You can't have a movie with a group of people that are significant players in the story, that push forward the plot, without introducing at least one or two of them.

I love getting older! I really believe that a woman doesn't reach her peak until her 40s.
Evangeline Lilly
I am so glad that I get to maintain a relatively down-to-earth lifestyle.
Evangeline Lilly
I think men don't know what they want, so the idea of not knowing what they're getting makes it a little easier on them.
Evangeline Lilly
I started to do everything I could to succeed, but found that the more successful I became, the less people liked me.
Evangeline Lilly
I just wanted friends. I just wanted people to like me. I just wanted for things to be simple and good. So, for five years I actively sought out mediocrity.

Even though I'm resting I'm accomplishing something by sewing that shirt that I've been meaning to sew for weeks. And it's relaxing. It's so very meditative and quiet and enjoyable. But at least I'm producing something. I'm being productive in some way. I have a very hard time being completely idle.

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
When I got old enough to date, I realized that Valentine's Day is just a commercial marketing scam to make men feel bad. So I let my boyfriends off the hook.
Evangeline Lilly
Originally, I wanted to do humanitarian work. I actually feel that getting into acting, which fate has led me to, is my window and path into humanitarian work. I always said I want to do something important. And I feel this work is what's helping me get there.
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
I just really like ants, and I really like science. I was interested and curious about the quantum world and the physics behind how it all works.
Evangeline Lilly
Acting is something I appreciate, and I think it's been an amazing experience. But I'm not passionate about acting the way you probably should be to call yourself an actor.
Evangeline Lilly
Ironically, when I hit adolescence, I was approached about modeling and acting all the time. And, for five years, I said, No, I'm not interested. I want a simple life, I don't want to be in the spotlight.
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.
Evangeline Lilly
I love being outside - that's where I'm the happiest.
Evangeline Lilly
My valentine is always my dad.
