Kate Hudson Quotations

I talked to ex-wives of musicians of the '70s for research. They're the funniest people in the world, yet there is this sad, beautiful thing in their eyes that says they've seen more than they could ever possibly tell you

Never worry about bad press. All that matters is if they spell your name right.

I'm not afraid of heights. I rock climb. I can repel off the side of a building.

Somebody can become a celebrity for being stupid. That is what it's turned into

I gained 60 pounds, and I'm proud of it. Why do I need to watch my weight when I'm pregnant? I could eat whatever the hell I want to eat.

I'm superstitious... but not like wear the same underwear for two weeks superstitious.

I went on countless auditions. I begged my parents until I finally was allowed to be in a theatrical play when I was 13. It was the most important thing in my life

I did not like leaving them when they were little or big. You have to have priorities regarding what you will allow to take you away from your kid.

I auditioned on my own. I tried to make a mark for myself without anybody's help, not even Mom's

Do you know what a blessing it is to make movies that make people happy?

The only things I'm competitive in are backgammon and poker.

When you're nursing and you're working 18-hour days, that's pretty hard

I'm not a big fan of romantic comedies, believe it or not

If it's a big hit, fantastic. If it's not, then it's not. I don't worry about my work

You have people who can't act and they get all these parts. Paris Hilton falls into her own category. She's made a career out of it

I have never done a thriller, and it will just be really fun for me to heave and pant and run and climb and break windows and scream every once in a while

I don't know if people really want to know how I feel about drugs. I'm not such a stickler. I believe you can choose to live your life any way you want

I felt horrible because I thought I was letting the director and the studio down,

I did grow up with Kurt Russell as a Dad, who was a professional baseball player, with all boys. All I wanted to do was be the best athlete. I was the kind of person that in high school, if I didn't beat the record, I was very disappointed in myself. I finally got to do that in my work.

(Goldie) told her to put on some weight, ... eating practically nothing.

Kate brought a real grounding to the character, as well as a solid intelligence. Caroline is very compassionate, but also very straightforward and very strong, and I saw all that in Kate when I first met her and realized I was talking to someone who's wise beyond her 25 years. I also think that Kate's natural effervescence was a great counterbalance to what could easily in someone else's hands have become overly introspective.

I think Galliano is one of the most thrilling designers. He uses lots of color. I really enjoy his clothes.

My big New Year's resolution is to be more patient. My thing is I'm always rushing myself to make sure everything gets done. My thing is to kick back a little bit ... start soaking it in now.

To bear children is the ultimate in femininity; it's beautiful. And if having kids is going to affect my career, then fine, let it. I don't really care. Because if that's what being a star is all about, I don't want it.

we'd contact Bob Marley and ask him to come back for one last concert.

Andy: Look at our love fern! It's dead!Ben: No it's only sleeping.

the serious threat that these laws will be used to curtail the right to protest ... We must defend our democratic right to protest.

Sometimes I'll be walking down the street and I'll hear some American and I'll just go, 'Of course they hate us, of course they can't stand us. We're the most annoying, boisterous creatures in the world.' I mean we come in and we eat mounds of food, and we're like, 'Where's the ketchup for our French fries.' I'm like, 'Shut up.''- explaining how she REALLY feels about her American fans when being treated poorly in France.

I love when I can work with a director who demands me to go to places that I know I can go. I've gotten that opportunity twice. Ian is an amazing actor's director, who loves working with actors. It's so much fun, and Cameron was like that too.

I love his energy, ... You, Me and Dupree.

In the early 1980s when the British government decided to purchase the Trident nuclear weapons system, Britain faced a perceived threat from the nuclear-armed Soviet Union.

I have zero problems when people say, 'God, you look like your mother.' I go, 'Well, great! Thanks!

In terms of fear, that was shockingly easy for me to be able to tap into, because it was so accessible. We don't realize how much fear we do carry around with us. We're constantly trying to be, hopefully, rid of our fears, but they're always lingering.

He's such a hustler. He's always been like that. He's a very underrated star in the NBA. I think he's just about to come into his own.

I do love clothes but sometimes I think I should pay more attention to what I'm wearing. I just wear what is comfortable.

Obsession is such a naughty word - it's a very intense word. I'm obsessed with music, always have been. I can't lie. And I'm obviously obsessed with my child, my child's life and the little things that he does.

Alec Baldwin made us all feel like [we could] pal around with him and come up with the best scenarios or scenarios if you're a f - king asshole. So working with him was Alec Baldwin does it the best.

Alec Baldwin is an incredible... I mean this guy is a tour de force when you talk about people that are generous and available and somebody you could approach and I have ideas.

I grew up dancing, and my ballet teacher was literally a drill sergeant; she was so strict and so scary. And it made me a better dancer.

I don't like working out with lots of makeup because I don't like it getting into my pores.

The American Dream is a romantic notion but it's newer - not as pretty. You go to Europe, and it says something about the type of person you are. You're in search of something more intimate and more about yourself.

I realized that my skin was always the best when I had only been cleaning it, I hadn't been moisturizing that much and I hadn't been going to a facialist.

Paris was incredible. Everything about it for me, from spending hours eating, drinking and talking to walking through the streets...at that time I hadn't seen that sort of political passion in the youth, and I got to experience that first hand.

I'm not interested in being fearful. I'm not a good flyer, but that doesn't stop me.

It would be horrible if there was no competition. It's what people want to see - they either like you or they don't. Not everybody likes Van Gogh. Or Bob Dylan! So you have Neil Young...or Ozzy Osbourne.

