Cameron Diaz

I can spend hours in a grocery store. I get so excited when I see food, I go crazy. I spend hours arranging my baskets so that everything fits in and nothing gets squashed. I'm really anal about it, actually.

I love older men.

I love Shirley Maclaine. Love that woman.

I mean, I can get things done if I need to, but I can really be completely irresponsible and procrastinate until the very, very, very bitter end. In fact, sometimes I work better under pressure.

I will always want to do whatever it is that my heart is in, and whether I get paid for it or not means nothing. It doesn't matter. I'll do it if it means something to me and I want to be a part of it.

I've pretty much behaved like a knucklehead my entire life.

Oftentimes, in fact I think this is to my fault, I look at usually scripts as a whole. I should probably pay more attention to the character that I'm going to play and what they do.

Whenever I don't have to wear makeup, it's a good day.

I think I've become more comfortable about being a human being.

I grew up with a lot of boys. I probably have a lot of testosterone for a woman.

You never know what movie I will be in next, but let's just hope it's sells (for my sake at least)!

I don't want to go to work and get into bed with someone else, not even Tom Cruise. It's not like I enjoy it.

It's important to be active in the causes that are important to you... That's how we make changes in this world.

You don't want to be photographed? You don't want to be known? Then you don't need to be out there peddling movies.

My dad always used to tell me that if they challenge you to an after-school fight, tell them you won't wait-you can kick their ass right now.

I have to remind my dad, 'Journalists - no matter how many cigars they smoke with you - are not your friends, so don't talk to them.'

I haven't been worried about my image so much as I have been trying to find projects to push myself further than before.

Personally, I don't like watching violence. I'd much rather see more skin.

I am just at that stage of wondering where I go from here. I came into this business almost by accident, but now it has become serious. What started as a bit of fun, something to do other than be a model, has taken on a different career curve. I have been forced to ask where that curve is going to end up.

Growing up, I was the plain one. I had no style. I was the tough kid with the comb in the back pocket and the feathered hair.

Kids called me 'Skeletor' as a kid because I was so skinny.

I eat a cheeseburger with French fries almost every day.

I've always been a huge fan of Julia Roberts. Without her what would the world be like?

I don't believe you should make fun of anyone but yourself.

You haven't partied until you've partied at dawn in complete silence with Buddhist monks.

You get kind of bored being in catalogues all the time.

I would love a family. I'm at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.

I can't say this enough, I'm totally comfortable with my body. I like my body, I don't think it's a bad thing, I think I have a nice body, I'm happy with it.

I love physical kinds of comedy and getting down and dirty and doing stunts. When I was growing up, I was always getting into fights with guys and usually punching out boys my age because I was a lot bigger and tougher. So I'm naturally accustomed to putting myself into the headspace of a girl who can take care of herself.

I love the feeling that you get when you can really laugh with a man and be natural and not always think that there's a sexual element going on. For me, flirting with a man means making fun of myself and trying to open myself and be very unpretentious.

Women are capable of doing so many things these days, physically, emotionally, within relationships and career. There are so many things that women have evolved into and I feel really proud about where women are right now.

I don't care how smart a kid you are. The only way you learn what's not right is from experience.

I've been noticing gravity since I was very young.

I hate committing myself to anything. It's probably the lack of discipline, honestly. I'm probably a spoiled brat worried about getting my way every time.

Your regrets aren't what you did, but what you didn't do. So I take every opportunity.

People think I'm trying to make a fashion statement because I never wear a bra. It's really that I'm a tomboy at heart.

I'm like every other woman: a closet full of clothes, but nothing to wear: So I wear jeans.

I was a tough kid with the jeans, the concert shirt with the flannel over it, the comb in the back pocket and the feathered hair.

Script for an actor is like a bible. You carry it with you, you read it over and over, you go to your passages.

Everything's a risk, by the way, these days. Every film you make is a risk. There's no guarantee.

I think that anything that you do, any accomplishment that you make, you have to work for. And I've worked very hard in the last ten years of my life, definitely, and I can tell you that hard work pays off. It's not just a cliche.

I don't even own a TV because I think it's the devil.

I believe that when you're in love you have to pour your heart and soul out to your partner... or why bother? So in that sense I'm an incurable romantic when it comes to men.

I want to be a big, fleshy voluptuous woman with curves. I want a big bum, but I don't have one.

I've banged my head quite a bit. I liked Iron Maiden, Ozzy, AC/DC. And of course, Ratt and Poison.

When I go out, I love steak and caviar.

I did all my heavy partying before I turned sixteen.

I can't wait to be that age and hanging out with a bunch of people hanging out all day playing golf and going to the beach, all my own age. We'd be laughing and having a good time and getting loopy on our prescription drugs. Driving golf carts around. I can't wait.

Every casting director I've met is a woman.

Crowds are the most difficult thing for me these days because I have to walk with my head down and my eyes averted. There's still that part of me that wants to hold my head up, make eye contact and smile.
