More quotes by 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
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
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 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
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.
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'm very fond of doing movies where men fight over me. I don't get to do enough.
Anjelica Huston
I read much more that I do anything else. I don't watch too much television, because I like books.
Anjelica Huston
I'm not all that big on rides. I sort of like bumper cars but I don't really go to Disneyland all that much unless if have nieces and nephews or people to take.
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
It was great to work in Ireland because it's such a beautiful country, but it's not particularly easy to film in because the weather changes all the time.
Anjelica Huston
Of wanting to pay my own way. I never asked my parents for money. I preferred to steal from my parents than ask them for money.
Anjelica Huston
Going back to Ireland involves at least six to seven emotional breakdowns for me per day.
Anjelica Huston
If I were to have any sort of solid idea about which moments were God's manifestations, they would be those moments where one has practically nothing to do with what's going on. It's one of the best feelings in the world.
Anjelica Huston
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.
Anjelica Huston
An actor definitely has to be in the past a well as the present an actor must react to past experiences every minute, every second.

Writing must certainly be one of the hardest professions - writing and painting.
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
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
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.
