I think we all want to really live good lives, and we all really want to have a healthy planet, although I don't know if we're supposed to be on it forever. Now, does that mean that we should be building rocket ships to shoot us into outer space? Well if we can, I think we should.

Anne Hathaway

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.

Weddings are important because they celebrate life and possibility.

If you're not someone who has a natural and effortless love for yourself, it's hard to let go of your desire to please other people, and that's really not an ingredient for a happy life.

Anne Hathaway

Love Life Yourself

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

Trust Relationship Good

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

Anne Hathaway

Life Good Ways

I gave up my struggle with perfection a long time ago. That is a concept I don't find very interesting anymore. Everyone just wants to look good in the photographs. I think that is where some of the pressure comes from. Be happy. Be yourself, the day is about a lot more.

Anne Hathaway

Time Good Yourself

Kindness is really important to me in finding my own prince - so are patience and a sense of humor. Without those qualities he's no Prince Charming!

Anne Hathaway

Patience Humor Without

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.

Equality Ways Way

I'll wear my mom jeans in public that haven't been tailored 'just so' yet, just because they feel good.

Anne Hathaway

Mom Good Wear

I used to believe that love was finding someone who would lead you through the deep water.

Love You Would

I think relationships are work, but love is a gift.

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

Men Love Design

You have to want to be married to someone. You have to feel that reciprocated. Marriage for marriage's sake doesn't make any sense to me, and I found someone with whom I could put my money where my mouth is, I guess.

Anne Hathaway

Money Marriage Age

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.

Life Family Young

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.

Work Good Famous

Michelle Pfeiffer in Tim Burton's 'Batman' was one of the most inspiring - I saw that and I was like, 'I want to be her, I want to do that.'

Anne Hathaway

Want Ton Tim Burton

'One Day' is definitely heartbreaking in a few ways, but one of the main ways is that my character and Jim Sturgess's character are just people from two different worlds who love each other in so many ways and can't quite seem to get it together.

Anne Hathaway

Love Art Worlds

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.

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

Anne Hathaway

Tin T Sitting

I remember when I was starting out as a young actress, thinking, 'Oh my God, I have the fattest face.' Now I look at those pictures and I think, 'So much collagen!'

When I meet people for the first time, I'm friendly but shy. I'm much less outwardly nervous than I used to be, but I still get anxious sometimes.

Anne Hathaway

Ireland is such an amazing country, and I have this little dream in the back of my head that someday I'll end up living there. When I've established myself in America and I don't need to live near the action, so to speak, and if you're good, the work will come to you. I feel very Irish; maybe that's why I've been so lucky with my career.

Anne Hathaway

I sing everywhere. I have a very patient husband. He says he doesn't mind. But we've only been married a year and a half!

Anne Hathaway

I still can't believe I'm the girl who got to play Fantine.

Anne Hathaway

A lot of people have told me, 'You're not this and so can't play that,' and I can't tell you the amount of times I've been told I'm not sexy. I just go: 'I'm a lot of things. Just because I don't wear my sexiness overtly doesn't mean that I can't become that girl for a role.

Anne Hathaway

I did work at Christie's for a couple of weeks, getting ready for 'The Devil Wears Prada,' getting people coffee and doing whatever they needed around the office. It was amazing. I got to see some wonderful art, and everybody was really nice. It was great.

Anne Hathaway

When I look back on my twenties, I just remember being afraid of everything, and in my thirties, I'm actually excited by things. And if things don't work out, you know, by the time you've hit your thirties, you've had your fair share of disappointments.

Anne Hathaway

I'm very aware of my own background. I'm Irish, French, and then a little bit of everything else thrown in, ranging from German to Native American. We're talking about tiny drops of blood.

Anne Hathaway

I love the short-haired lifestyle.

Anne Hathaway

There's something very addictive about people pleasing. It's a thought pattern and a habit that feels really, really good until it becomes desperate.

Anne Hathaway

If people weren't watching, I'd be so much more eccentric. I know it makes me sound weak, but rather than make myself happy and wear the silly hat and say, 'Oh, I don't care,' I actually really don't feel like getting made fun of. So I put on something boring and navy and go out and try to disappear.

Anne Hathaway

I used to be like everyone else and think the Kardashians are just famous for being famous. But I've been really impressed with how supportive Kim Kardashian has been of Caitlyn Jenner.

Anne Hathaway

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

I think we all want to really live good lives, and we all really want to have a healthy planet, although I don't know if we're supposed to be on it forever. Now, does that mean that we should be building rocket ships to shoot us into outer space? Well if we can, I think we should.

Anne Hathaway

On the scale of someone who's really laid-back about stuff and someone who worries a lot, I fall more towards the latter.

Anne Hathaway

I think that Jersey Shore is awesome. I've gone to Cape May every summer of my life.

Anne Hathaway

The whole beauty of music is that it goes where your words won't let you.

Anne Hathaway

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

When I was a teenager, I would have tried anything that an actress I liked was doing to get thin.

Anne Hathaway

I'm much happier talking with people than I am flirting with them.

Anne Hathaway

I love fashion; I love being able to have fun with it, but I think I need to get a little bit more organised before I ever become a true fashionista.

Anne Hathaway

I'm not very daring in my street style, usually because there's a photographer around!

Anne Hathaway

I've wanted to be a mother since I was 16, but I also just knew I wanted to have a career as well.

Anne Hathaway

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

I'm not one of those stars that goes out and literally dresses to be photographed. I'm kind of a 'what you see is what you get' type of girl when I dress. I go for comfort above everything else.

Anne Hathaway

I love it when people are able to interpret thoughts and feelings on fabric or some kind of material.

Anne Hathaway

I'm a homebody.

Anne Hathaway

I damaged my health during 'Les Mis,' which I didn't want to mention in case it seemed like I was courting sympathy.

Anne Hathaway

When I was in my early twenties, parts would be written for women in their fifties, and I would get them. And now I'm in my early thirties, and I'm like, 'Why did that 24-year-old get that part?' I was that 24-year-old once. I can't be upset about it; it's the way things are.

Anne Hathaway

When I think back to some of the most fun nights of my life, it was just me out dancing without a care in the world. It's a release, an outlet.
