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
Image
I was an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up.

Image
Life sweeps you up. Some people resist a lot. I probably haven't resisted very much.
Uma Thurman
Image
I wanted to seem completely invisible but whenever you're saying someone else's words and relaying the story of someone else's life, it's not you.
Uma Thurman
Image
It's hard sometimes if you think a character should look a certain way and you're being pushed to do it differently. I've had fights over that. That's why it's so important that you work with good people.

On a fundamental level - I know so many women in their 30s who didn't get married, or they did and it didn't work out, or they didn't have children because they were trying to get their careers going, or because they were expected to be independent, plus have a family. They didn't feel secure enough.

Desperation is the perfume of the young actor. It's so satisfying to have gotten rid of it. If you keep smelling it, it can drive you crazy. In this business a lot of people go nuts, go eccentric, even end up dead from it. Not my plan.

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.

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
Image
Even, today, when people tell me I'm beautiful, I do not believe a word of it.
Uma Thurman
Image
I think we are living in a time, where as a whole, as a community, people do want to push the boundaries.
Uma Thurman
Image
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.

For a writer, they say write what you know. As a performer, you find it in yourself, in your heart. You relate to the character. You try to live it, try to have it be real for you.

I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.

We're in an environment where everyone gets compartmentalized very quickly.

Fun wouldn't be the right word... it was the most difficult, challenging, physical, extraordinary stretch I've ever had to make, in all those wild regards.
