"Her beauty didn’t do her any good and she couldn’t use it in any positive way or manipulative way. I just hope that people will look and see and believe in that hope of love, that hope of freedom, even if it was just for a limited time."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Television is also a great tool for women. As you know, the best female roles are often on television, so it's a very exciting time. I've really embraced it. The pace is great, but also not so great sometimes. You feel like you have to make sure to pay attention, at all times, to not let anything slip through."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I come from a very small rural village in northern Germany, and being an actor never even seemed like a possibility. I thought you would have to live in a big city, or be discovered somewhere, or be born into an artistic family, which I certainly wasn't."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Orlando's a really cool guy. They hired him for 'Lord of the Rings' out of drama school. He's very new at this still and doesn't have a lot of experience. So we were in this together and we've tried to help each other out. We felt very equal which was good."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"The real challenge is to give a really nuanced performance and really push myself, to make sure that we see a very complete picture of a woman living with Asperger's. Of course, I'm always intrigued. I learn so much from the show about storylines that actually happen on the border."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I dreamt of becoming a ballet dancer. I studied with the Royal Academy of London for 11 years, and that did not pan out, but my love for being on stage was born there. And then, I actually went to drama school in Paris, France. That's where it first started."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Because I worked in fashion, I know that I like fashion. Haute couture is a form of art that I can appreciate. I'm definitely not someone who wakes up every day and thinks about what I'm going to wear, but on the red carpet, it's reflective of the mood I'm in, or the movie I'm going to represent."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Sometimes it takes courage and experience to allow yourself to actually go into being someone that you're not, and it's the most liberating thing to let go. I do think that's why I love acting - it's being someone that you're not. And sometimes you're really scared of it, and then once you let yourself go there, it's the best thing ever."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I truly, genuinely like clothes. Making them is an art form, and wearing them is a form of self-expression. I find it very emotional because I can remember moments in my life - my mood, how I felt - through these clothes."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I find period pieces really difficult to get my head around. How can we know what it must have been like to be in Nazi Germany in 1944? The reality weighs on me because I feel like you want to try and honor what happened, but how can you truly know? I have never lived in a war or lost anyone."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I realized through my personal travels how little I know about certain conflicts, because I was too vain or self-absorbed to ask the questions. That's been the focus while I'm in my thirties - to become an accomplished woman, rather than some actress."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I think Charlize Theron is just as good when she is looking really pretty in a movie as when she gains 10 pounds and puts on a nose. I applaud her - good for her that she doesn't care. But she's just as good, whether she's pretty or not."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"The ultimate art form of fashion is couture. I completely geek out when it comes to couture. It shows fashion as it used to be. I don't know how many people can actually afford the clothes, but in a way, that's beside the point."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"What I really tried to do with Helen was make her show this sad side of her. She was married off at 16, was so young and living in this castle that can't leave because of how she looks, and married to a man she hates and three times her age."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I think they went with the idea that people know the story pretty much- knowing that he's going to take her when she's going to go with him. Also, the movie is really focused on Achilles and Hector and their battles."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Critics can be harsh and I think it's going to take me a long time to make people see what I have inside of me and that I really put my guts into movies and that I'm not superficial and that I'm not just a pretty face."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"You should be smart enough to know that you don't know everything. But you have to believe in yourself. I certainly do."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I am a better person when I let myself have the time for romance and for love."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"My sport is biking. I'm not much of a gym person, but I like being outside - hiking, canoeing, camping."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I don't want to let my life as a woman pass me by. There's a time to work, there's a time to be young and crazy, and there should be a time to enjoy motherhood. I'm actually looking forward to that."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I play a curator, the most American part you can think of. My work is to protect the Declaration of Independence. I work at the National Archives in Washington."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I find that classical music helps put me in a place that is very calming and allows me to express emotion through my body. I played clarinet as a child, so I guess I have a bit of a musical ear."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I do give myself a break in my personal life but I think in work, if you don't push yourself you get bored and want to do something else."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"If you're with someone who makes you happy in your personal life, then you're happy with where you're at."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I don't have any romantic ideas about marriage. Trust me. A white dress... ? No. It's not something for me."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"In Paris, I rent a bike in the street and cycle around, and in L.A. I live up in the hills so I go hiking a lot."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I would do anything for a part, nearly anything. Being in movies doesn't mean being pretty."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"But quite honestly, personally, I was much more concerned - I mean, there's not much I can do about my appearance obviously other than spending four hours in hair and makeup."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I made a French film called 'Merry Christmas' which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I really feel like the first day I went to drama school and I went up on stage, that I found my vocation. It's kind of a cliched thing to say but I really feel like it was what I was meant to do."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"It must have been so impossible to think about it and dare to do that, so they feel compassionate for her. I don't think the movie would work otherwise."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Looking back at it now, I really feel like it was a gift because I don't know if I have the talent to become a prima ballerina. It's such a hard job to have. I don't have any regrets about it."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"The only song I can sing is 'Lady in Red' so that must tell you how great it must have been."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I grew up with classical music when I was a ballet dancer. Now when I have to prepare an emotional scene, to cry or whatever, I listen to sonatas. Vivaldi and stuff. It's just beautiful to me."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I have a kind of boring personal life, to the paparazzi anyway, and I don't hang with the cool crowd."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I have three goddaughters - I'm not sure why they trust me, because I have no experience with children - but I try."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"I'm very independent. I'm not sure how I'd deal with someone who wanted to be with me 24/7."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"For exercise, I tend to like the outdoors. In Paris, I rent a bike in the street and cycle around, and in L.A. I live up in the hills so I go hiking a lot. I like to stay fit by being generally active."
Quote by -Diane Kruger
"Freedom comes when you see the built-in contradiction of trying to manipulate something that is going right to begin with.... Stop trying to steer the river.""I d"I don't obsess about my weight. I just know I've got to watch it when my pants feel tight."on't obsess about my weight. I just know I've got to watch it when my pants feel tight."
