Motherhood definitely took the focus off of my work. And I didn't mind. I had a few panics when I thought that if I wanted to work I couldn't get a job anymore and then I would get one once in a while and it would make me feel better.

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
But I had a very traditional background as well. My parents are neat people.
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 an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up.
Uma Thurman

Uma Thurman
Change is usually preceded by some kind of drift.
Uma Thurman
If you're not ready to be in a relationship, going out with someone much younger than you is probably a great idea, because you both can have a decent experience and hopefully nobody will end up feeling cheated when it ends.

Uma Thurman
My washing machine overwhelms me with its options and its sophistication.
Uma Thurman
It's taken me a long time to learn to accept the risks and just be willing to try it over and over again.
Uma Thurman
When I was first going through my separation, someone said to me, 'It will take you half as long as you were in the relationship before you'll feel better.' And I wanted to knock them out cold across the table. Because, of course, I was in agony. And the last thing I wanted to think was that I was going to stay that way for a long time.
Uma Thurman
I do think that what's wonderful in life is that we gain perspective as we take on different roles that are mind and heart opening.
Uma Thurman
More than just romantic comedy, I like romances: drama romance, romance comedy, comedy romance. I also go to the movies to escape. There are times when you go to learn, when you go to be moved, you go to be transported, and there are really times when you go to escape. And I personally escape more happily into a romance than I do violent movies.
Uma Thurman
Nobody seemed to have any perspective any longer. Those were low points. But we got through it.
Uma Thurman
I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.
Uma Thurman
But I think it is always difficult to have high expectations of yourself or anyone else.
Uma Thurman
I never ever slept again after my first pregnancy.
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'm very happy at home. I love to just hang out with my daughter, I love to work in my garden. I'm not a gaping hole of need.
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.
