It's certainly what I like best about getting older. You're not up for grabs for criticism anymore. You make a decision, it's made, it's fine, you don't have to go back and rework it. You don't have to apologize.

I'm very fond of doing movies where men fight over me. I don't get to do enough.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I like things pretty close around me. I like to know that my house is safe, that the people and animals I love are well and happy. I like to feel as peaceful as possible.

Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking Program achieved for me a thing that I thought was not possible - to give up a thirty year smoking habit literally overnight. It was nothing short of a miracle.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I don't have all that great an awareness of how people see me in life. I don't find myself thinking about it a lot.

Of course drugs were fun.

I was always reticent about taking offerings from my father, and I think it was maybe because I felt the caveat was that I had to give something back, and I didn't like that position.

Where there is age there is evolution, where there is life there is growth.
Anjelica Huston
Image
Rather than go from one life to another, I think I live a lot of lives at the same time. I've done that ever since I was a child. It seemed that I was inhabited by some B movie.

I loved being blonde. It's true, they have more fun, even when they're cannibalising their children.
Anjelica Huston
Image
My father was extremely loving to me and funny and wise and understanding, and at other times extremely demanding, critical, calculating, exacting. When you're a young woman, I think you want to please a lot, so maybe you accept more of the criticism than you would as an older person. But criticism can be very wounding. It certainly was to me.

Image
What I like to think, and perhaps it is an adolescent thought, is that anything can happen. As long as you think that anything can happen, it will. We're all allowed to have our dreams.

I have two new nephews and a new niece this year, so I have plenty of kids that I can spend time with.

I have my television, my books and that becomes my little world.

Image
At a certain point you stop looking at your features, at what you don't look like. You start looking at lines and signs of fatigue rather than at the shape of your mouth.

Oh, all kinds of lunacy happens in Ireland, all kinds of lunacy.

Being called a person, as such, indicates that one should only have one character and be true to it.
