Quote Of The Day

Filed under: Anglophilia > Quote of the Day > Keira Knightley

"I am completely uneducated. Not going to university did give me an incredible driving force because it leaves you with a slight chip on your shoulder. It makes me feel I am going to read absolutely everything so I can prove I am not stupid."

- Keira Knightley tells the new issue of the U.K.'s Tattler magazine

    I love Keira Knightley!

    She's absolutely awesome and such a good actress.

    And she is one of the only starlets who has a good head on her shoulders.

    Well she's an actress, I think that makes her dumb to begin with. I mean it's not like she's out there inventing, saving people, writing books, she reads a script for a living and makes some facial expressions. She's not even a good actress/performer, broadway has great performers, there are some great actors, she isn't even one of those. But whatever, sounds like she has some insecurities to deal with.

    She is a great actress but no matter how 'smart' she may seem unless she has a college education, she's not educated.

    This just proves you can do what you want if you're a dumb slut and sleep your way to the top.

    Yes, because all those people who never go to Uni are stupid little shits. And I guess all those who left school after their GCSE's are nothing more than dribilling cabbage heads.

    In other words she from a snobby background.

    "Completely uneducated"? Is that something to be proud about?

    Knowledge is power, shallow girl!!!!

    Money isn't everything… but it can buy you an excellent education.

    A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

    What would she do with an education? It's not like it takes a genius to regurgitate lines for a living. She doesn't even need to know how to read. She can just have some scrip supervisor to feed her the lines.

    I think she's trying to appear self-deprecating and humble, but comes off sounding more stupid..

    Dahling, let me make a suggestion. Step 1 to proving you're not stupid is not shooting your face off and saying stupid shiz to reporters, OK?

  32. 32

    Is it just me or do her eyes always look bloodshot and watery like she is stoned?

  33. 33

    Who cares if she's stupid…no one has to have conversation with her at all.
    The problem is her abysmal acting to which we are all subjected.

    I can believe it. Well, go already. It's not as though you can't afford the tuition, or wouldn't enjoy the college experience. Pull a Jodie Foster. Get rid of that chip.

    i appreciate keira's candidness. i, as well, never went to college and i feel the same way. i've learned more from reading books in my spare time, than i ever learned in high school. college is only useful if you're eager to learn, which many people are not. it's the forced circumstances that make learning seem not as fun.

    Does she not realize how amazingly stupid that makes her sound?

    Maybe she should read, and use, a few menus.

    You are stupid if you think you have to have a University Degree to be smart. Even educated people are stupid sometimes. Not everybody gets the chance to go to Uni, it doesn't mean they are stupid.

    ok, good luck with that whole "proving you're not stupid" thing.
    maybe start by keeping your fucking mouth shut, since you always
    manage to say the fucking stupidest things.

    It's true… As a ballet dancer, you never attend formal university courses and whatnot, but that doesn't mean you're an idiot. People make fun of us all the time… "Yeah, she's a fab dancer, but I'll guarantee she's as dumb as bricks." I say, to hell with them, they never graduated at the top of their class (AP coursework and all), did not win a national scholar award, did not have their writing featured in a national publication, and, I'M SURE, have never attempted to read the classics and the 9/11 Commission Report at the same time. How was that, "intellectuals"? I suppose that you just can't handle the fact that some of us "artsy-fartsy", "crazy", "no-brain" entertainers/dancers/ musicians/writers, are multi-talented.

    Kate I find this statement of yours rather stupid and pathetic. I mean don’t you think it’s dumb to assume that all actresses aren’t educated? I guess that would also include Natalie Portman who’s graduated from an Ivy League school? Also does saving people and writing books makes you automatically smart and educated? There are tons of books out there written by idiots who have no idea how to write a book yet they get published because they are famous. Reading scripts for a living doesn’t mean you are ipso facto “uneducated”

    Nor does having a college degree means that you are uneducated as well. I think this is just some security issue she has to deal with but I know a lot of people who are pretty smart and never finished college. Especially with the education system these days, a college education doesn’t mean intelligence.
