More quotes by 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 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
I am so glad that I get to maintain a relatively down-to-earth lifestyle.
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
One of the great pleasures of working in Middle Earth is you get to be another being.
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 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 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
I would love to pretend I don't diet, but I work very hard. I stay active and eat very healthy. Anybody who says otherwise is either unhealthy or lying! I will admit that I'm addicted to sugar - licorice, Jujubees and jelly candies. And I actually love bran muffins!
Evangeline Lilly
I actually write as a passion, as something I actually am more passionate about than acting.
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'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.

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
Every night I bring home flowers and burn candles. And I have a real sense that home is what starts everything inside of you.
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 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
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
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.
