More quotes by 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
It's ok to say, 'this is what I want' and go after it.
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.
Zoe Saldana
I think there are roles there we just have to choose them. We have to fight for them.
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
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
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 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
I had to quit ballet because it felt like a part of me was dying inside.
Zoe Saldana
I am fluent in Spanish and I understand French, Italian and Portuguese.
Zoe Saldana
I love being in space. I love being challenged by great roles that a company like Marvel creates amazing movies that no only give audiences an adventure but also give us as artists an opportunity for us to be challenged to embody amazing, multilayered characters.
Zoe Saldana
I love skin. I don't believe the body is something to hide.
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
I do believe in us as actors and directors and writers and producers and also as movie-goers. We have much more power than we believe we have. Without our ticket, studios can't make traditional decisions.
Zoe Saldana
I am hoping for a long career.
Zoe Saldana
The biggest battle that I have is being a woman in the world. That takes center stage for me.
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
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
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'm more of a guy's girl. I like having a beer in a bar, and I don't bicker or sit down and do my nails.
