More quotes by Diane Lane
I can tell you that, you know, when I went to my first movie premiere, it was my own movie, and I wore the best jeans I had and my favorite top. You know, I made sure my hair had some wave in it because I braided it the night before myself.
Diane Lane
I think that directing is the ultimate martyred task of filmmaking, that it has nobility to it. It takes three years to make a film, for the most part. I think it requires the attentiveness of a mother hen.
Diane Lane
I grew up loving horses. I was relatively obsessed, starting with my rocking horse at age 2, all the way through my painting and drawing phase.
Diane Lane
I wish I could always look like I've just finished a really good laugh.

I think that directing is the ultimate martyred task of filmmaking, that it has nobility to it. It takes three years to make a film, for the most part. I think it requires the attentiveness of a mother hen. I don't know how people raise children and direct films. I'm sorry, I don't know, how can you be good at both?
Diane Lane
I think the secret to happiness is having a Teflon soul. Whatever comes your way, you either let it slide or you cook with it.
Diane Lane
Sometimes I think opposable thumbs were invented so teenage girls could use text messaging.

For me, going away to work is the hardest part of my life and career.
Diane Lane
I bought into the myth that you are not complete without romantic love, without a mate. And it can really distract you from your goals. But sometimes you have to take a leap.
Diane Lane
My roles are in some way like children to me. You don't ever really want to scrape one off your shoe.
Diane Lane
Because that's what intimacy is: It's a willingness to be vulnerable, a willingness to bite my tongue and a willingness to set an example of what I believe in.
Diane Lane
I would say chemistry between two people is very powerful. You have to fight to keep it, but if you don't have it, you can't manufacture it.
Diane Lane
You can only be a virgin once. There can only be one first time.
Diane Lane
I loved acting, I started as a child and it is interesting because I didn't compare myself to others that were doing the same thing. I just felt that I needed to stay focused and stay out of trouble.
Diane Lane
Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.
Diane Lane
Blessings come in disguise. And challenges can be a blessing.
Diane Lane
I don't want to live in a bubble, in my craft or in the world... I can't, I would be cheating myself out of my generation and the world we live in.
Diane Lane
Because I tend to kind of hide under the sheets when it comes to reality television. I've seen probably one episode of maybe five different shows, and that's about it.
Diane Lane
If people knew what made hits they'd make more of them, so to have the illusion of control over one's career isn't something I can even pretend to have.
Diane Lane
