I consider acting a day job - it's not my dream it's not my be-all, end-all.
Evangeline Lilly
I always wear something slightly masculine.
Evangeline Lilly
As an actress, and as a person, I really admire Diane Keaton. She's feisty, strong, beautiful and talented, and intelligent.
Evangeline Lilly
As a filmmaker, you have to understand the essence of the book and tell the story you want to see on the screen, and hopefully please yourself - because you cant possibly please everyone.
Evangeline Lilly
That is the greatest source of my anxiety on this film [The Hobbit], is that I'm going to be lynched.
Evangeline Lilly
I know I can never work in a comedy because I can't keep a goddamn straight face.
Evangeline Lilly
I love being outside - that's where I'm the happiest.
Evangeline Lilly
When I got the job on 'Lost,' I was a broke university student living in the crappiest part of town, with a duct-taped back window on a broken-down car. I existed on peanut butter and tea.
Evangeline Lilly
My home is my castle, and I spend a lot of time nurturing it, redecorating - moving this and adjusting that, adding flowers and candles.
Evangeline Lilly
I didn't grow up in a home that glorified Hollywood. We didn't watch TV. We didn't have a lot of magazines around.
Evangeline Lilly
When I was young I was soft spoken and a little bit timid and passive. My dream then was to be a ballerina or a figure skater - something very delicate.
Evangeline Lilly
There's a massive part of me that can be bold and courageous...very strong and very assertive and independent, almost to a fault sometimes.
Evangeline Lilly
For me there's a need for balance - fulfilling the sensitive side, letting my guard down, holding back the warrior in me. And I have to be vulnerable which is very hard for me to do.
Evangeline Lilly
Nature inspires us. Not being able to reach out and touch it, or see it, makes me get really antsy.
Evangeline Lilly
I like to be around people who make me laugh. It's one of my favorite things on a set. I hate it when people take themselves serious in a film set.
Evangeline Lilly
I try my very hardest to remember that I don't have to be anything but Evangeline. That's all that's expected of me. And if I try to be more or less, I will fall flat on my face. So if I just continue to hold my head high and keep myself in check, I'm being who I was born to be.
Evangeline Lilly
If your home is peaceful, then you're going to go out in your day peacefully.
Evangeline Lilly
People initially think I'm a snob because I'm intensely private.
Evangeline Lilly
Outside of acting, the person that I admire the most is my mother.
Evangeline Lilly
I'm very proud of being a woman, and as a woman, I don't even like the word feminism because when I hear that word, I associate it with women trying to pretend to be men, and I'm not interested in trying to pretend to be a man. I don't want to embrace manhood, I want to embrace my womanhood.
