More quotes by Evangeline Lilly
I'm a good Canadian girl. I miss all that good stuff. I miss tobogganing and I miss snowboarding, but I've also learned to surf and I've become a water baby which I used to be relatively terrified of the water and I kayak all the time now and I'm able to run year round on the beach which you can't obviously do in Canada.

The difference in my body from pre-pregnancy to post-baby was night and day. I didn't have the strength, I didn't have the flexibility, I didn't have the stamina, I didn't have the mobility. I felt like I was handicapped.

I like fantasy. I like worlds where sometimes you need the special effects to make it come alive, but it's not so fun acting it.
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
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
To put it simply - you know, a lot of people believe that the benefit of this job is fame and fortune. I believe that you pay for the fortune through the fame. I don't buy into the notion that being famous is somehow a good thing, or an exciting thing, or a wonderful thing.
Evangeline Lilly
I adore having people over to my home. My number one reason I love that is because I love to see people at ease with each other.
Evangeline Lilly
Outside of acting, the person that I admire the most is my mother.
Evangeline Lilly
My family didn't have a lot of money, and I'm grateful for that. Money is the longest route to happiness.

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
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.

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.
