Famous quotes by Zoe Saldana:

"You need 100% commitment; you have to be willing to wake up every morning knowing you're going to [practice] eight hours straight."

"I'm a very feminine person, but I have this hard shell, man, and I stay focused and don't take things personally."

"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."

"I just want to be part of great stories that are told and for them to be relevant."

"I'm Latin - we start young, honey!"

"Every time an adult is going to write something for a teenager and you don't have, physically, a person who is that, you are always going to be a little off."

"I'm a sci-fi girl. If I can have anything in life, I'd want tons of great science-fiction movies and stories. It's so progressive, beautiful, and imaginative."

"I am hoping for a long career."

"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."

"I want to be in the small percentage of women who don't settle for conventional roles."

"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."

"To be seen and to be respected for my work and acknowledged as a true American Latina... means a lot to me."

"Music is a very big participant in everything I do, from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed."

"Being a former dancer, classical dancer, it informed me as a human being just in terms of the grace I guess. Ballet is a very graceful form of art. You also become very aware of your body and your mind and your body is working in conjunction. That kind of helps you in acting as well. It's not only using your mind, it's like making your mind communicate this character into your body so that you can bring it to life and physicalize it."

"I'm so intrigued by women throughout history where the significance of what they were representing at that time is obscured by the fact a man saved them or they were prostitutes."

"I love wearing men's clothing and underwear."

"I like to look strong and commanding."

"I think as an American society, when we're paying too many taxes or dealing with war, we don't want to see sad things at the movies."

"People think of Latina women as being fiery and fierce, which is usually true. But I think the quality that so many Latinas possess is strength. I'm very proud to have Latin blood."

"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."

• 1001 Ways - Holly Dunn

I've got to say one thing for you
When it comes to letting me down
You've always got some new way to
Tear me up when you come around
I'd have though that well had run dry by now
How many times can you make me fall apart
You could write a book about it
no one should love without it
1001 ways to break somebody's heart
I wonder if you just came back
So you can say goodbye again
After all the times you've done that
Why do I still let you in
How can it be over if it never ends
How many ways can you find to hurt me
How many times can you make me fall apart
You could write a book about it
No one should love without it
1001 ways to break somebody's heart
How many ways can you find to hurt me
How many times can you make me fall apart
You could write a book about it
No one should love without it
