More quotes by 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
In Caribbean there is no middle class: you're either rich or you're poor. And the ladder to success is not really a ladder, it's a chain once you reach a certain level, you can't go back and you can only keep going forward.
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.
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.
Zoe Saldana
A child speaks more sense than an adult half of the time.

Music is a very big participant in everything I do, from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed.
Zoe Saldana
When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.

Zoe Saldana
