More quotes by Vera Farmiga
I just hate one-dimensional portrayals of religion it's too cheap and easy to do, and ignores the nuances that go into having a belief system.
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 cannot even imagine college. I'm white-knuckling it just letting my son go to kindergarten for eight hours a day.
Vera Farmiga
I've played a lot of mothers in my movies.
Vera Farmiga
I'm thinking about anything and everything. I'm making stuff up in my head, I'm using sense memory. Sometimes when it doesn't come and you've got no choice because you're getting paid to do it, you grasp at straws. It's always easy now with my kids. I just create some what-ifs in my head, something horrible that would devastate me as a mother.

I look for struggle in the roles I choose - struggle and perseverance.
Vera Farmiga

Vera Farmiga
I cherish each director that I have. I want to be maneuvered out of my comfort zones. I don't have the time to prepare.
Vera Farmiga
I am drawn to intimate, often uncomfortable portraits of a woman persevering and awakening.
Vera Farmiga
I think all religions can agree on certain definitions of God and concepts of God, like God being the god of love, the great 'I am' energy.
Vera Farmiga
Your soul either feels lifted by something that you read, or it feels squashed by it.
Vera Farmiga
I don't necessarily need Hollywood.
Vera Farmiga
Partying has never been my thing. I've been around some wild people. I've been in the same room and watched them experiment, and that's been entertaining.
Vera Farmiga
I'm pretty squeaky clean. No big tragedies in my childhood or adolescence or adulthood. I've had a very easygoing, simple life.
Vera Farmiga
In the quiet moments, the discoveries are made.
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
There are some times when I think acting can be a noble profession. And when those rare roles come along, like Down to the Bone, you have the opportunity to be of service.
Vera Farmiga
I love to be surprised.

The writers could always do an about-face and change everything
