More quotes by Amanda Schull
When I first came USA, I didn't feel this was my home. This was where I was studying, and then my home was now rejecting me.
Amanda Schull
Science fiction is one of the smartest genres around because you have to have so much forethought.
Amanda Schull
You never know where your next job is going to lead you, down the road. One single episode that might seem so far removed from what you might end up doing in the future might spark somebody's memory bank. Just one little line you said or a look you gave might be what they want to pursue with a character.

I feel vulnerable when I am underprepared. This applies to underpreparedness with just about anything, especially work.

In high school ethics they went around and asked what everyone thought their classmates were qualified to do. For me, everyone said actress. But to me it was very much if it happens, it happens.

Every time I get a script in my inbox, it's like a little Christmas present. It's so exciting to see what they've cooked up.

Acting for screen is very different from acting on stage, and then obviously when you dance... everything is a physical embodiment. But the discipline is the same approach. You have to take both things seriously nothing well-crafted is by mistake.
Amanda Schull
A lot of professional dancers become professional when they turn 15 or 16 years old, when they're still children. So you've trained every single waking moment up until that point for a career that could maybe only last 10 years, maybe longer if your body holds up, if your injuries are kept at bay.
Amanda Schull
That being said, I am not one to feel sorry for myself. I believe it is healthy to honor one's feelings and do the best we can to learn and grow from them moving forward.

When I was in high school, my mom gave me a paperweight. It was when I was going through my 'not that interested in doing homework or really working on anything' phase and the paperweight said If you're not the lead dog, the view never changes. And that's sort of the same thing, if you're not always working to be in the front.
Amanda Schull
Stage performance is obviously a much grander sort of depiction. The audience isn't right in your face as close as a camera lens gets.
Amanda Schull
I think one of my biggest lessons so far in life is that hard work really does pay off. It may not culminate in the way you expected it to, but I have found that when I really put my head down and apply myself, I often get a good result.
Amanda Schull
It's hard with ballet because your aesthetic really is important. It's different from acting and from film. Nobody wants to watch somebody who is sickly thin. And it's interesting because I have danced with people who are ill, have eating disorders, and a light goes off within them.

I enjoyed acting growing up I did musical theater. I had a secret desire to be a television and movie actress, but it wasn't something I admitted to myself that I wanted to do, I guess.

I left home at 14 and I have friends who joined the navy and the army performing troops at 9. I know people [like that]. It's a very straightforward character.

Every dancer has injuries, and your injury could happen that season that you were getting that one part that you've wanted to do your whole career. So you have to appreciate every single moment until it happens.

I would remind people on the planet that this is the only one we have, and we need to take care of it.
Amanda Schull
I wouldn't necessarily consider myself the typical sci-fi genre fan. I do have a lot of sci-fi shows that I enjoy, but I wouldn't call it my favorite genre of all.
Amanda Schull
I also have a routine with breathing and visualization techniques that I go through when I feel overwhelmed or nervous.
Amanda Schull
I give myself a Pilates/yoga hybrid mat class almost every day. I also continue to take ballet classes. Both of these practices help me to be aware of my body, my center, and how I move, both with my physical space and my mental space.
