More quotes by Vera Farmiga
I feel my fuller-bodied characters are all in the independent films I do, and in the studio productions, I have to work harder to dimensionalize the characters. And that's certainly part of the job description of an actor - that's what you're supposed to do - but you have to work harder at it in the characters that I've encountered in studio films.

Esquire's all about mommy issues now. Breastfeeding, vaccinations, playdate etiquette.

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
I am drawn to intimate, often uncomfortable portraits of a woman persevering and awakening.
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.
Vera Farmiga
I've done TV, but never where you're given this much time to live with a character, to study the tone and hone it and repair stuff, to go back and watch old episodes and go, Oh no, that's a misstep. That's a victory. I should do more of that, less of that.
Vera Farmiga
Faith is important to me.
Vera Farmiga
Do I observe holy days and holidays? Yeah, the ritual is very important to me. It's part of being Ukrainian Catholic. So every holy day we're baking pierogis and not eating meat.
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'm hooked on Polanski's films, his psychological thrillers. I love 'Rosemary's Baby,' I love 'Repulsion.'
Vera Farmiga
Do I pray? Yes. Prayer is very important to me.

There's just a deeper level of sophistication in the writing of female characters on TV.
Vera Farmiga
It's terrifying to be the lead. There's a moment of excitement, and then pure terror.
