More quotes by Vera Farmiga
I'm hooked on Polanski's films, his psychological thrillers. I love 'Rosemary's Baby,' I love 'Repulsion.'
Vera Farmiga
I cannot even imagine college. I'm white-knuckling it just letting my son go to kindergarten for eight hours a day.
Vera Farmiga
It's terrifying to be the lead. There's a moment of excitement, and then pure terror.
Vera Farmiga
My personality is just innately even-keeled. I'm not such a huge daredevil. Which is not to say I'm not a passionate woman. I don't know, maybe it's my physiological makeup, but I don't like the feeling of anything in my system, other than a glass of wine now and then.
Vera Farmiga
I'm a full-time mom. I've never felt as prepared, as before maternity.

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.

I’m someone who can sit in a Buddhist temple, and I can sit with Pentecostals or with Orthodox Jews, and I still feel like I am in tune with all of them.

There's just a deeper level of sophistication in the writing of female characters on TV.
Vera Farmiga
No role is more challenging, rewarding and inspiring than my real-life role as a mom and a wife.

I've always believed that if you are precise in your thoughts, it's not the lines you say that are important - it's what exists between the lines. What I'm compelled by most is that transparency of thought, what is left unspoken.
Vera Farmiga
I just can't feel lukewarm about a character. I either despise her, admire her, or don't understand her and want to understand her.
Vera Farmiga
I bet you could look at every single thing I've ever done and reduce it to that parenting schematic.
Vera Farmiga
I love Saturday nights with my best friend and a big bowl of pasta, wanting a good scare, something that will say, 'Listen, your life is not as bad as this. Your life can be so much worse'.
Vera Farmiga
The experience of giving birth itself made me feel more womanly.
Vera Farmiga
Doubt is the middle position between knowledge and ignorance. It encompasses cynicism but also genuine questioning.
Vera Farmiga
I just want to make sure that the thing that I see in it initially, that I think it can be, is not just going to be a horror film and reduced to a jump here and a scream there. But that you can take something away from it.
Vera Farmiga
In the quiet moments, the discoveries are made.
Vera Farmiga
Ruminants are a perfectly normal thing to possess when you live in upstate New York. It's just moving scenery. It's kind of like the equivalent of Great Danes. It's the way you keep your grass mowed. It's the way you keep your weed-whacking to a minimum.
Vera Farmiga
The biggest research of all when I do a character is self-examination. You look at yourself and you ask, 'How am I similar to this person and how am I different?'
Vera Farmiga
Not just as an actress, but on a human-being level, I've experienced frustration on many different levels. [With my] career, it would be more the frustration of not always finding challenging material or inspiring material ... [Acting is] therapeutic for me. I'm pretty accommodating.
