More quotes by 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
I've learned that every working mom is a superwoman.
Uma Thurman
And also I think particularly as a female, you're taught to be defensive your whole life. You're taught not to be aggressive.
Uma Thurman
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.
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
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
Nobody makes a movie about a woman in her mid-30s who wishes she could have met someone to have children with and still doesn't know where to find a date.
Uma Thurman
I'm lucky to have been raised in the most beautiful place - Amherst, Massachusetts, state of my heart. I'm more patriotic to Massachusetts than to almost any place.
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
So, you know, parenting is a very intimate and amazing experience and one of the best experiences of my life.
Uma Thurman
I certainly know I have been blessed with much more empathy than I ever knew I would feel for other people.
Uma Thurman
Reading recent history is good to humble yourself, and also to feel some hopefulness that there is progress.
Uma Thurman
Tall, sandy blonde, with sort of blue eyes, skinny in places, fat in others. An average gal.
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
I think we are living in a time, where as a whole, as a community, people do want to push the boundaries.
Uma Thurman
I still love the people I’ve loved, even if I cross the street to avoid them.
Uma Thurman
I don't think it takes a brain surgeon to understand how to read a story.
Uma Thurman
I love and adore being a mother. It's the greatest gift I've ever been given.
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'm an actress and mom, and I probably don't have enough of an active spiritual life. And I don't know why people run around calling themselves by the names of religions when they don't actually practise them.
Uma Thurman
