Nicole Kidman Quotes:
  • On smoking: "I smoke cigarettes! Occasionally. It's an addiction, and I would say to anybody who was going to start, 'Don't.' But you have to enjoy life a little, don't you? When I see a great piece of cheese and wonder if it's better to eat it and get cellulite or not eat it, in the end, I'll probably nibble on the cheese."
  • "I don't want to sound like a woman from a lonely heart's club and I don't want to advertise. The children are my priority. I take them around with me - movies or baseball games or local shows - and that's not so appealing for any new man on the scene, is it?"
  • During her speech while winning a Best Actress Oscar in 2003: "Why do you come to the Oscars when the world is in turmoil- because Art is important... at the same time you say there is a lot of problems in the world and since 9/11, with people losing family and now with the war... I just want to say God Bless you."
  • "You should always be excited about what the future holds in store. Looking forward in life and forgetting troubles is the way to get on."
  • About her break-up with fellow movie star Tom Cruise: "It was the worst time in my 35 years of living, where all I felt was great sadness."
  • "I panic in front of all the cameras. My hands start shaking and I have trouble breathing."
  • "I have a little bit of a belly, a tiny bit of pooch. It's the one thing I don't want to lose. I just like having some softness. If I lose that, then Tom might leave me."