You do get the pregnant mush-brain... you know what it's like? It's like getting stoned.

For an everyday makeup look, I usually use Almay's CC cream, then concealer, bronzer and maybe a bit of mascara. The whole thing takes me ten minutes. I apply everything with my hands and blend like crazy.

If I think about my life, I'm not reluctant about taking chances. I'm definitely not reluctant about relationships.

[What's beautiful about my mother is] her compassion, how much she gives, whether it be to her kids and grandkids or out in the world. She's got a sparkle.

If there is one thing I will never have, it is an eating disorder. I won't have girls -- even if it is just one or two who care -- thinking that. Because it is a serious sickness, not something to plaster on the cover of a magazine. And I am the opposite. I want girls to love themselves. I want them to feel good about who they areThe thing is, I'm lucky because I was loved. But I have seen so many young women who can't feel good about themselves because they just don't have that love.

I sometimes feel like when you're talking to boys, they just hear certain keywords… But if you had a bubble above their head, they'd be thinking about game scores, masturbation and food.

I slather Egyptian Magic cream all over my face on overnight flights to keep my skin hydrated.

I don't believe [monogamy] is realistic. But, I believe that we, as people, have the power to make it happen.

I have always been fiery; I go after things. But what I learned from my mother is to step back and actually experience things that are happening. So for me, it's about meditating. My Everest is to have that become a real part of my life.

If I'm not feeling good, I load on jewelry. It gives me energy and makes me feel happy.

I always thought my mother was so damn cute!

To do high fashion, you have to go into a little bit of a higher price point.

I'm a sappy romantic. I don't kiss until the 40th date. I really like to take it slow. I'll present you with a piñata with my hopes and dreams.

No matter how far you take it with your friends, whether you're fighting with them or you hate them for two months, you just really need them, because they're the ones who teach you the most about yourself.

I have a big, flamboyant, open personality, which I think is why people may be saying these nice things about me.

I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say my mom. Apart from the fact that she's my mother, she's a brilliant comedian and a force as a producer. She paved the way for women to produce and star in their own films, and to balance that with being the matriarch of our family is really inspiring.

It's kind of a funny world we live in today with tabloids and all. I feel there's so much negativity out there and people sense that people only want to read things that either are controversial or negative, therefore you end up dealing with people lying about your life and having to answer to things that become ridiculous with an onslaught of lies and you have to answer to them.

Nobody can tell you to do things a way that you don't want to do them. Nobody can say really what's right or what's wrong. It's like some people don't feed their children meat. Some people do. It's a crazy world.

A lot of my life involves sitting and having make-up put on; whether it's on a movie set or for a photo shoot. When you're wearing that kind of make-up all the time your skin does get all this sensitivity, so it's important that you make sure you have make-up that is easy on your skin and not too harsh for it.

I think that, like anything, people take their image and what they want somebody else to be and then people just run with it. And when you really know the person and really love the person, you recognize that that person is nothing like that.

~My favorite thing about my son is that he comes home from school and the clothes go flying! Like, clothes off, right down to the undies.~

I'm working 18 hour days and I'm feeling guilty not being able to be there when all those times I want to be mother.

I try to give everyone options because no matter what you think you're going to wear, what you actually put on depends totally on how you feel.

I'm the kind of person who, as much as I like clothes in real life because it's a fun expression of who you are and everybody kind of enjoys wearing things that make them...well, in movies you're wearing things that aren't necessarily the things you would choose to put on or wear.

I think for all the women who are working parents it's difficult to balance your work-life and your home-life. You make obvious sacrifices because you really just want to be with your family.

I'd like to be able to experience things. That's the best thing for my work - to be somebody who does get to travel and observe people.

Honesty will never break you.

Just as it takes work to be in a relationship, so it takes work to not be in a relationship.

I'm superstitious ... but not like wear the same underwear for two weeks superstitious.

Your children teach you so much. It's a real mirror of yourself.

You Can't Lose Something You Never Had

I've had friends who've lied to me, I've had friends who've done things behind my back, I've had people steal from me - and it doesn't stop me from trusting.

I smoke, isn't that terrible?

I got so much advice; I just started tuning it out. If one more person told me what I had to do when the baby comes, I was going to shoot 'em.

You don't wear stuff for other people; you've got to wear it for yourself.

The reason I trust so much is that I don't feel like I have anything to hide. If somebody betrays that trust, it could never be so bad, because I don't keep any secrets.

The happier I am, the better my skin is. Any woman knows when they are over exerting themselves, whether it is emotionally or physically, you can see it on your face.

You have to know what you need. You need someone who's going to really push you hard. But they also need to understand that, emotionally, sometimes today's not the day to push so hard.

Love is scary, like anything else, whether you're falling in love, whether you're discovering love in something else...if you're really going to jump off the cliff, when you meet somebody that you love you're going to jump off that cliff, you've got to give them everything. And when you have a kid, it's on a much greater level.

I'm not really single. I mean I am, but i have a son. Being a single mother is different from being a single woman.

I do think that there is an innocence to people who are searching for things. It's a beautiful thing when you leave yourself vulnerable to discover anything and everything.

Being active and good health is the most important beauty regime because that will affect you for the rest of your life.

When you see something, you are supposed to tell the energy what year it is and that they don't belong there.

Only in failure do you reach success. You can only get to the good stuff when you've done the hard stuff.

I'm pretty comfortable with my body. I'm imperfect. The imperfections are there. People are going to see them, but I take the view you only live once.
