I was an international studies major.
Anna Chlumsky
In order to satirize adequately, I think you need to bring people down to Earth and be like, 'Yeah, these people drink coffee and have tummy troubles and they go to the bathroom like anybody else, and they all have relationship problems, if they even have relationships.'
Anna Chlumsky
Kissing Macaulay Culkin was like kissing a brother. It was really no big deal.
Anna Chlumsky
There were a lot of signs being thrown at me. A lot of angels I was meeting, inspiring me to get back into show business.
Anna Chlumsky
I don't have a Twitter account.
Anna Chlumsky
I'm very happy to make specific choices (as an actor), (but) you can't be married to them because you never know when the writers are going to be like, By the way, you have no brothers, you have a sister.
Anna Chlumsky
First, I was a fact checker for Zagat and then I was an editorial assistant for HarperCollins publishing house.
Anna Chlumsky
I only surround myself with people who are intellectually stimulating.
Anna Chlumsky
People look to you to replace a part in their lives that they can't get back. You can't get the past back, you can't do it. We've all tried.
Anna Chlumsky
It was easy for me to leave acting for school, because I wasn't really in it as an adolescent for fulfilling reasons.
Anna Chlumsky
I didn't want to go down any scarier path of low self-esteem than I was already on the track for. So during my second year of college I was like, 'I'm over it! I have to go see what this other thing called life is about!
Anna Chlumsky
Show business got really tainted for me.
Anna Chlumsky
Right now I'm just thinking about school and trying to get those grades and keep them up! In case I become a Norma Desmond when I grow up, I can have something to fall back on!
Anna Chlumsky
I've been poked fun of throughout my career by fellow actors for my notes that I take. I have spiral notebooks that I carry with me on every project I do, and I take notes just so that if I have to relive a scene, if I have to go back, I know what I did.
Anna Chlumsky
Kids are brought into show business because they are cute and see truth and they're very bright. But there's a sense of doing it because you want the adults to be approving of you. You want to make them happy.
Anna Chlumsky
Even on the worst days I am without a doubt still happier doing this than I am doing anything else. On acting.
Anna Chlumsky
It was more like having unwanted attention as a child - if you'd walk around, people would recognize you, and it would be in a weird, almost making-fun-type manner.
Anna Chlumsky
I don't let it bother me too much if someone doesn't like me. I just figure there's no accounting for taste. It's not me, it's my acting. It's like if someone doesn't like someone's food, they just don't like my acting.
Anna Chlumsky
But here's the thing: I had this great job, and I would still feel terribly depressed. I would just be like, 'This isn't the sweet spot. I thought this would be it, and I don't feel happy.
Anna Chlumsky
An actor's responsibility is to play a character truthfully. That's their responsibility. That's where it ends. If they choose to use their reach and accessibility in order to further something that matters to them, that's their choice and that's great - but it's not for anybody to choose it for them.
Anna Chlumsky
