There can be no better measure of our governance than the way we treat our children, and no greater failing on our part than to allow them to be subjected to violence, abuse or exploitation.

More quotes by Jessica Lange
One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.
Jessica Lange
I regret those times when I've chosen the dark side. I've wasted enough time not being happy.
Jessica Lange
For me, nothing has ever taken precedence over being a mother and having a family and a home.
Jessica Lange
I never just slide through anything. I explore everything to the fullest, whether good or bad.
Jessica Lange
Families survive, one way or another. You have a tie, a connection that exists long after death, through many lifetimes.
Jessica Lange
My one big regret was that there were no scenes that I could play with Eva Marie Saint. I hounded them. I said figure out some way, I just want to play a scene with this woman. But there was no way to make it work.
Jessica Lange
The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother, you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.
Jessica Lange
I like playing characters who are out there on the edge, where they can explode at any moment or fall off the precipice.
Jessica Lange
I worked on my voice for 'Sweet Dreams' but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy's actual singing voice. That was my way into that character.
Jessica Lange
Be present. I would encourage you with all my heart just to be present. Be present and open to the moment that is unfolding before you. Because, ultimately, your life is made up of moments. So don't miss them by being lost in the past or anticipating the future.
Jessica Lange
I love men. I've always been drawn to poets, artists, and madmen. Sometimes all three in one
Jessica Lange
I've got nothing left to lose at this point. The work I've done is out there.
Jessica Lange
Photography was a blessing because it filled my time.
Jessica Lange
The only place I've felt was really my home is my cabin up north. There's something in the water there that connects me to that place. There's also this sense of isolation and loneliness about it that I've never been able to shake.
Jessica Lange
Sometimes the odds are against you-the director doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or something falls apart in the production, or you're working with an actor who's just unbearable.
Jessica Lange
Successful model? That's a myth. The year I modeled was the most painful year of my life. Editors would always talk to you in the third person as though you were merely a piece of merchandise.
Jessica Lange
Don't be absent from your own life.
Jessica Lange
Digital doesn't interest me. It's too many steps removed from the actual tactile thing. I still read books. I don't read online.
Jessica Lange
If I didn't have children I'd be a much better actress. I wouldn't be so distracted. I could pour 100 percent of my energies into it, to promote the investigation which acting is.
Jessica Lange
To work with a director that has emotional commitment and passion toward the characters, and the piece, and the experiences, it only enriches your work.
