More quotes by Uma Thurman

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
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 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
But I had a very traditional background as well. My parents are neat people.
Uma Thurman
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.
Uma Thurman
I guess somehow I got a reputation of being able to dance.
Uma Thurman
I was an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up.
Uma Thurman
We're in an environment where everyone gets compartmentalized very quickly.
Uma Thurman
My washing machine overwhelms me with its options and its sophistication.
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
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.
