More quotes by Maggie Gyllenhaal
People write things in newspapers about me that aren't true - or that are true. They take pictures of my kids on the way to school. I get a little bit inured to it in a way that I think most people probably aren't.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I need very little to work, because I learned how to make movies on tiny movies. It's all kind of easy for me.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Honestly, I'm always aware of the political implications of the movies that I make.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
The real test will be having a family when I have a family you have to come home, you have to eat dinner with your kids.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I'm still trying to figure out what the right line is between myself and the people I play. Sometimes I go too far one way or too far the other.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I said to Ramona [my daughter] once ... you should never look yourself up on the Internet. It's something I've learned.

Some people would say you need what you need to work, but I need very little to work, because I learned how to make movies on tiny movies. It's all kind of easy for me.
Maggie Gyllenhaal

Maggie Gyllenhaal
I do seem to have a bit of a predilection for movies that say something transgressive.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I remember people saying, Believe me, everything in your life is going to change... And I thought, Why? That's such a bourgeois way of thinking. And then you have a child and yes, everything changes. It affects the way we live, what we do, and where we go - everything. And I wouldn't have in any other way.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I would like to have a home in the country that I could go to. First in this country and the other in the Mediterranean.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Being a mother has absolutely forced me. You have to write things down and have systems for all of it. And then you set up systems and you realize they don't work.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I don't see that many movies lately that are actually about something, that are trying to challenge something about the way that people interact.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I studied English literature I took 2 independent religion classes, but I wasn't a religion major really.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
You're not going to do good work if you're not choosing something because it inspires you.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Acting is really important to me, so I think it would be really hard for me to do something I didn't believe in.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I liked that idea. Someone who's trying to perform herself and not succeeding.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Who can I trust? You have to invest in somebody and chances are you're probably going to invest in somebody who's going to deceive you. I've been conned a couple of times, but now I'm a little more savvy.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
I think most human beings, even if you're in a situation that's constricting or complicated or hard, they try to survive.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
