I tried college for three months but I was desperately unhappy. I just wanted to perform. I was getting straight As but I had no friends and cried every day.
Keira KnightleyI totally agree. I hate knowing too much when I'm going to the cinema and watching as a viewer. I don't want to know that the actor has just gone through a divorce. I don't want to know that the person is an alcoholic. It just gets in the way of my pleasure of watching the character on the screen.
Keira KnightleyI think that there's absolutely no point trying to force your body to be anything than what it is. I think that when you see people who are really pushing themselves to terrifying lengths to achieve what is perceived as being beautiful today, then that's just terrifying, it's really terrifying.
Keira KnightleyI think I always disappoint people, because they always expect someone very pretty. Very done. Thereโs so much pressure to be thin, blonde and busty. Iโm skinny, but even I couldnโt fit into some of the clothes in L.A! In a funny kind of way, I think you create it yourself. I think itโs much better to go with the flow and embrace your body, whatever shape it is, and just be happy.
Keira KnightleyIt's obvious to say you can't please everybody and there are always going to be people who are going to say, I just don't like you. There's nothing I can do about that. I'm aware, probably much more aware than my harshest critic, of what my own problems are with my acting ability. I'm very, very critical of myself, and I don't ever want to not be.
