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
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
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 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
When I was on the 'Mickey Mouse Club,' there was Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling and Christine Aguilera. But they were 12 and I was 17, so there was a bit of an age difference.
Keri Russell
I would not let my children act when they are young!
Keri Russell
Dance has helped me with everything. It was a great foundation for discipline, hard work and, unfortunately, the ever-elusive idea of perfection. It lends itself easily to fight choreography, because that's what it really is. Choreography. And knowing how to move with someone.
Keri Russell
I feel better in my mind when I work out. It makes everything better.
Keri Russell
When you are 16 you are supposed to be doing cool things, like sneaking alcohol, not living in Disney World and doing skits about mice.
Keri Russell
I'm kind of a scaredy cat - I don't watch a ton of them. I mean, I started reaching this script at night and had to wait until the next morning to finish it so it would be light out. It really scared me. The scary movies I like are The Others and Pan's Labyrinth - they're so scary but they're about real things, and hopefully this is too.
Keri Russell
Eating a cookie never feels strange. I am a big believer in food in general.
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.
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
I'm naturally thin, so I don't have to work too hard at it. I love food, but I also love to work out. I think it makes everything work better.
Keri Russell
Acting is a strange profession, and, yes, sometimes I struggle with its worth, its value in the world.
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
I personally adore origin stories - they're so intriguing, learning what shaped and formed a character.
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
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
I am positive I was not a neglected child. I remember reading 'The Jungle Book' and 'The Sleeping Beauty.
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.
