"I was like one of those nauseatingly nice children. I was very, very well behaved and boring."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"It was a challenge to be able to create a character without being able to use one's normal set of expressions. All the rubber and makeup attached to your face left you with only a modest range of facial movements."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"The problems come when your personal life and relationships come under scrutiny in the press and often very uncomplimentary things are printed about you."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"No matter how many modern parts I do, people still refer to me as Mrs. Costume Drama. Fight Club is a studio pic, and I've done very few of those. I've got a feeling it's going to change things for me."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"It took me so many years to move out. I'm definitely a bit of a Peter Pan, reluctant to grow up. It all seemed really nice at home-why change it? Part of me would prefer not to have any responsibility whatsoever."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"With the number of people I ignore, I'm lucky I work at all in this town."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I remember I did think, 'Wouldn't it be nice if Mr. Right moved in next door?'"
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I'm often criticised for what I wear. That's my main label in the press now: disastrous dresser!"
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I've never had white teeth. To be honest, I've never been told to do any of those horrible things - get your teeth whitened or your nose straightened."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"She looks like a warrior. I mean, Bellatrix does mean warrior. And she's also a bit of a fatale. She's the right hand of Voldemort, and the only woman death eater."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I was weird right from the start. It's just that you can't ever expect people to get you. And I do think that really did mess with my head, being well-known young, when you really don't know who you are."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I was a mixture of being incredibly old for my age and incredibly backwards. I was born quite old, but then I stopped growing. I lived with my mum and dad till I was 30."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I'm always attracted to lower budget, not because it's lower budget, but because they tend to be better scripts."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I liked pretending to be other people: I could reinvent myself, reinvent my own reality."

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"Wearing corsets all the time was completely incapacitating, as far as digestion goes."

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"My father fell really chronically ill when I was 13 and that's when I phoned up an agent and started to act."

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"I never really wanted to grow up. I grew up really young. I moved out when I was 13 - that's when I started acting."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"As everyone, you do end up becoming your mother, but also as you're acting, I find out you become every member of your family, bits come out without you really wanting them to come out."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
"The parenting bit is much harder than the acting bit. You just never know what to do."
Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter

Quote by -Helena Bonham Carter
