I feel like I'm a much better person when I'm developing my imagination and my innocence and my vulnerability. I like that version of me better than the version where I'm just working on my analytical mind.

More quotes by Brit Marling
I feel like, when the audience connects with something, they enjoy the experience so much that they want other people to go have it. They're like, Don't talk about it. Don't tell. Just go!

I'm still a bit of a romantic and an idealist and hopelessly naive.

As an actor, you have an accumulated knowledge base. But there's also something about it that every time you really feel like you're doing it for the first time you have no idea whether you're capable of it.
Brit Marling
For some reason, I have a very strange conception of time. I am constantly hovering at some overview, more macro.
Brit Marling
I feel like success to me is about feeling like I have done something in storytelling, where I've gotten close to articulating something intangible that I'm feeling, and I think I get closer every time, but I don't know that I've done that yet.

I think sometimes big budget means explosions! CGI! CGI, the possibilities are so limitless that it begins to be impractical.

People go to the cinema to be moved they wanna laugh, they wanna cry, they wanna feel something deeply, especially if they're not feeling deeply in their own lives.

When I was a kid and going to the movies I was overwhelmed by the way women were always second-class citizens in the film.
Brit Marling
The only thing that's important is that every day I'm waking and doing something that I really love to do.

Here's the thing that I think about life - if you manage to get into a space where you don't need that much, where the overhead of your life is not that great and you're pretty happy and relaxed without that much stuff, you are really liberated because you never have to say yes to something because you want another refrigerator or car!

So writing became a way to get to act in things that I thought were meaningful, and hopefully write stronger roles for other women.
