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.

More quotes by 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
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.
Uma Thurman
Tall, sandy blonde, with sort of blue eyes, skinny in places, fat in others. An average gal.
Uma Thurman
And I haven't read a lot of blogs but if someone writes about what they care about I'm sure it's interesting.
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
Nobody seemed to have any perspective any longer. Those were low points. But we got through it.
Uma Thurman
Boredom is a great motivator.
Uma Thurman
I never ever slept again after my first pregnancy.
Uma Thurman
Change is usually preceded by some kind of drift.
Uma Thurman
We never left a set until we'd trashed it.
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
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
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.
Uma Thurman
I love and adore being a mother. It's the greatest gift I've ever been given.
Uma Thurman
Socially, most people delayed motherhood for five to 10 years around us.
Uma Thurman
I had to go to a mirror and look at it. I couldn't picture myself in my own head. I had no image beyond a stick figure. I wasn't a mean person as a kid, or dumb, and something has to be said to justify excluding you.
Uma Thurman
I guess I'm lucky to have been blindsided. I'm lucky to have gotten into fistfights, in a way. I'm lucky I learned how to stop them.
Uma Thurman
Three tomatoes are walking down the street-a poppa tomato, a mamma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and smooshes him and says, Catch up.
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
It is technically a failure when you don't try.
Uma Thurman
