UMA THURMAN QUOTES |

"Before I had my child, I thought I knew all the
boundaries of myself, that I understood the limits of my heart.
It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out, to
realize your love is inexhaustible." - Uma Thurman
"Buddhism has had a major effect on who I am and how I think
about the world. What I have learned is that I like all
religions, but only parts of them." - Uma Thurman
"Desperation is the perfume of the young actor. It's so
satisfying to have gotten rid of it. If you keep smelling it, it
can drive you crazy. In this business a lot of people go nuts,
go eccentric, even end up dead from it. Not my plan." - Uma
Thurman
"Even, today, when people tell me I'm beautiful, I do not
believe a word of it." - Uma Thurman
"Fun wouldn't be the right word... it was the most difficult,
challenging, physical, extraordinary stretch I've ever had to
make, in all those wild regards." - Uma Thurman
"I grew up in a mostly Buddhist environment." - Uma Thurman
"I had to go to a mirror and look at it. I couldn't picture
myself in my own head. I had no image beyond a stick figure. I
wasn't a mean person as a kid, or dumb, and something has to be
said to justify excluding you." - Uma Thurman
"I spent the first fourteen years of my life convinced that my
looks were hideous. Adolescence is painful for everyone, I know,
but mine was plain weird." - Uma Thurman
"I was not particularly bright, I wasn't very athletic, I was a
little too tall, odd, funny looking, I was just really weird as
a kid." - Uma Thurman
"I'm very happy at home. I love to just hang out with my
daughter, I love to work in my garden. I'm not a gaping hole of
need." - Uma Thurman
"It is better to have a relationship with someone who cheats on
you than with someone who does not flush the toilet." - Uma
Thurman
"It's hard sometimes if you think a character should look a
certain way and you're being pushed to do it differently. I've
had fights over that. That's why it's so important that you work
with good people." - Uma Thurman
"Modeling is basically 'Buy more stuff! Don't you want some more
stuff? It will make you look ten years younger and men will like
you!' If I'd wanted to be a salesperson, I would have got a job
selling." - Uma Thurman
"Most films these days are men's stories. Women are for add-on
romance. That's very hard." - Uma Thurman
"Tall, sandy blonde, with sort of blue eyes, skinny in places,
fat in others. An average gal." - Uma Thurman
"When asked if I consider myself Buddhist, the answer is, Not
really. But it's more my religion than any other because I was
brought up with it in an intellectual and spiritual environment.
I don't practice or preach it, however." - Uma Thurman |
