Famous Cate Blanchett Quotes about life..
- Actresses
can get outrageously precious about the way they look.
That's not what life's about. If you starve yourself to
the point where your brain cells shrivel, you will never
do good work. And if you're overly conscious of your arms
flapping in the wind, how can you look the other actor
in the eye to respond to them?
Cate Blanchett Quote
- I
live my life parallel with my work, and they are both
equally important. I'm always amazed how much people talk
about celebrity and fame. I don't understand the attraction.
I suppose I find the freedom in anonymity actually enables
you to engage in the world, which for me is the cornerstone
of an actor's tool.
Cate Blanchett Quote
- I
love strange choices. I'm always interested in people
who depart from what is expected of them and go into new
territory.
