I just wanted to make sure that yes, that those horror - they worked as a genre. To me, I just wanted to be touched by the film in the way that I saw plausible. Which is the story about compassion - giving and receiving it in those desperate times of need.

Yeah, I think it's like any God-given gift. You writers have the gift of perception. If you don't use it, you're going to lose it. And it's the same thing with you [Lorraine], it's God-given.
Vera Farmiga
The nature of evil, the nature of it, it exists. It exists and I think within us we have the tools. If we have the will, we can combat it. I think the power is within us and it lies in our own conceptualization of God and positivity and compassion and love.
Vera Farmiga
It's such a measure of your solidarity with Ed, that when you would give lectures, he would be wearing a tartan tie that matched. And I demanded that outfit, I thought it was so punk - her long skirt, she looked like a Scottish queen, so regal.
Vera Farmiga
There are women who make things better, there are women who change things, there are women who make things happen, who make a difference. I want to be one of those women.
Vera Farmiga
It's thematic in my career, if you look at most of my choices. It is some level of exploration of maternal angst and maternal heroism.
Vera Farmiga
It's a delicate thing for me, with how involved I am in social media and being a part of people's lives in a way that they want me to.
Vera Farmiga
The limelight is a tricky place, because you can't believe what's going on around you. You stop observing. You stop perceiving. You stop extending yourself, and you become isolated.
Vera Farmiga
You ought to have a perspective when you're making a film.
