More quotes by Ellen Page
Sometimes I see movies and I get almost angry - because I'm like, I can never make that movie. It stems from a jealousy, but from a good kind of jealousy. It's inspirational.
Ellen Page
There’s obviously a lot of tragedy in comedy I really enjoy the paradox of what a really good comedy is.
Ellen Page
If you're a girl and you don't fit the very specific vision of what a girl should be, which is always from a man's perspective, then you're a little bit at a loss.

When I was 5, someone thought it was smart to let me watch The People Under the Stairs. It might not have even been that scary, but I do remember skinned people in cages under the stairs and a man who lived in a wall without a tongue… and that’s why I cry after sex.

I have trouble sometimes watching actors - even when they do a great job - with an accent.
Ellen Page
If you can really hear more of the root cause, maybe there are ways that we can get beyond it, or destroy it, actually.

I love playing roles that are physical, absolutely love. Whether it's just that kind of basic level of physicality or whether it's stunts.

I hope I continue to learn more. It's a lot to learn.

I don't get competitive, really. So I don't know. If I'm excited about something, hopefully someone will think, Oh right, you should do this. And that's great. I'm not being very articulate about this. I just don't want to do stuff if I'm going to feel bummed out and uninspired.

I've never done a movie in that genre, and I love a lot of those movies. I watched the director's [David Freyne] short film [The First Wave], which I loved. And the script was just so good. He's found this way to tell a new story.
Ellen Page
It's weird because here I am, an actress, representing - at least in some sense - an industry that places crushing standards on all of us. Not just young people, but everyone. Standards of beauty. Of a good life. Of success. Standards that, I hate to admit, have affected me.
Ellen Page
I'm a huge Sissy Spacek fan.
Ellen Page
Now I'm able to align my work and creative life with who I am.
Ellen Page
I am tired of hiding and I am tired of lying by omission. I suffered for years because I was scared to be out. My spirit suffered, my mental health suffered and my relationships suffered. And I'm standing here today, with all of you, on the other side of that pain.
Ellen Page
You think you're in a place where you're all 'I'm thrilled to be gay, I have no issues about being gay anymore, I don't feel shame about being gay,' but you actually do. You're just not fully aware of it. I think I still felt scared about people knowing. I felt awkward around gay people I felt guilty for not being myself.

By focusing on the community, you can learn more about the whole country.

Diablo Cody wasn't writing a script about a 16-year girl that got an abortion. She was writing a script about a 16-year old girl that got pregnant, decided to have the baby and give it to a young yuppy uptight couple for adoption. That's what the movie is about.

I grew up working in Canada so everything was low budget.
