I find British men very gentlemanly... like opening doors. There is a certain chivalry about British men which I like, and I'm a sucker for an accent.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I can be quite surprised by what makes me cry, but it's usually spiritual things.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I drink maple syrup. Then I'm hyper so I just run around like crazy and work it all off.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
It's a compulsion. I'm always changing parts of me. Even when I was young, I wanted to change my hair color. I was so determined that I dyed my hair with Kool-Aid.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
The craziest thing I've ever done to get a guy's attention? I admit I stalked someone. I showed up at a restaurant where I knew the guy worked, and we were actually good friends and had lost touch, and I pretended that I didn't know he worked there.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I think love is the through line and it's universal and it doesn't matter what period of time, time or place, or people, that's something we all connect to. That's the thin thread that I think keeps it altogether.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I have a certain curiosity for life that drives me and propels me forward.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I sort of always had an inkling towards some kind of an art form. I grew up in a very small town, and I just figure-skated. My dad played hockey and I was surrounded by sports, but it wasn't quite doing it for me. I wasn't totally fulfilled, and I did a lot of skating.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I'm a hopeless romantic and I believe that you can find love in many different places and be very conflicted. I've discovered as I've grown up that life is far more complicated than you think it is when you're a kid. It isn't just a straightforward fairytale.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I definitely believe that you are drawn to certain things for inexplicable reasons, but in a very powerful way. I don't know what it is exactly, but I know that things happen kind of miraculously sometimes, and so I'm willing to believe that there's something pretty magical out there.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
It's the messiness of life that ultimately leads you to the most interesting things. Everyone asks what you would do over, and I don't know because then you have this story to tell, and if you did everything over and made it perfect, what would you talk about?
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
At nine years old, I was presented an opportunity to move to Toronto to train for pairs dancing. As soon as I heard that that's what it entailed, I was out of there. It's like a past life. I hung up my skates and never looked back.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
When you're playing music through the streets of London at 2 o'clock in the morning, there's something so cool and magical about that. It takes you to a special place very quickly.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
What I love about film is that everybody often connects to something so different, and things you couldn't anticipate when you were making the film, so you just make it as honest as possible.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
My mother's parents died when I was quite young, so I would like to be able to go back and know those people as an adult.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I'm from a very close-knit family, and there was something very... I guess you could say normal, about it, and I so appreciate that. We all ate dinner together every single night, and my mom stayed at home with us. I owe a lot to my parents.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
It's always disappointing when your work is not received as you hope it would be.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I grew up in a very small town and didn't realise till later that I had an adventurous side. When I went to theatre school at 18, I came into my own and let loose.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I was 12 when it really hit me. I did children's theatre camp during the summers and played a fairy in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.' The next summer, I played Clytemnestra in 'Agamemnon' and I was like, 'OK, this is amazing.'
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I had a lovely childhood. For family holidays, we went as far as the car could take us - we would drive to Florida, even though it would take three days. I didn't know we didn't have a lot of money because there was always food on the table. I didn't have a lot of stuff, but I did figure skating for a long time, and I always had my skates.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I don't really want to repeat myself. For the most part, I always want to be doing something new. But there aren't a lot of gritty roles out there for women, and they are so fun to play, everyone wants them.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
With any project I work on - not just 'True Detective' - I don't feel the need just to play a strong woman. I don't want the audience to say, 'Oh, she was so strong.' I want to play characters that are flawed and interesting.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
With a film, you just don't have time to build sympathy for the character. But I think we're moving away from that in TV. With TV, you have a little more leeway to allow them to rise and fall and rise again and be much more complicated beings.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
You want people to buy you as just about anything. So if they think that you're one thing, it's hard to slip into, you know, all these other things.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I love the exploration of someone who has such a different background from you. That exploration runs to compassion and to cracking yourself open and creating more understanding of how weird and amazing life is.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I'd grown up doing children's theater there, and I always imagined myself being artistic director of a children's theater company.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
What bothers me is our culture's obsession with nudity. It shouldn't be a big deal, but it is. I think this overemphasis with nudity makes actors nervous. There's the worry about seeing one's body dissected, misrepresented, played and replayed on the Internet.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I've had heartbreaking auditions where they don't even look at you. You're out before you're in.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
During a movie, chemistry is so important, and yet they just assume actors can fake their way through it. That doesn't always work.
Quote by -Rachel McAdams
I want to pick good projects, I want to work with great directors and try not to put too much pressure on myself and just read things for the story and recognize when I'm drawn to something for the right reasons and try to maintain some sanity. Sanity would be good. I'd like to have a little sanity!
