I read much more that I do anything else. I don't watch too much television, because I like books.

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.

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.

Of course drugs were fun.

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.

I'm not really big on slapstick humor. I like gentle humor.

Image
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.

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.

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.

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

I don't think people have ever cast me for anything too traditional or midwestern or housewifey.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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.

Image
I'd always wanted to act, but it was a question of whether acting wanted me and whether the movies wanted me.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I'm very fond of doing movies where men fight over me. I don't get to do enough.

Writing must certainly be one of the hardest professions - writing and painting.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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
Image
Being called a person, as such, indicates that one should only have one character and be true to it.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I think most actors like to be liked.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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.

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.

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.
