Evangeline Lilly
I'm a very stubborn woman and I'm from a very stubborn family of headstrong women. I have sisters, so the women rule the coop in my house.

Evangeline Lilly
I enjoy the idea that even though I'm resting, I'm accomplishing something by reading a book.
Evangeline Lilly
I was fortunate enough to be one of those stories where I was scouted on the street by somebody and actually refused to go to the agency, and was approached on different occasions and finally kind of caved and said, 'OK, I'll try it and see what happens.
Evangeline Lilly
There is a little bit of evil in all of us, and it's very easy to draw that out.
Evangeline Lilly
I am who I am and I am what I am. And it's beautiful. And it's okay even if it doesn't look like the sexiest Victoria Secret model. It also boils down to my interactions with people.

In your 20s you can be pretty, but you don't accomplish real beauty until you find wisdom and depth.
Evangeline Lilly
I tended to be a solitary young girl, and I still am. I would like to find a quiet corner and color in my coloring book. When I think back, I made that corner mine, not really caring about the rest of the house.
Evangeline Lilly
My bedroom is my sanctuary. It's the only place in the house that has a beautiful lush shag rug, which is my favorite.
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
I was a die-hard fan of these books [The Hobbit] before the films ever came out. And when I say die-hard, I wasn't the person who could speak Elvish, but I really loved them.
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
I have two roommates, so it's a challenge to keep the house the way I like.
Evangeline Lilly
I eventually want to come back to Canada, to disappear, have nobody know me, and just be a writer and do what I want to do.
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 don't want everyone to think of me as just 'that kid who called Jesse Jackson a communist in middle school.' That's why I decided to become a famous actress.
Evangeline Lilly
I think that being isolated from the Hollywood world of premieres and red carpet events was probably good for me because I could ease into those at will and by my own choice. But in other aspects, when it comes to fanfare, Hawaii is nuts and in L.A. they're all so jaded. They don't care.
