also it's important to study that individual and it's imperative for that individual to study you because you're not playing two different people, you're playing the same person.
Zoe Saldana
A child speaks more sense than an adult half of the time.
Zoe Saldana
You need one hundred percent commitment you have to be willing to wake up every morning knowing you're going to [practice] eight hours straight.
Zoe Saldana
I think there are roles there we just have to choose them. We have to fight for them.
Zoe Saldana
Let's start creating better roles that accurately depict people we know so closely.
Zoe Saldana
In dance you use every party of your body except your voice. I wanted to start acting because I wanted to use my voice.
Zoe Saldana
I always strive to keep a balance with my fears. I don't like to be ruled by them. At the same time, I don't like the idea of living my life totally free of any fears. I like having that moderation.
Zoe Saldana
I just want to be part of great stories that are told and for them to be relevant.
Zoe Saldana
There comes a day when you've become comfortable in your skin. But God as my witness, I am going to try to do everything I can to keep this ass together for as long as I possibly can - without going against nature.
Zoe Saldana
The biggest obstacle I've had to overcome is being a woman in a man's world.
Zoe Saldana
There's nobody on this earth who can tell you that what you're feeling is wrong. They can tell you it's different to what they're feeling.
