More quotes by Vera Farmiga
I have tender, romantic associations with upstate New York.
Vera Farmiga
When you encounter sophistication in the creation of a female character, you thank the writers and you claim it.
Vera Farmiga
I think I always try to be accommodating and open and available and proving for my director. I love to give as many takes as they want. I love to give them as many choices as they want.
Vera Farmiga
Editing yourself is like an irksome coin toss. You've got to strip yourself of super ego and operate from the id. Maybe I've got my Freud mixed up. It's just hard to trade a beauty shot for the performance with truth and a brightly lit zit.
Vera Farmiga
Honestly, I think a good film is spiritual, regardless of whether its subject is faith.
Vera Farmiga

Vera Farmiga

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
Your soul either feels lifted by something that you read, or it feels squashed by it.
Vera Farmiga
There's no wrong way to experience a film.
Vera Farmiga
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
Doubt is the middle position between knowledge and ignorance. It encompasses cynicism but also genuine questioning.
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
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
Chekhov, when it's done well and you're ready for it, can actually be quite funny.
Vera Farmiga
I chase after inspiring stories.
Vera Farmiga
Do I pray? Yes. Prayer is very important to me.
Vera Farmiga
I rely on my directors, a lot. I love being directed.
