More quotes by 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.

I don't think it takes a brain surgeon to understand how to read a story.
Uma Thurman
Image
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.

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.

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.

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.

I love and adore being a mother. It's the greatest gift I've ever been given.
Uma Thurman
Image
It's taken me a long time to learn to accept the risks and just be willing to try it over and over again.

Boredom is a great motivator.
Uma Thurman
Image
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.

Daring to me is having courage it's a daily meditation to take breath and find strength.
Uma Thurman
Image
There are so many ebbs and flows in life, but when you're raising small children, your family means everything.
Uma Thurman
Image
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.

I've learned that every working mom is a superwoman.

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.
