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

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.

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

Image
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
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
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
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.

I am a person whose father had no religion but who went to the nuns for a couple of years. And I think I'm the same: On one hand, I pray on the other hand, I don't believe. I am constantly between the two.

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
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.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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
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 have my television, my books and that becomes my little world.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I don't think it's necessarily healthy to go into relationships as a needy person. Better to go in with a full deck.
Anjelica Huston
Image
I don't think people have ever cast me for anything too traditional or midwestern or housewifey.

Image
What you have to remember is that the great feelings come after the terrible ones.
Anjelica Huston
Image
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.

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
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.

Image
One of the difficulties of being a writer must be that you create drama that you can't live out. That's one of the wonderful things about acting.
