The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Thandiwe Newton
- Then I became a mother and it just fills every space, that isn’t filled with something else important. It’s just like this incredible balloon that blows up and fills life up.
- You need a good, healthy diet – it’s about finding out what your body needs. Sugar is a disaster for skin, as is white flour.
- I’m always angry. I wake up angry. There is a lot to be angry about. Anger is a positive energy.
- I guess patriarchal stereotypes have, as is true for most people, created painful moments in my life. As a result, I’m an activist. I’m for women’s rights, children’s rights, human rights, animal rights. I want to be part of the solutions to try to correct imbalance. And ‘Westworld,’ for me, is that.
- You see these casting directors’ lists of characters, and they’re all boxed in. Twenties is the hot girlfriend, thirties you can still be hot but moving swiftly to hot mum. Forties, you’re the legal person in a pantsuit. Then, once you reach your fifties, you’re positively elderly.
- I think when girls hear Beyonce, it makes them move and want to lift their arms up and be strong, be powerful. She puts this energy of positivity out there, which is good for people’s souls. I think musicians are kind of like shamans: they’re bringing the vibrations of a more spiritual state.
- I see a wiser person than when I was younger: having babies, and passing 30, were the turning points. What women in their 40s – I am 39 – lack in gorgeousness, they make up for in wisdom. I love ageing, despite the drawbacks – thinner, drier skin.
- We’re in this amazing frontier of transparency. WikiLeaks. Edward Snowden. ‘Westworld’ is reflecting that with these robots gaining consciousness. Them coming into consciousness is almost like us, human beings, coming into the truth of the fact that government is corrupt. Police are corrupt. Banks are corrupt. Etcetera, etcetera.
- Having children is life-changing, to state the obvious. It’s a gigantic shift in your life and I welcomed it.
- We’re all the same, and we all want the same thing. We all want to be secure. We all want food on the table. We want to know that our kids aren’t going to be destroyed when they’re not with us. We all want the same things, and if we’ve been hurt in our childhoods, we try and recreate the same hurt.
