More quotes by Edie Falco
I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate. My life has changed so dramatically over the last number of years, especially having a family now. My priorities have shifted.
Edie Falco
The high-grossing films are not all that interesting to me, I have to say. It's not stuff I would want to be in. Yes, you would want the big paycheck, but that's never really been my concern.
Edie Falco
I've watched those shows my whole life - being on one is like a dream. It's hard to balance that dream with the fact that this is the Edie I've known my whole life.

Edie Falco
I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it.
Edie Falco
But I've always been hard to cast, I've never been an ingenue, I've never been the romantic lead. I'm an actor give me the script and I do what I do and hope it's good.
Edie Falco
It's a very complicated issue, this fame thing - I was not really cut out for it. There are some really fantastic things about it, but it's difficult for a private person like myself.
Edie Falco
My friends started having children after college, while I was pursuing this crazy acting career and living hand to mouth. Plus, all my boyfriends were artists struggling to make a living. Having kids didn't make any sense - why would I take on more of a financial burden when I couldn't even afford a dog?
Edie Falco
I was a young kid from Long Island who wanted to do something large with her life, so I can relate to that.
Edie Falco
I actually washed my window once, and it fell through - it was being held together by the dirt.
Edie Falco
I grew up kind of a tomboy and I used to fight with all the neighborhood boys.
Edie Falco
There is no question that sobriety has made me a better actor, made me a better person.
Edie Falco
Being a single mother was the right thing for me. But I have a tremendous amount of help from my friends. They're in love with my kids, and my kids are in love with them.
