Evangeline Lilly
I am so glad that I get to maintain a relatively down-to-earth lifestyle.
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.
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 are jobs to be created on both sides of the climate argument. Whether we are investing in oil or sun, coal or wind, gas or algae, the economy will be stimulated by the investment. The economy, unlike each of us, is not swayed by ideology.

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.

I think one of the things that is easy to have happened in a superhero story is that the female character, whether she be a heroine or not, can often be the wart on the man.
Evangeline Lilly
My heart is in helping people and in the less materialistic side of things, but there's the side of me that's more polished.
Evangeline Lilly
I cried myself to sleep wishing I was ugly because men leered and disrespected me, because they assumed things about my mental capacity or my physical willingness based on the way I look.
Evangeline Lilly
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
A month and a half after my first audition, I won the role on Lost.
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
The way I've been able to embrace fame is by realizing that celebrity is just a means to send whatever message you want out into the world.
Evangeline Lilly
If your home is peaceful, then you're going to go out in your day peacefully.
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
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.
