Anne Hathaway Quotes

Loneliness is my least favorite thing about life. The thing that I'm most worried about is just being alone without anybody to care for or someone who will care for me.
Anne Hathaway

Alone, Life, Loneliness

I've always believed in people's capacity for goodness. I still believe that people are good. What I'm not so trusting about anymore is their relationship to their own goodness.
Anne Hathaway

Good, Goodness, Anymore

Anne Hathaway

Truth, Big, Wanted

Anne Hathaway

Good, Thought, Until

Whether or not you agree with Ayn Rand - and I have certain issues with some of her beliefs - the woman can tell a story. I mean, the novel as an art form is just in full florid bloom in 'Atlas Shrugged.' It's an unbelievable story. The characters are so compelling, and what she's saying is mind-expanding.
Anne Hathaway

Art, Woman, Saying

I think fashion is a lot of fun. I love clothes. More than fashion or brand labels, I love design. I love the thought that people put into clothes. I love when clothes make cultural statements and I think personal style is really cool. I also freely recognize that fashion should be a hobby.
Anne Hathaway

Love, Design, Cool

I believe I've always been a big believer in equality. No one has ever been able to tell me I couldn't do something because I was a girl.
Anne Hathaway

Equality, Girl, Big

It takes a minute for me to let my guard down, but once I do and I get to know someone, I'm very open, very trusting. Some might say too trusting, because considering the amount of money that can be made from selling gossip, I could be very easily taken advantage of.
Anne Hathaway

Money, Someone, Gossip

Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.
Anne Hathaway

Life, Good, Makes

So as long as I'm a working actor, I can improve. I want to work with people that frighten me and excite me, and characters that I don't believe I'm the best person for the part but I'm still gonna try anyway. Those are my favorite roles.
Anne Hathaway

Work, Best, Long

What I've observed and what I've imagined - and definitely what I'm hoping - happens as you get older is that there's a mellowing, an acceptance that comes with time. I guess that I'll find out.
Anne Hathaway

Time, Acceptance, Find

I grew up in a pretty large family. We were really close-knit, so I definitely want to have lots and lots of children.
Anne Hathaway

Family, Children, Pretty

I have no aspirations of world domination through the pop charts. None at all.
Anne Hathaway

Through, Pop, Domination

I try to stay out of the spotlight as much as humanly possible, because I think that when actors, whether or not they've chosen it or it has been thrust upon them, are living very public lives, it affects your ability to get lost in their performances.
Anne Hathaway

Lost, Living, Try

I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with. And there's something wildy decadent about the young-star lifestyle, and I just don't really see the point.
Anne Hathaway

Family, Strong, Put

I was thrust into a really lofty, enviable, but isolated position with 'Princess Diaries' in that I could carry a film before I really knew if I could act.
Anne Hathaway

Before, Film, Act

I'd love to be an artist that's multifaceted. At the moment, I am not. But wouldn't that be cool if I was like, 'Yeah, let me pull out my guitar and play you a song.' I would adore that. I am so far not gifted in that way. But I am a very hard worker and a very determined person, so who knows?
Anne Hathaway

Love, Cool, Hard

I'm pretty good at remaining calm during an emergency. My house burned down when I was 12, which made me really pragmatic about what needed to be done. But I can be bad in that I compartmentalize a lot of emotions and push them away to deal with them at a later date.
Anne Hathaway

Good, Bad, Done

I've honestly been really lucky. My only jobs have been babysitting and acting.
Anne Hathaway

Acting, Lucky, Jobs

It's definitely a thing to be sitting there, getting a pedicure, and you look over and someone is reading an article about an aspect of your life that you know is not true. It's weird, it's uncomfortable, but I don't see it changing anytime soon, so I should figure a way to laugh through it.
Anne Hathaway

Life, True, Someone

Quite frankly, I didn't become an actor to become a movie star. I have never dreamed about being the most famous person on the planet. I just want to do really good work.
Anne Hathaway

Work, Good, Famous

We assume that we've come so far as compassionate citizens of the world if we do choose to read the news, yet the attitude towards life can be one where we put blinders on and forget that there are civil wars going on. It's easy to forget that there are so many people starving to death every single day.
Anne Hathaway

Life, Attitude, Death

Weddings are important because they celebrate life and possibility.
Anne Hathaway

Life, Important, Celebrate
