Going to a party, for me, is as much a learning experience as, you know, sitting in a lecture. - Natalie Portman

I don't know who would not classify themselves as a romantic. I think that would be sort of sad. - Natalie Portman
There are movies where we are interested in seeing people's lives without agreeing with what they're doing. - Natalie Portman
I'm not convinced about marriage. Divorce is so easy, and that fact that gay people are not allowed to marry takes much of the meaning out of it. Committing yourself to one person is sacred. - Natalie Portman
I was definitely different from the other kids... I was more ambitious. I knew what I liked and what I wanted, and I worked really hard. I was a very serious kid. - Natalie Portman
I am not someone who sacrifice all for the cinema, my life will be always more important. - Natalie Portman
I don't mean to criticize anyone in any way that I wouldn't criticize myself. I think people should have fun, and have a good time, and enjoy the luck that we have to be lazy and dwell in consumerism. But I think that it's a balance. And our job as actors is empathy. - Natalie Portman

I think 'No' is a very powerful word in our business that is very hard to use early on in your career. But I also think I was pretty arrogant when I was younger... I used that word maybe too much, but it did help me with finding roles that I did like. - Peter Dinklage
I have a need to always make people laugh. I have a desperate need. I love a great sense of humor. The people I sort of surround myself with have that. - Peter Dinklage

Every person my size has a different life, a different history. Different ways of dealing with it. Just because I'm seemingly O.K. with it, I can't preach how to be O.K. with it. I don't think I still am O.K. with it. There's days when I'm not. - Peter Dinklage
