I think the first time I realized I was actually acting was during Felicity. Before that, I was just going along for the ride.

More quotes by Keri Russell
I was a huge fan of 'Arrested Development,' and there's just something it tickles in me and it's bright and it's hilarious.
Keri Russell
I don't think, as a 15-year-old, you're that conscious about a lifetime career. I didn't think: I'm a serious actor. I never studied acting or anything when I was that age.
Keri Russell
Everyone should dance more. Everyone should walk more.
Keri Russell
You instantly become less selfish. You can't be the biggest person in the world anymore-they are. [Motherhood] really grounds you.
Keri Russell
We shot the movie [Waitress] in 20 days so there wasn't a lot of time to learn. There wasn't a lot of pie baking going on, at least not by me. But we always had pies while we were filming - we ate two different pies every day for lunch!
Keri Russell
I know not every mom is a secret KGB spy, but every mom has this whole other life. Every dad and every person has this whole other life.
Keri Russell
Really, it [the Waitress] was a story about believing in yourself ultimately, and caring enough about yourself to change your life.
Keri Russell
With a pie, the crust is a real delicacy. It's very hard to get it just right because it's got to be cold and just the right consistency. There's a whole art to it and I haven't learned how to do it [filming in Waitress].There's not a lot of time for cooking, especially when you're shooting nights or working until 11pm.
Keri Russell
I am crazy for dessert. I eat everything. No one should be denied anything... just don't eat the whole thing.
Keri Russell
I am positive I was not a neglected child. I remember reading 'The Jungle Book' and 'The Sleeping Beauty.
Keri Russell
Eating a cookie never feels strange. I am a big believer in food in general.
Keri Russell
I would splurge on a great pair of high heels, because you can wear them to something fancy, but regular clothes? I'd rather go on a trip than spend $10,000 on clothes, and fly first class as a treat.
Keri Russell
Anything that opens you up emotionally is going to impact your acting. Parenthood, becoming a mom, certainly does that.
Keri Russell
I love Cheryl [Hines] so much and had so much fun with her. Off set we got on so well and would tell stories.
Keri Russell
Freddie [Highmore] is great in the movie [August Rush]. It comes out this Fall and I play a young cellist, a prodigy, who is touring and doing concerts. She's very young and has a one-night fling with an Irish rocker, played Jonathan Rhys Meyers, who is also a really talented musician.
Keri Russell
That's interesting to hear you say that because watching it [the Waitress] for the first time at Sundance was fascinating - it was so different from the experience of making it.
Keri Russell
Who knows? Maybe years from now I'll be on a ranch in Colorado with 10 kids. The whole point of life is to experience a little bit of everything, and I think it's better when there are a few surprises thrown in.
Keri Russell
There's no shortage of female role models. They're everywhere - in history, in literature, in the news. Just look around.
Keri Russell
While 'Felicity' was successful in the States, and I had opportunities to do other stuff, I didn't want to do anything to make myself more famous. I wasn't dealing well with the celebrity of all of that. I was 23 - just a kid - and not coming from money, it was all just too much. I just wanted to slow it down a little bit, and gain control.
Keri Russell
People expect all women to react the same to pregnancy. But anyone who's been around pregnant women knows that it's not all cutesy and sweet. You spaz out and you're angry and you have tantrums.
