More quotes by Carla Gugino
I'll always take an artistic endeavor over a career move.
Carla Gugino
I love doing serious movies for adults.
Carla Gugino
I find often in Hollywood there are many people who play themselves really beautifully. And certain parts are not that dissimilar from who you are as a person. And there are other parts where you would like to think that you have nothing in common with those characters, but you probably do have more than you think.
Carla Gugino
I think the scariest thing to me is to think that somebody would only associate me with one character and that that's all that I would get to play.
Carla Gugino
I'm much more of a kid now than I was when I was a kid. I was the kind of kid who was valedictorian, a straight-A student. My mom used to say, Please stop studying and get outside.
Carla Gugino
My tendency as an actor is, when there's a certain energy, I feel a challenge to match it, to come up to that plate and play on the same level.
Carla Gugino
The interesting thing with acting, actually, is that you get to be so many different people that you get to do so much research on so many different things that I've learned so much about brain surgery and about astrophysicist-type of things and traveling to amazing parts of the world.
Carla Gugino
You can't not be happy around penguins. You're unfortunately happy and cold but the happiness makes up for the coldness.
Carla Gugino
I always feel like I want to work with people who raise my game, and I can do the same for them, and we can jump off the cliff together.
Carla Gugino
I think that once somebody sees something, or feels it in the consciousness of society, it starts to allow change for other people.
Carla Gugino
I always had challenges when I was younger, because I looked so young but sounded older.
Carla Gugino
As an actor, you're naked emotionally you're revealing yourself emotionally.
Carla Gugino
I'm fiercely protective of my privacy.
Carla Gugino
What I love about him [Robert Rodriguez] is that he understands that actors are transformational. It's a natural instinct to ask people to do what you've seen them do before. Until you see someone do something new, you don't know what they can.
Carla Gugino
My favorite thing is to have a big dinner with friends and talk about life.
Carla Gugino
I'm intrigued by films that have a singular vision behind them. A lot of studio movies have ten writers by the time they're done. You have a movie testing 200 times, making adjustments according to various people's opinions. It's difficult to have an undistilled vision.
Carla Gugino
You know, I used to be made fun of as a kid for being really articulate it was sort of like a strange thing.
Carla Gugino
I feel like I'm the only person - or woman, at least - who hasn't read 'Fifty Shades of Grey.
Carla Gugino
Personally, just as an actor, I love accents they're fun.
Carla Gugino
As a creative person, you need to sort of spread your wings and try different things out because each one really does inform the other.
