I grew up understanding the pros and cons of what you're getting into and knowing what comes with your job. I like to keep my private life private, and then work is work. I feel so far I've had a really good balance with that.

More quotes by Lily Collins
I don't wear dresses all the time - it's nice to save those moments for certain occasions and to make it feel extra special.
Lily Collins
My advice for girls who are waiting for their Prince Charming is to be open for anything. Be open to new experiences, be open to the idea that it may take longer than you want, but if you're open to meeting new people and new adventures, then love will come along.
Lily Collins
Everything for me has happened so quickly. I finished shooting 'The Blind Side' not this past June, but the June before, and all of sudden up to now, it seems like it's gone from zero to 60 for me. I feel so fortunate to be able to say that.
Lily Collins
Starting at 16 years old I was in boardrooms of older executives pitching talk shows. I wanted to be the youngest talk show host for a really long time.
Lily Collins
I'm drawn to roles that have real substance, that aren't just the victim or the teenage girl or the girlfriend.
Lily Collins
But the thing is, I was never looking at a strategic way of gaining fame. That's not why I'm doing this.
Lily Collins
I was never afraid of going after what I wanted, and making that known, and being vocal about it.
Lily Collins
There's this common perception that having a famous last name is all you need. A surname may get you a meeting, but if there's no talent you won't get the part.

It's great when improv is encouraged. It's a really fun thing. It depends on who's in the movie and how their process works, as well. It takes a director who is open to that because you have a script, but then something funny could happen on set. So, to have people around you who encourage improv is really exciting.
Lily Collins
To play someone I loved in my favourite fairytale as a kid is a total honour.
Lily Collins
When it comes to the work, I'm excited to see what people think. When it comes to the private life, that's when I don't pay attention.
Lily Collins
The idea that I get to travel and do what I love and call it a job is just a blessing.
Lily Collins
I don't really have a favorite song. Music is such a big part of who I am, and speaks to so many different emotions inside me, that I don't have an all-time favorite.
Lily Collins
It used to bother me - having bigger, fuller brows. I even plucked them once so I'd fit in, but I hated them and couldn't wait for them to grow back. Now I embrace them. I realized the quirky things that make you different are what make you beautiful.
Lily Collins
I like to be comfortable but I also like to look put together all the time.
Lily Collins
I’m a huge fan of the books myself, so to know that I got to play Clary – who’s a literary heroine to me – was a huge honour.
Lily Collins
In the '30s, every day was an event. And, as much as I love that idea, I think nowadays it's nice to have the differentiation of when you dress up and when you don't.
Lily Collins
To look into that persons eyes and find yourself so completely lost in another world, a world full of absolute comfort and happiness.
Lily Collins
I think it's important to relate to one another about issues that you're having, because the second you open up and someone else says, 'Oh, me too. I feel the same way,' then all of a sudden, you feel more at peace with yourself and you can feel more confident with who you are.
Lily Collins
If you don't have that trust in the backbone of the project, you may not know what you're making.
