More quotes by Uma Thurman
It was brief, swift, and then it was done. It was a professional job. I needed to be kissed, and I was kissed.
Uma Thurman
I was an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up.
Uma Thurman
Change is usually preceded by some kind of drift.
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
My washing machine overwhelms me with its options and its sophistication.
Uma Thurman
We never left a set until we'd trashed it.
Uma Thurman
Modeling is basically 'Buy more stuff! Don't you want some more stuff? It will make you look ten years younger and men will like you!' If I'd wanted to be a salesperson, I would have got a job selling.
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
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.
Uma Thurman
I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.
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
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
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
There are so many ebbs and flows in life, but when you're raising small children, your family means everything.
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
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.
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
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
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
