More quotes by Uma Thurman
To be with a man who hasn't tried every line, who hasn't broken up with a woman every which way you can break up with them, is kind of nice.
Uma Thurman
It's an interesting thing to be in your forties and evaluate success and take ownership of some disasters and some pain and try to forgive a little bit - yourself and others.
Uma Thurman
I think everybody has a hard time connecting, but as you get older and you want more and you expect more and you know more, it's just different. If you start wanting too much from it without it naturally unfolding, then that makes it bad. If you start not wanting anything, then you are not serious. I mean it's just this conundrum of issues.
Uma Thurman
You know what daring really is to me? It's maybe much more simple: the willingness to get up and try it again. It's not about whether or not you fall down, it's how you get back up. And I've taken quite a few tumbles, myself.
Uma Thurman
Before I had my child, I thought I knew all the boundaries of myself, that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out, to realize your love is inexhaustible.
Uma Thurman
Most films these days are men's stories. Women are for add-on romance. That's very hard.
Uma Thurman
I'd like to classify my life as a romantic comedy. Unfortunately I feel it's probably more like a TV reality show.
Uma Thurman
I was not particularly bright, I wasn't very athletic, I was a little too tall, odd, funny looking, I was just really weird as a kid.
Uma Thurman
I used to be more paranoid and stressed, constantly worrying about my Plan B. But the truth is I don't have one.
Uma Thurman
Reading recent history is good to humble yourself, and also to feel some hopefulness that there is progress.
Uma Thurman
One feels so despairing on some levels about what's going on in our culture, in regards to things like gender inequality. But there is progress. There is enhanced empathy and respect for others, we are fighting the tide, even though it seems like a tug of war sometimes.
Uma Thurman
Life sweeps you up. Some people resist a lot. I probably haven't resisted very much.
Uma Thurman
I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.
Uma Thurman
Thats when you know youve found somebody special. When you can just shut the f**k up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence.
Uma Thurman
Buddhism has had a major effect on who I am and how I think about the world. What I have learned is that I like all religions, but only parts of them.
Uma Thurman
I love comedy. I don't approach it any different. I'm not a comedian. I'm not a stand-up. I just do it like a part and personally, I love to watch comedies. If you don't get to do what you like to watch you get frustrated.
Uma Thurman
There are so many ebbs and flows in life, but when you're raising small children, your family means everything.
Uma Thurman
The argument about marriage equality will one day seem as arcane and shocking to us as the fact that Rosa Parks had to get up and go to the back of the bus.
Uma Thurman
It's one of the things that weirdly I always used to like about my job: that expressing the emotions of a writer or someone creative and breathing empathy and life into a character people can then identify with, that they'd feel less alone.
Uma Thurman
I certainly know I have been blessed with much more empathy than I ever knew I would feel for other people.
Uma Thurman
