The Wit and Wisdom of Nicole Kidman

Movies, marriages, divorce, babies - Nicole's had it all by DAME


"I was one of those terrible kids who said everyone's lines." -  on her first role at age 5

"It's so bizarre, I'm not scared of snakes or spiders. But I'm scared of butterflies. There is something eerie about them. Something weird!"

"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." - that doesn't explain Katie Holmes' near-skeletal physique

"It was dark - and deeply lonely. I felt panic and absolute fear about my future." - on her miscarriage while married to Tom Cruise
 
"There's no drugs, no Tom in a dress, no psychiatrists." - on denying a typical Saturday night with Tom Cruise.  No really, on denying that Tom's a nut.

"They've said I'm gay, they've said everyone is gay. I personally don't believe in doing huge lawsuits about that stuff. Tom does. That's what he wants to do, that's what he's going to do. You do not tell Tom what to do. He is a force to be reckoned with." - on the fear people [read this Katie Holmes] should have of Tom Cruise

"My life collapsed. People ran from me because suddenly it was 'Oh my God! It's over for her now!" - on her split with Tom Cruise
 
"Now I can wear heels." - on divorcing Tom Cruise

"I love acting, but it's much more fun taking the kids to the zoo."

"You don't have to be naked to be sexy." - perhaps scolding all of young Hollywood

"What's the point of doing something good if nobody's watching."

"I'm really bummed we didn't win Best Kiss. We should have rehearsed a bit more." - to Ewan McGregor at the MTV Movie Awards

"[Tom] taught me an enormous amount — as a girl into a woman. Absolutely, I would do it again."- this message is brought to you by the makes of Scientology

"I would love to have boobs and a butt like Jennifer Lopez but I'm not having surgery so there it is." - by the way, Lopez is known for the junk in her trunk, not necessarily her rack

"I'm trying to find a man to share my life with, but it's not been easy. I'm a 35-year-old woman with two small children."

"For an actor, facial expressions and emotions are really important. That's why I'll never have Botox. I've always been against that and seeing Botox on TV with all the swelling and pain put me off it anyway." - um, ok

"If you're going to be with someone, you're with them, you're committed to them. I'm not sort of flitting around."

I wasn't ready. We weren't ready." - after revealing she was engaged to a mystery man (our bet is Lenny Kravitz) after Tom Cruise and before Keith Urban

"Keith gave me a life. He gave me a home."

"Keith is doing very well. We've been through a lot. We've dug really deep. Three months into our marriage we had to dig really deep. And that's what we are doing. We're in the process of doing that." - on husband Keith Urban’s rehab stint - happy honeymoon

"It was the most beautiful thing to go through with him. I had a great team of women, too. At one point there were nine women in the room and Keith." - on giving birth

"There is something up there in the Kununurra water because we all went swimming in the  waterfalls, so we can call it the fertility waters now.  Seven babies were conceived out of this film and only one was a boy." - on miracle baby, Sunday Rose
