I don't think you could get anything worse than losing a child. I think if my child died, I would prefer it if I were dead.

More quotes by Saoirse Ronan
It's too distracting to read about yourself. You want to be perfect and you want everyone to love you, and that's never going to happen.
Saoirse Ronan
I think it's important that we have strong, female characters in movies now, which can really leave an impression on people - especially young people - and that they're not 'sexy' or 'cool'.
Saoirse Ronan
I did find New Zealand similar to Ireland. The people, obviously. I found that, ironically, although these two countries were very far away from each other, their humor was so similar and their outlook on things was quite similar as well.
Saoirse Ronan
I certainly don't feel like I am desperate to run away from a film set. I love the hustle and bustle. Everything is sort of mad right before a take, and then it just settles, and you've got these two minutes of a bit of magic. I just love that in film.
Saoirse Ronan
We've done a lot of films now about the IRA, we can move on from all that. I loved '71 because I think it showed a very honest trail and what it was actually like. It wasn't one-sided. I really respect ['71 director] Yann [Demange] for what he did. But we have done a lot of those things.
Saoirse Ronan
When I can't get the character out of my head, and I'm in my bedroom and I start to actually act out the scenes that I've read in a script, I think okay, I really want to do this.
Saoirse Ronan
My whole life I try to make into a comedy, so it would be nice to see that onscreen.
Saoirse Ronan
I've always been quite mature because of the way my parents brought me up. They were very good at talking to me like a person rather than a baby, and I was around so many actors and directors from such a young age because my dad is an actor. I was more comfortable with adults rather than actually being an adult child.
Saoirse Ronan
There's so many modern films where the fans take one side or the other. I'm hoping this isn't going to be like that I'm hoping it isn't that kind of film at all. What I would love for the audience to take from it is to understand why she was so stuck in the middle and confused.
Saoirse Ronan
I like films where there's a relationship between two women. I always think that's lovely to watch on the screen.
Saoirse Ronan
I like my characters to be ones I think about long after I've finished reading the script.
Saoirse Ronan
I've basically grown up with Harry Potter, as so many kids my age have. It's kind of a part of my life.
Saoirse Ronan
I love cleaning. I love mopping the floor. If you need your floor mopped, I'm there.
Saoirse Ronan
I've found that I'd be the first one to cut lines.
Saoirse Ronan
I don't know what kind of swag I'd get if I were extra Irish. It would just be, like, extra potatoes. Or like a free pint of Guinness.
Saoirse Ronan
Learning is the most important thing, no mater how you do it, or where you do it, or who you do it with.
Saoirse Ronan
Sometimes the director will want you to write about the character, sometimes he'll want you to live in the location that the character is from or something like that, but I don't usually make a lot of notes or anything like that.
Saoirse Ronan
Lindsay Lohan was the 'It' girl from, like, 14. That's a lot of pressure.
Saoirse Ronan
I think if my child died I would prefer it if I were dead.
Saoirse Ronan
If I'm in the middle of a take and I start to think about what I'm doing, I just mess up and I have to stop and so I find that for me, you really need to trust your instinct.
Saoirse Ronan
