Image
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
Image
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.

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.

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.

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

Image
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.

Image
I read much more that I do anything else. I don't watch too much television, because I like books.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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
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.
Anjelica Huston
Image
My biggest ambition is never to be bored. I'm not aggressive enough to strongly run after being an actress.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I have my television, my books and that becomes my little world.

Of course drugs were fun.

I'm very fond of doing movies where men fight over me. I don't get to do enough.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I get irritated when people counsel me on what I should do with my life, or tell me I should get married, or tell me what I should do. I think people have their role models for happiness and it helps if others fit into that.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I very much like doing voiceovers, and I also like doing readings. I do books on tape and stuff. I have fun with it.
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.
