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
Image
I'd like to classify my life as a romantic comedy. Unfortunately I feel it's probably more like a TV reality show.

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.

There are so many ebbs and flows in life, but when you're raising small children, your family means everything.
Uma Thurman
Image
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
Image
I still love the people I’ve loved, even if I cross the street to avoid them.
Uma Thurman
Image
The argument about marriage equality will one day seem as arcane and shocking to us as the fact that Rosa Parks had to get up and go to the back of the bus.
Uma Thurman

Most films these days are men's stories. Women are for add-on romance. That's very hard.
Uma Thurman
Image
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 think that life force is invaluable.
