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.

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
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
What doesn't feel okay to me, what feels a little bit out of balance, is when you want to turn yourself into something else - when you want to be another person.
Zoe Saldana
I love aging. Why would I want to be 21 for the rest of my life?
Zoe Saldana
I don't like things like little sandals that look fragile. I like to look strong and commanding.
Zoe Saldana
I want to have more sex, travel more, drink more wine and love life.
Zoe Saldana
I had to quit ballet because it felt like a part of me was dying inside.
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 find it really frustrating when people go, I want to be famous and glamorous like you.
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
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.
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
It gets pretty boring when all you are is the support system for a male character.
Zoe Saldana
A child speaks more sense than an adult half of the time.
Zoe Saldana
Physical roles give me a chance to learn something new.
Zoe Saldana
I'm learning the power of going away for the weekend and keeping myself company.
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 love the anxiety, the pressure of the loud room full of yapping kids. But I'm a kid myself.
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.
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.
