More quotes by Anna Paquin
I think that in itself is kind of an amazing achievement to be able to say that your full-time career is in any creative arts, let alone a show that has kept people interested for coming on four seasons and hopefully more.
Anna Paquin
There are very few films or plays or anything about really happy people with perfect lives.
Anna Paquin
There are very few films or plays or anything about really happy people with perfect lives. Everyone is usually screwed up in some way and that is usually where the work comes in - figuring out how to make it believable and make it real to present someone.
Anna Paquin
Stubborn people get themselves in a lot of trouble, but they also get things done.
Anna Paquin
You gain and lose different things in different mediums or different sectors of different mediums. There are liberties you get on tiny indie films in terms of not having to be designed toward a marketing demographic.
Anna Paquin
I don’t know what it is that I’m doing, but I’m really enjoying myself. And I’m free to do it as much as I want.
Anna Paquin
It's great to have the freedom to enjoy your work and not feel like you're leaving your other life behind.
Anna Paquin
I like hiding somewhere, like, say on a bus street in a doorway, and taking pictures without people knowing - which sounds really creepy....You get some of the most interesting pictures because people are walking past not realising you're there.
Anna Paquin
I just do what feels right. I think the great thing about getting to do what I do is that you can try out being a different person without having to screw up your life to do it.
Anna Paquin
I don't think a naked body is particularly shocking or interesting ... It's not the culture I was raised in. I was not brought up in the United States. I don't share the [attitude] that you can have graphic violence, but - God forbid - you see someone's nipples.
Anna Paquin
We do ritualistic animal sacrifice. We host orgies on our trampoline, every other Sunday. You didn't get our Twitter feed on that? I'm really sorry! And then, every once in awhile, we run through the city and drain people and drink their blood. It's really very romantic.
Anna Paquin
Maybe I'm misjudging people, but I feel like a lot of people still have an image of me in a bonnet at nine years old.
Anna Paquin
People are incredibly literal sometimes in how they view you. You have dark hair and pale skin? You must be brooding. The second you dye your hair blond and get a spray tan, people treat you as if you're a bit stupider and happier.
Anna Paquin
I like shows or films or books that have messages but don't beat people over the head with them.
Anna Paquin
I get paid to do the thing I love most, and maybe that makes blending into the crowd impossible sometimes, but I wouldnt trade it for the world.
Anna Paquin
I still don't really think about acting that much. I just do it.
Anna Paquin
I'm so organised. I never screw up. I've done it maybe twice before. I check my calendar seven times a day.
Anna Paquin
Maybe it should be weird, simulating sex with your husband in front of people. But it's really not. When its a love scene with someone you actually love it's no 'Can I touch him here, can I touch him there' You know what your boundaries are, or aren't I suppose.
Anna Paquin
I just like the idea of getting to be my own boss, in a sense. Getting to decide what I want to do. Though it's also really nice to have no responsibility whatsoever, outside of being an actor, and have everyone else be worried about all the details.
Anna Paquin
I really liked the idea of focusing on one thing for, hopefully, a long time to come. I also like the idea of a consistent lifestyle, as opposed to not really knowing where on the planet you're going to be at any given moment.
