More quotes by Anjelica Huston
I'm a collector - I collect everything. I can't throw things away. For some reason I think I'm going to need tiny wooden teddy bears with their arms hacked off.
Anjelica Huston
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. But I've never felt incumbent on anyone to kind of keep them lifted or to support them, necessarily. I do that by wish or by option.
Anjelica Huston
I like it when you read a script and there's the part that you show to the other characters and then there's the part that only the audience knows.
Anjelica Huston
Age is not enviable in America. It's not applauded all that strongly. You have to take it all with a grain of salt.
Anjelica Huston
Going back to Ireland involves at least six to seven emotional breakdowns for me per day.
Anjelica Huston
What you have to remember is that the great feelings come after the terrible ones.
Anjelica Huston
I have two new nephews and a new niece this year, so I have plenty of kids that I can spend time with.
Anjelica Huston
There have been times when I wanted children and other times I've been grateful not to have them. I am a mess if I have to say goodbye to my dog for longer than five days. I don't know how I would deal with kissing my children as I left for work. I know there are women who are able to do that. I don't know if I could.
Anjelica Huston
Of course drugs were fun. And that's what's so stupid about anti-drug campaigns they don't admit that. I can't say I feel particularly scarred or lessened by my experimentation with drugs. They've gotten a very bad name.
Anjelica Huston
I do like the ocean wave, actually. I'm born under the sign of Cancer - the sign of the crab - so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such - although not the wide-open and deep seas.
Anjelica Huston
Of course drugs were fun.
Anjelica Huston
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.
Anjelica Huston
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.
Anjelica Huston
Where there is age there is evolution, where there is life there is growth.
Anjelica Huston
I'm not really big on slapstick humor. I like gentle humor.
Anjelica Huston
People say, Why is it that you love to act? And you want to say, Well, most of acting is sitting in your trailer, either bored or worried about the scene coming up. A lot of it is about things you don't really like, so it's a wonder why acting is such a huge draw, why everyone loves it so much.
Anjelica Huston
I think all actors - they'll hate me for saying this - but we are babies. We like to be loved, and we'll do anything if we're loved.
Anjelica Huston
I don't think people have ever cast me for anything too traditional or midwestern or housewifey.
Anjelica Huston
I had one nanny who made me sit in front of a bowl of porridge for three or four days running when I refused to eat it. I remember being very unhappy about that.
Anjelica Huston
I'd always wanted to act, but it was a question of whether acting wanted me and whether the movies wanted me.
Anjelica Huston
