"I had these fangs because I had jaundice when I was a kid and I was put on so many antibiotics that my teeth rotted. They had to cut them out. So I never had milk teeth. That was tough, you know, being in school having photos taken while I was pretending I had teeth. It was hideous."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"From the moment this baby came into our home, those two dogs have never been more in love. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed. People keep saying, 'Oh, you're a single mom.' I'm like, 'Actually, I'm not. I've got two boys helping.'"
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"They really stay just characters to me. I look at them, and I don't see always the same person up there. And hopefully, people will see that too. Because it's very easy to bore people, and that's a killer. So hopefully that won't happen."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"So I did that for a long time in my career, and I waited for parts to play myself just physically down a little bit. But I do feel like I'm at a place in my career now where I don't necessarily fret about that too much anymore."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"At least I know that one film-maker in my career has had the initiative to come to me and thought of me as being capable of doing interesting and complicated work, and so I have a new-found belief that other film-makers will see me in a different way, the way that Patty did."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"And doing a film in that period, and having to really celebrate what they wore back then, how they sat and how they spoke. You know, what the etiquette was back then for a lady. All of those things are like putting on a wig and transforming yourself, which I love."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I grew up in South Africa and I would look at maps and we were at the bottom of the world. There was this whole thing up there. I was always reading encyclopedias about the world. So travel was something I was always attracted to."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I guess there are very few actors that I've worked with that I would like to work with again. You never think you'll have that chance and, if we didn't do Italian Job together, there wouldn't be another one that could be right."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"At the end, the realization is that she had to get to a place in her life where she could drop her guard and make peace with the fact that whether she had a small amount of time, that she had to kind of live it completely through, instead of living by the rules."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I only worked on Men of Honor for three weeks, but I walked away with so much. Because Bob is the kind of actor who gives you the opportunity to really go there. And we really had to go there. I mean, we were both playing drunks."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"And I was victim to that very early in my career, where I would go into auditions, and I'd be wearing a big T shirt, a big baggy T shirt and loose jeans. You know, to try and show people that there was more to me than just that."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I had called her up a couple of weeks before then, because I had heard this vicious rumour that she did not like the movie. It was very upsetting for me. I am very sensitive to that, because I am portraying her life and did not want her to be unhappy."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I have a problem with cabinets being messy and people just shoving things in and closing the door. I will lie in bed and not be able to sleep because I'll say to myself: 'I think I saw something in that cabinet that just shouldn't be there.'"
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I mean, I'm new but I've always been very interested in film making process and I've been lucky enough to work with film makers in my past that have been very encouraging to let me hang around. I get so emotionally vested - that the producer part of me was natural."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"If they ever do my life story, whoever plays me needs lots of hair color and high heels."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"My mom has made it possible for me to be who I am. Our family is everything. Her greatest skill was encouraging me to find my own person and own independence."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"Marriage equality is about more than just marriage. It's about something greater. It's about acceptance."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I learned everything about love, watching 'Splash.' That's why I'm still single, so thanks Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah for that."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"You know, I don't think any mother aims to be a single mom. I didn't wish for that, but it happened."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"Yet there's a hunger in me still. I'm like only beginning. I feel like I still have so much to learn."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"And I do think that earlier in my career, I did make a very conscious decision to make sure that I was doing work that wasn't necessarily given to me, and that people didn't necessarily think that I would be able to do."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I can only hope to be 10 percent of the mom mine was to me. She encouraged me to be confident and enjoy life. That's what I want for my son."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"There's nothing I despise more than people trying to be something that they're not."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"When I'm working I don't have room to think about myself and my own issues. It's really freeing. There is no room for me, which is really nice."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I guess because I pay so much attention to the physical part of the character, I don't look upon it as like Charlize Theron up there. I don't think of them as like Charlize Theron films."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"So how critics will perceive your film or your work, or whether your movie is going to make $100 million at the box office, or whether you are going to be winning any awards - well, you have no control over that."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"You can never get to a place of comfort in this business. As soon as you hit that little cushy spot, somebody's gonna kick you out. So I have a constant need to do it better."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I treat my relationships like marriages. The ceremony isn't that important to me."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"Countries and states which have capital punishment have a much higher rate of murder and crime than countries that do not, so that makes sense to me, and the moral question - I struggle with it morally."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I do not think that condemning people who murder and killing them necessarily sends out the right message."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I have been working a lot, and I like it. And you know, it's hard for me not to. I guess I've been working a lot because I get to play with brilliant people."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I have very talented people dress me and put my makeup on, stuff like that. But I do love that look, and I think it's maybe because I grew up on that old glamour."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I like what I do, and I'm very fortunate now to be in a very nice place. Which is that I don't have to work anymore. So the work that I do now is purely because I really want to."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I mean I tried to transform myself through characters throughout my career."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"I think today women are very scared to celebrate themselves, because then they just get labeled."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"If I don't like seeing myself on the screen, I think when I start seeing that, that's when I think I'll stop."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"Something I learned very early on in my career is that there are a lot of things that you do not have any power over."
Quote by -Charlize Theron
"When they watch a movie and they know that you're in a relationship, you just kind of watch that constantly."
